Social Anxiety? I don't know what's wrong with me

How do I stop being so awkward? I consider myself a very talkative and lively person, but when I am around strangers or even friends who I take longer to get comfortable around, I become so closed off. I get shy and boring. In theory, I like parties, I've been to a party where I've had a great time and I was more myself than ever, but then other times I'm nervous for no reason. I kept thinking I'm nervous around certain people because I haven't know them for long enough so I'm not comfortable yet, but there's a friend I've JUST met and I'm more comfortable around him than ANYONE. I don't know why my brain works like this. WHY? I just want to have fun and stop being boring.

@kloveskittens there's nothing wrong with you ❤ social anxietys are unfortunately very common. Some people we automatically click with, like we've known them all our lives. But others we dont, it's a normal thing ❤ the only thing you can do is try to be yourself, and if something becomes awkward for you. Then take a step back ❤❤
