There’s hardly any doubt on the fact that shyness is a wonderful emotion. It’s because of this emotion we stay away from the bad habits. This emotion helps us to stay away from the doings which are socially unacceptable. Shyness is the main reason which keeps us away from the bad doings such as stealing, extra-marital affair and etc.

Ears or face turning red, head or shoulder getting lowered or simply taking away the eyes from the person who is accusing, are the common expression of shyness. In fact when we feel embarrassed because a person is accusing us for something, we tend to lose our self in front of that person. Some of us might even wish if we could just hide under the ground where we are standing.  All of these expression of shyness shows one simple fact, when a person feels shy he tends to hide himself and that’s the reason why it is so difficult to identify this emotion.

Shyness can turn one’s life into misery even though it’s a wonderful emotion, when this shyness is expressed in weird way or when one is having excessive shyness. At the point of excessive shyness, shyness disguises itself into proudness, depression, stubbornness or just the habit of closing oneself from others. Psychologists now believe that the biggest cause of depression is shyness.And also sometimes the sudden burst of anger could be because of an embarrassing experience’s similar from the childhood.

Many people find that guilty feeling and shyness are similar. The truth is the difference between them is very clear. Things we have done or being accused for doing and feeling bad about that defines guilty feeling.  Since guilty feeling involves wrong doings overcoming that feeling can be easy. Just admit the wrong doing and ask for forgiveness. But the problem arises when it is shyness as it gets difficult to get over that.

Psychologists state that every human being can be a victim of shyness. Usually we get shy on three different sort of things, weakness, faults or immoral adultery.  Being shy about our body is another factor of shyness. For example, if I had reduced my food intake I would not have so fat. Or my nose is so ugly. My legs are so small and weak. We can refer this kind of shyness as hidden shyness.

The people who suffers from the hidden shyness are always confused about feeling being either proud or shyness.
