I am a shy reserved person, and whenever people feel the need to point this out I feel slightly offended and awkward. What is the best way to react?

My therapist pointed out that maybe people are just making an observation, but what bugs me is that I wouldn't feel the need to point out, for example, someone's physical features, so why is it OK for them to point out an aspect of my personality, usually in a negative way?

Every time someone brings it up I feel bad and end up beating myself up for being shy.

My usual way of reacting is saying yes, I know I am; or yes, it's something I'm working on.
