A member asked:

Why am i shy at 20?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many people are.: Shyness can stay with us for many years. It can also come and go. Twenty is a prime time for shyness because twenty year olds are often doing new things and are placing themselves in new situations. As you have more adult experiences you will come more comfortable with yourself and your shyness will likely ebb away.
