Performance Anxiety Symptoms
Performance Anxiety?

Hi all out there

I have a big problem. During the first 2 minutes of having to do the talking in any of my office meetings, presentations or especially round tables, my voice shakes, heart pounds and i experience extreme anxiety symptoms. Ialmost feel ashamed of being noticed.

But after 2 mins iam normall. But those 2 mins are normally enough to ruin my esteem.

I have tried every possible relaxation technique on the web and off.

Can someone help ? Please… ?
Thanks all.

I started using Beta blockers recently ONLY before the actual thing. Iam taking Ciplar 10Mg 2 tablets 2 hours before the meetings ONLY.

Works wonders.

But none of the natural methods seem to work. I feel like iam cheating the system.

So i thought i would post.

None of the other natural techniques work :-(

If you are interested in medication treatment, Beta Blockers can be very effective. Taken in small doses shortly before one anticipates having to perform or do a public presentation, they can do an AWESOME job in helping to control the autonomic symptoms of social/performance anxiety (rapid heart rate, sweating, heavy breathing/hyperventilating, feeling flushed). If somebody has tried behavioral strategies for this w/out success, this may be the next step for you. And, in such cases when they have worked for people, sometimes just having them on hand, knowing that they can be used can make all the difference in the world.

Talk to your doctor about this. I have prescribed them before for patients with social/performance anxiety, with very good results! They are available only by prescription, and in most cases are very safe to take, especially in such low dosages, though people should not be taking Beta Blockers if they have certain health conditions.

Email me if you have any questions.

Good luck!
