Get to know me

Hi, I’m Pranto. I’m from Bangladesh.
I’ve always been a quiet person.
In 2020, I got hit with chronic fatigue.
It made me weak, both physically and socially.
I started avoiding people. I lost touch with friends.
I spent more time in my head than in the world.
But I didn’t want to stay stuck.
So I started studying myself.
Why was I so shy?
Why did talking feel so hard?
I made small changes.
I joined a theatre group.
I performed on stage for the first time.
I entered a speech competition—and won.
And little by little, I became more open.
If you’re shy or socially anxious, you’re not alone.
This blog is for you.
I share stories, lessons, and simple ideas to help you speak up, make friends, and stop hiding.
You don’t need to become someone else.
You just need a way forward.
Are you ready to take the first step?
Let’s break the silence—together.
