I had the same problem when I was younger =/
It's a hard one to get over but it is possible, without medication as well.
The hardest part of doing it without the meds is "Just going for it". If you have any current friends or anyone you can talk to, you need to tell them what you have told us here. Let them get to know whats up, talk to them about why it may be happening. Friends can help you through anything.
If you don't currently have any friends then it's a little harder =/ If you go to school, try finding someone in one of your classes who has the same interests, Since you don't feel comfortable talking to people, just look around and some of the things they may be doing, if you find someone with a common ground (Like a video game you may play, or a book you might like / author) approach them and start talking about the subject. This puts you in more command of the conversation as you know what your talking about, and your talking about a subject, not the person =).
That's how I got over it when I was younger, I still kind of have it to this day were I'm shy to talk to new people, but it does get better. Trust me <3
