how to not be socially awkward with people

i had a hard life, had my confidence undermined quite a bit and struggle with my self confidence now...as well as a personality disorder i try to deal with, i have social anxiety as well and when in public when talking to people or like today the woman cashier at the supermarket starts talking to me, i think i present as nervous, unsure of myself and socially awkward.

i've been like that all my adult life, because of bad experiences i had with people....is there a way i can not present as so socially awkward and unusure of myself?

@Nanori i don't follow others, i'm not a sheep, i have a mind of my own and want to figure it out mainly by myself with a little advice from others but not ''stick to someone''.

@darkmere1983 so basically you never learned anything at school

@Nanori at school i had 1 or 2 friends, but never followed the crowd, as i said i'm not a sheep.
