Shyness is a problem that is common (0) to many people. In (16) fact , according to Mr Zimbardo, a distinguished psychologist at Stanford University, eight (17) out of ten people are reported to (18) have been shy at some (19) time in their lives. Most people (20) who have this condition, suffer feelings of discomfort and anxiety at the (21) thought of meeting others, especially at social gatherings (22) like parties. Keeping away from such situations is not really a solution, of course, and if a shy person can manage to overcome their fears they (23) will gain a feeling of self-satisfaction as (24) well as improving their social life. However, if the case of shyness is severe, when important occasions are missed or a person’s social, educational or professional life is affected, (25) then the label “shyness” is inappropriate. (26) At this stage, it is termed “social phobia”. Those suffering (27) from this condition are very often bright, talented and sensitive people. But feelings of social isolation, resulting (28) in loneliness, can lead to additional problems (29) such as alcohol abuse or addiction to medication. Fortunately, a number of treatments are available and come in the form of individual (30) or group therapy and training. Therefore, a person who has social phobia has an excellent chance of recovery.
