Cure?: I agree with Dr. Adelstein. Shyness and social anxiety disorders are not the same thing. You could be evaluated to determine if you have a social anxiety disorder. Regardless of whether medications were appropriate , I would recommend cognitive behavioral therapy. Drugs would not CURE shyness.
