The reason why it scares you is because you're scared of yourself, you are afraid of disappointements, disappointing them, disappoiting yourself, or being disappointed by them. The only way to get rid of this fear is to learn to know more about yourself, know your strentghs, yor weaknesses, and what you have to offer to the world, and I'm sure you have a lot to give, find it and you'll be proud to talk to others. :)

Start with little things and tell a few people. Then tell them bigger things. Also remember that people like to be trusted with things. I know it's weird but when someone tells me something secretive, it makes me feel really special.

You can talk to somebody you trust, such as a friend, a teacher, a parent or guardian. Someone who you feel very comfortable with.

People absolutely terrify me. Always have. There was a period of time where I'd spend hours every day curled up in a corner of my closet, because I knew nobody else would be in there. It's all about consistent baby steps, and feeling the fear but doing it anyway. It's ok to be afraid. But if you keep doing what you've always done, you'll keep getting what you've always got.

Opening up can be really scary, i think it really courageous of you to want to open up even though it scares you.

Try with the minor things first. You favourite movie, food, shop, hobbies, etc
The deserving person will help you feel much more at ease with time. You can do things you are shy of now like sing or dance infront of these people. Gradually you can open you feelings to them. If you have recognised them correctly, they'll be happy to see the beautiful person you are from inside.

You could try talking to people on the internet, that way you could be almost completely anonymous and still open up to people! If you would like to talk to me you could message me and talk about anything you want ^-^

[This is a difficult question for me.] What I had always been doing is to add up a bit of humor whenever I want to open up to somebody. It helps me to feel a bit relaxed and less awkward and lighter.

Sometimes we have a goal in mind, but focus only on the end game. It's okay to take one thing a step at a time. So you can start with trusting one person and just sharing one thing with them. Whether it be something serious or light-hearted, share it. That will help you get used to the idea of being able to share something with someone.
