How can I open up to people more even if it scares me?

It's threatening to open up or extend the comfort zone. But, as we do things beyond your comfort zone new strengths develop. I use 10-15 minutes or something like that as needed for allowing or challenging myself to stay in that uncomfortable zone of communication. I take it that 15-20 minutes as opportunity sometime or other time just set aside to be uncomfortable on opening up to people. In those minutes, I am not at myself but something who don't have ego, fear, or threat to open up. That duration usually shrinks or extends but doing so is relieving and also give accomplishment feel

This can be a very tricky question, especially if you are naturally a private person and cannot easily share things about yourself and your life with other people. However, in order to make connections with others, especially if we want those connections to be meaningful, we have to open up more. I feel like we might want to start by sharing anecdotes of ours that aren’t all that essential to who we are, yet can give much space for other people to share their own and become comfortable around us. And by seeing that they are enjoying our company and that they are comfortable, we can eventually start sharing more stuff of our own as well. It is a process and it takes time, and that is okay.

Until you know that the people you open are not here to get at you or use what you said against you, you can open up freely and without having to be scared. The only reason one would be scared to open up to people is if you feel you will be judged, thought of differently, laughed at, etc. You have to let yourself take the risk to open up and trust them. (preferred to only tell people who you trust as not everyone needs to know everything you go through.) After you open up, you'll feel so much better and you'll be relieved you did open up at the end of the day!

You must start by asking yourself why you find it hard to open up to people to begin with? What has happened in your past to build up to this? Many times people have been betrayed or cheated on which leads them to find it difficult to open up again in the future. It is important that you address these issues so that they don’t have an effect on later relationships. Also be mindful that not everyone is out to betray or cheat on you. It is wrong to judge people in later relationships just because you’ve been hurt before.

I know that opening up towards people is hard. I have been there and it is never easy, but I began with people whom I have considered close. As time passes it began to be easier and easier. I know you are your own person but if it makes you feel any better, a lot of us go through with what you are going through. You're not alone and we are here for you. I hope you have a great day and that you feel better through time. I used to close off on the people I love, but that didn't help me at all. Try not to do the same.

If someone trusts you, chances are they value you as a close friend, and would want you to trust them. So people that lay their soul bare for you and seek you out for help, and really appreciate you for that (well first think of how warm and happy that makes you feel like that you are their sounding board for the issues of life, and that may be exactly how they feel if you open up to them), they would definitely like to return the favor. Realize that you are no less than anyone else and probably a beautiful person and if you're best friends with someone they deserve to see the inner you just as much as you deserve to see the inner them

Opening up to people can be super hard at times, but it's not impossible. I used to be super guarded, but then I learned that people want to get to know me, and actually care about my feelings and experiences. Breaking that barrier between friends can be scary, but once its down, you feel closer and more connected with the people you know. I know that feeling of being worried you'll be judged or looked down upon, and it can be crippling sometimes, but the truth is that that most people are empathetic and kind. I learned to surround myself with people who I knew cared about me, and wanted me to be open, finding your circle is very important.

at first i have to let myself calm down.whatever will happen,let it be.if it worse ,let it be worst of me.i have to remove all the negative emotions lurking in my head,and let go of all emotions,all things that i have taken in my mind right now.i have to smile gently,be confident on what i should do and let all my heart pour out all my words but everything i should do with totally being guided by my inner voice.we should not feel shy and think what other people thinks of me,because it can make situations worse.i have to be confident on me.

Be true to yourself if you find it hard to open up it shows there's been something in your life that's made you more cautious and created the need to put up walls in order to protect yourself. It's important you listen to yourself because often your mind is trying to help even though it might come across critical. I would advice starting off with someone you trust and slowly start giving them a little more in depth into you and what you're like. You don't have to be an open book straightaway and that can be scary anyway but rather think of it like chapters that your explaining of your life and the more chapters someone knows about you the more your opening up.

Even considering opening up to people when it causes you fear is an incredibly courageous thing to be doing. Not bottling things up is often good advice but we need to be sure that we are selective about who we do open up to. How would you suggest opening up to a close friend who told you that they had this problem? Treating yourself as that good friend and taking your own advice is a great way to take care of yourself, or practice self-care and that is something that is especially I.oortant if you feel you might be letting yourself be vulnerable by opening up. I give you direct advice as we are all different and si are our situations, but think carefully about who you will open up to and how much you will be letting out.
