presentation tmoro

[Bonjourno]

For four to five years, i had panic attacks....because of the above and anticipation - that killed me at times....well, wasn't till my parents advised me to go on propranolol that things have improved. I have been using it since xmas for these situations, and its worked, but it doesn't stop me from ****ting myself before the presentations. I have one tmoro, don't think i will sleep well tonight...you know that pressure beforehand...worrying words won't come out and all of that....i'll be ok, but i'll be shattered by the end of it...will relax after it tmoro and have a kip...can't wait for that moment to come...

I've never had to do that sort of thing - think you are well brave!

I bet no-one watching will have the faintest idea that you are so nervous and even if they do they will be so glad they don't have to do it, that they will be totally on your side.

Good luck - let us know how it goes.

Good luck!!

I used to run course so I know how hard it is to stand out there and have all the eyes on you.

Take some water to sip when you feel your mouth going dry and I hope it goes well for you.

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

Bonjourno,

Remember its your time and you know more about the subject than they do.

Also, they don't know exactly what you're going to say so if it comes out differently, it's no big deal at all ..

Water with rescue remedy in it helps to sip on ..

Shall be thinking of you tomorrow

I'm a scientist and used to have to talk in front of people/give presentations. I always found it hard and still get nervous. It's a natural feeling to have. I know alot of non anxious people who get nervous before presentations too, so good for you if you can do it with anxiety aswell, very courageous. Good luck, will be thinking of you.

It went ok...mind you i was sick before i set off....not sure what it was...anxiety in my body, or me trying to brush my tongue and gagging myelf the cause, a bit of both probably - needless to say, i felt like cráp for 20 mins after - when you're face goes horrible and tight when you're sick...and i washed my face to loosen the tension. Otherwise, the presentation went ok....thank the lord, will treat myself to a kip later this afternoon - feel downright exhausted.

[Bonjourno]

Thanks guys anyway...nice to know people are out there who understand how some find it so hard....i still feel oddly disappointed with myself at how it went, my standards are high and all that, but i really have to be content with myself, compared to three or four years ago at college, i was an utter mess....nerves, attacks...thought i'd share this one moment i had 3 years ago at college, upper sixth....at the time i did not know propranolol existed, the class was a 2hr one....groups had to prepare to do the presentation in the latter hour...i was a wreck that one hour with anticipation, so for the only time i've ever done this - desperate measures that they were, legged it back home during the break, to drink some vodka to relax me....well it was vodka, it was lager, so then i had to clean my teeth and wash my mouth in record time - thus to get back to class in 15 mins - my house was a 5 minute run from college so i was like that bloke from the film...forever running. Got back to class, and talking bits had been allocated to other members of my group....i was so scared i had to do this desperate thing - i've thankfully moved on now, but that was a low time for me - compare today to back then i've done well.... sorry if i've really spooked you out with what i've just said..

[Meg]

Well done

So the facts are that you've improved enormously in the last few years..
Yes I agree with you you need to be content, even pleased with your performance and you have done very well..

When the next one ?
