I understand you perfectly cos I used to be like you. You have anxiety disorder it makes you lose confidence and concentration before presentation.
Anyway be sure to have good subject knowledge b4 the presentation. Read the art of public speaking by Dale caenegie. It will help you know how to act and keep focus. ON THE MAIN. There is a drug for ppl with anxiety disorder I've forgotten BT will get back to you. It's mostly used by ppl with high BP. What it does is that it calms your nerves by expanding tracts for easy blood flow. Ordinarily without it you maybe sweating or your heart could be raising the drug clears this for you. I use it always before my presentations even at work

Pls which drug and how can someone get it

Czartega:


True... Propanolol, a non selectitve beta adrenergic blocker helps to reduce heart rate as well as reducing tremors and relieving anxiety.

How can I get it. Thanks

maclatunji:

Say no to drug dependency and abuse.

I support you

My Brother

It's even worst to the extent of not being able to toast someone I have feelings for

Am just trying to get solution to this ASAP before it get too late

Hi Nairalanders greetings to you all. please can someone help me with solutions to this stage fright problem.

I Am in my late thirties married with children but this thing will not leave me alone. I have been battling with this all my life.

Just recently, I had a presentation to make but things were messed up because of this. I am a graduate but this is limiting my chances in life. What are the practical ways to overcome this problem? God bless you all.

Whenever you get to stage.don't look at faces.look up to d ceiling.faces can at times discourage u.

OgunLaakaye:
Alcohol


Outline your presentation and rehearse how you will want to be.

Start drinking 2 hours before presentation and think about how you were impressed with your presentation. (Insinuating)

When you drink to a point. You will stand up and walk towards that Hall anxious to dish out words and sentences.

. Taking alcohol for boldness is not advisable as it causes addictions .Moreover, liver diseases are not curable but preventable. Don't end up with liver challenges , alcoholism and so on because you want to be bold for presentations.

I usually have it b4, Buh after some few minutes I get to the stage I get myself back.

It just abt knowing and read as a many times as as possible of anything you want to present

NelsonNeo:
propanolol tablets 20mg an hour before your presentation.
It will keep you relaxed all through.
Happy new year

Please, if you want to deal with it just buy this medicine. Propanol is the general name but inderal is one of the brand name. It depends on the severity of your problem, so you can be guided by your health provider.
It works for me. So see a doctor too.

ZombieTERROR:


Start with friends.... Discuss politics in viewing centers.... Get your self out there..

It's a gradual process

Please have you been able to overcome it? If yes? How?

Yes! I've overcome it long before now. I was a member of Press Club way back in secondary school. That club has helped me gain confidence to speak before multitudes before me. Confidence was something i lacked, but press club gave it to me.
