I'm shy. How do I get over being nervous when public speaking?!
Question: I'm shy!. How do I get over being nervous when public speaking!?
I don't have a problem talking or meeting people, but I'm taking this class in college that requires a lot of presentations!. The instructor even calls on people randomly, my heart races throughout the whole class, and I even get embarrassed when the person beside me is called on to speak!. When I speak, I turn red, and get super nervous!. How do I get over this!? It's very hindering!. I don't want to even go to class anymore!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Repetition, brute force repetition!. You just have to get used to it, and there's only one way to do that, which is why you're taking the class!.
Don't stop; you'll get there sooner than you think!.

I suffer from the exact same thing!. Which is anxiety/panic disorder!. I am also in college and i have many presentations to do at the end of the semester as well (so dreading them)!. I also get called on in class and i experience something close to a panic attack!.
I have been coping with this for some time now - and it got to the point where I didnt show up for class!. When my problem started to effected my grades i knew thats when i needed to do something about my problem!.
Right now I am on week three of Zoloft and Therapy stress managment!. I dont want to tell you to take Zoloft - i just really needed it to "take the edge off things" so i could go to class!. The therapy is whats going to help in the long run!.
maybe some of this can help you!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

the only way to get over this, is by doing it a lot!. i know some people join the toastmasters group in order to help overcome the fear of public speaking!. there, you just keep doing the speeches!. practise makes perfect- so if you do it enough, eventually you will be calmer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

practice with your friends or focus on something and kind of glance at it during your presentation so you dont spend the entire presentation looking at the crowd in front of you but the only thing that is really gonna help is u doing it over and over again and getting more comfortable with it Www@Answer-Health@Com
