Is this normal or am i just WAYYY too shy ?!

I would say i am an introvert, dare i say shy. I am very quiet, most of my classmates have never heard me speak. And i do everything in my power to not socialize with anyone, including my family. I am sometimes allowed to stay at home for the day if i do all of my class work on my laptop. And i only go to the stores at night, for whatever i might need.
Is it normal to be this socially distant ? Or should i seek some kind of professional help ?

Your reply when asked why you are shy - "i think trauma and fear of rejection and fear of embarrassment"

It appears there might be something in your past that contributes to your shyness so it would be worth speaking professional help to work through these past events.
