it's not that i'm a shy person, but I often get stage fright. sometimes when I have to perform a play or skit, or when I have to go in front of my whole class and all attention is on me, my body starts to get really hot and like my face, chest, and arms will turn red. I just wanted to kno if other people are experiencing that too.. and how can I prevent this from happening??

Try thinking of something relaxing or funny while you doing it (I know it sound corny...but try to imagine everyone it their underwear...works for me!!!)...maby you'll feel better after that.

One thing you can try to do is when you look at people, just scan them, don't look into their eyes really and don't stare at one person. It comes with practice. Don't worry! HOpE i heLpEd!! Good luck! :D

Julie174 answered Thursday May 19 2005, 8:48 pm: I'm shy and stage fright. But, maybe you should say your speech in front of family members or friends who wont make you nervous and do it over and over again and then try it at school. then with plays, you could ask the peoples to turn on some fans or something. Pretend nobody is there. and if that doesnt work, im sorry. I'd be happy to answer any other questions you may have. thanks
