Fear of speaking


Question Posted Tuesday January 13 2009, 8:02 pm

14/f

So I have this weird problem where when I have to read something in class, I get really nervous. My voice shakes, and I have to swallow a lot, other wise my voice gets caught on saliva, and I even tremble a little. I know this is nothing really serious, but it bothers me, and I wish I didn't get so nervous, but I can't seem to stop it. This only started recently, maybe a month ago. Can someone help me?

i used to be really nervous when speaking too. then one day i realized that most kids arent listening to a word you say. and the few who are dont care how you sound or they will forget about you making a mistake by the next day. i think that fear of public speaking is fear of embarrasment, so just be confident and, unless it is on live tv, is anyone going to really remember it at all?

at times, I get really nervous to, even if it's reading a line from my english book to the class. I've learned that things like this are in my head, or in my imagination. If you're confident in yourself, you shouldn't be afraid to speak in front of others. don't be afraid. there really is nothing to be nervous about. take a deep breath and relax, and know that everyone else goes through what you do, too.

Just before you go up take a deep breath and just pretend you talking infront of you mom or dad because you wont feel nervous around them so you will be fine or if you have any siblings you can use them as an audience as well if that doesnt work then just think of your happy place and just consentrate and you will be fine good luck :D
