Practice talking to yourself in the mirror. I know it sounds crazy, but once you're able to totally feel comfortable looking yourself in the eyes in the mirror, talking to everyonelse will be a breeze. In fact, you'll start to make them feel a little unsure.

look at the 'third eye' on the forehead - if you are not too close, people cannot tell you are not looking them in the eyes....

I had the same problem, dude. You just gotta work on it with friends whom you're most comfortable with.

take tyrosine and realize ppl are same .. be patient tyrosine is a natural amino acid lacking in brains they use it fro your probs as well as adht add etc .. eye contact well you can tell when ppl are serious and take u serious if u look away no one will so.. make a game out of it look into their eyes like u have the control and power of the conversation you will be surprised how they listen to you and converse back when u look into the eyes.. and think to yourself I got this under control and their listening to me so relax don't hurry ur speech or dialog as u got their attention .. anxiety .. will be less in time with practice.. and coaching from family member recite something to them or take a public speaking class..you could get a web cam and make a video of your self reciting a poem or speaking and play it back to see how u look and sound.. then practice on someone then venture out to the people.. in general..
