its pretty much all … its pretty much all in your head, i know where youre coming from though. but tell me something, when another student raises his hand and asks a quiestion or just speaks out, do you think he or she is stupid for doing so? probably not huh? the best advice i got was that its pretty much all in MY head.
i can really relate … i can really relate! i hate being shy because you miss out on alot of stuff! like for example im still in highschool right, and if i dont understand something in class i dont ask the teacher to explain it because 1. im scared the other students might think um dumb (lolz) 2. i get to nervous speaking ANYWHERE in public! it’s gotten so bad that im starting to get a little shy around my BEST FRIENDS….*sigh* i really need help any advise?

This guy is me … This guy is me without a doubt! i’m confident 1 on 1 but throw me in front of 3+ people and i get swollowed up by quick sand. I think I read people individually and adjust accordibgly but mass people i’m completely lost i’m not sure yet and believe me, alcohol does not work! i choked completely! Any cures yet…
I have still not … I have still not overcome it…For me, my shyness is because of bullys. Lack of selfesteem. ure feeling judged in every word and acts u make. “Dont do this or say this wrong”, guess u know what i mean..
cognitive … cognitive behavioural therapy is the way yes.
You have to put ureself in situations that u normally avoid. Like you say Vektruscen, u do one thing that scares u, and then u do it again,again and again..And u notice that nothing bad is happening. That is one step closer to overcome the shynes though..have to see a CBT.
I need help because … I need help because it isnt just public speaking for me. Everything is so hard to do. I am considered awkward and i can hardly talk to anyone. I am essentially friendless.
i laffed my off … i laffed my off at the guy when he 1st gave his speech. why? becuase he reminded me of myself in high school, when i had to give oral reports in class and the spelling bees.
i would stutter and freeze and say ummm alot. especially if there was some hot chicks in the room, or somebody started laffing.
If you subject … If you subject yourself to public speaking frequently you’ll eventually get over the fear and become comfortable in that situation. That’s the only way. The only thing is, you’re going to have to fail a few more times before eventually getting over it, which takes a lot of courage (which I don’t yet have).
I don’t want to … I don’t want to brag but I do dress better than 99% of males,I drive a mercedes, A&B student,good looking,with a lot of friends; basically someone classified as cool and a jock.I hear it from people all the time.The sad thing is, sometimes instead of havin these good things I wish I was confident and extroverted.After my disaster yesterday I told myself I’m going to beat this.Here I am talking about it which I thought I never would and searching into it. Good luck to you and everyone else.
At least you … At least you finished.I had a 5 minute panel presentation in my class yesterday and I was exactly like this guy in the video.I just started shaking, ran out of words and a minute into it, I said i can’t do this, and made up a ridiculous excuse saying I didn’t care about the subject. I’ve been so down on myself today thinking about it, which is eating me apart. The ironic thing is, people think highly of me as someone cool and extroverted and due to my looks and how i dress and shit.
I feel for you man, … I feel for you man, it sucks for people like us who have trouble speaking in public. It’s not easy, only super confident d-bags usually are succesful at it.
i can COMPLETELY … i can COMPLETELY relate to this. well at least he doesn’t turn bright red and tremble like i do when i have to give a presentation. i have to give a 5 minute speech in december for one of my courses and i’m already completely anxious about it. i don’t know how to get past this at all. it’s horrible.
When I was in my … When I was in my second year of community college I had to give an oral presentation in a psychology class. I didn’t know anyone in the class and they all seemed much older than me, and when I started my presentation I got so horribly nervous that I was unable to speak for a good 30 seconds, then my whole body shook while I struggled through finishing. It was so embarrassing, it’s the one memory I wish I could erase from my mind forever
