A lil story here!
These days my life is like some kind of clingy drama lol.
Recently the popular kid group in my class was trying to like bully me - I don't know if this is ACTUALLY bullying. But they kind a tried to threaten me and my friend, trying spread rumours, talking loudly about us in the class and asking around about me, suddenly saying our names out loud and start laughing etc.
And yesterday I was keeping my head on the table until the teacher come to the class and my friend was writing something. suddenly they called my friend to there desks. I wanted to act like I don't care so I was just pretending to sleep. And my friend came back with a chit in her hand asking if I know this person, it was my ex boyfriend's name. Actually my friend didn't knew about him at all but I had to tell her everything yesterday. Then the teacher came, the chit was all crumbled up in my hand. If I was literally so afraid to the point I was shaking. I have this fear of people who I'm not close with. I can't even walk into a room full of people alone. I was really afraid that they would spread weird rumours about me, I'll get caught to teachers and my parents. I have maintained this really innocent timid girl personality for past years. So I was actually really feared to come out to people presenting my real self.
Later in the day after talking with one of my friends who is actually close to that popular kids group, I found out that it wasn't actually what I thought was going on all along.
Now this popular kid group's leader like one has the same name as mine. I'll call her A. And my friend who's close to her is actually my ex girlfriend ill call her B. And for my ex boyfriend, he'll be C.
So I liked C before and C liked me too back then. And now C likes the girl with same name as me A. And A likes C back. And B my ex girlfriend of course liked me and I liked B. And B's twin brother likes A. And this to get worse I had a crush on A. This is all tangled up and actually pretty ridiculous and hilarious.
Now I guess that the popular kid group is tying to like threaten me because of my past relationship.
The problem is I have social anxiety I can't talk to people directly at all. So I can't defense my self. I don't even have the courage to say that I have nothing to do with him anymore. If I go infront of them I will start shaking up and may even end up crying. I clearly don't won't weird rumours to spread but on the other hand I can't speak up for my self

i tried to perform in front of people for the first time in awhile, (i had have some experience with playing piano on stage since i was a child but i stopped performing on stage for years bc it was overwhelming for me) i tried to be brave and perform at school in front of a lot of people i know. i learnt the piece until i mastered it, no mistakes and i played really well from the beginning till the end. i even rehearsed on stage but at that time there was nobody paying attention to me so i played really well too. while waiting for my turn i kept on repeating listening to the piece non stop bc i really dont want to mess up. then there comes my turn. i was trembling, all eyes on me. i played the intro well but in the middle of playing i just cant remember what chord is next, my whole body was shaking. i repeated the piece again and i just cant remember that part at all. so i stopped playing and got off stage, cried in silence and left.

The main thing that happens to me before I present in class is crying, shaking/twitching, and stomach/breathing issues. I get anxious in other scenarios, but since this video is on performance anxiety I feel like I should just speak on that. I get told there's nothing to worry about, and no one except the teacher is actually paying attention to what I'm saying, but because of my anxiety, I can't help but disagree and feel like everyone is judging me. I love my family, but they tell me to just get over it, and I don't think they realize it's not that easy. I don't think they understand that I'm not well mentally, and think it's just the nerves. It makes me a bit upset, but I think that interacting with others more and presenting more often has made it slightly better.

So today I had a karate tourdament i blanked out started over and was balling my eyes out when doing the form it was so bad they gave us a break so i could hug my mom and have a few of the master belts calm me down with breathing and with their similar story's. I am still on and off crying about it 10 hours later. When performing under my breath I was whispering oh my god oh my god. And at the end i bowed and said I'm sorry. I got off and said how did i just do that. Everybody I was competing against felt my pain. Overall I got two silver medals. Anxiety FRICKING sucks can I say Panic Attack. anybody got any advise for me

I performed solo in front of my entire school once when i was 11, and thats where i got stage fright.
Atleast i didn't mess up and for a week became the most popular guy in school, but i hated that since i was and still is VERY introverted.
For anyone wondering what i did, i played Turtkish march on the piano. I am very skilled at piano, but a 11 year old playing that song infront of the entire school shocked everyone over my skills and i thought that was a living nightmare to have everyone starring and talking to me.

The thing is. I'm in a music school. everyone tells me my voice is amazing. and there's still. that thought that it says that They're just lying to make you feel better or Don't go on stage. don't make a fool of yourself.
I'm scared to go on stage. ever since quarantine started. I've been more and more afraid of stages. and the thought of getting on a stage already makes me nauseous. I hope I overcome it.

When I was younger and some times now I use to stutter when I talk in front of people. For me the reason i stutter was because I was unsure of my self and would always try to speed talk so I can sit back and it would be a hot mess. With the tongue ties and stutter. Now when I talk in front of people I try and slow down my talking speed and assure my I know more than I think.

I shake uncontrollably which is never good since I play the violin. During auditions, my hands will become sweaty, Ill start panicking and apologising profusely to the auditioner for taking so long and shake so much I feel like my violin is going to fall out of my hands and the bow is going to bounce to the next city.

I sing, play percussion instruments and guitar, but my anxiety is getting out of hand. I can't eat normally the day of the show because I would start vomiting, I left my partner singing alone because of nausea many times, sometimes I can't even talk or I feel the vomit comming out. I feel defeated after the show

Singing has always been a huge passion and a form of therapy for me. I want to perform and sing for people but having anxiety and being super sensitive. I end up talking myself out of it and people never know what my talents are. Ugh.

You pointed out great knowledge as far as the root causes of performance anxiety. As well as the anatomy that comes with it! Makes others realize that even famous people and our president may also deal with the same anxiety.

Sometimes teachers will call on me randomly when my hand isnt raised and when they do my heart rate just skyrockets and I start to sweat. It sounds weird but its true. Even when I just have to say two words.

I remember once I was so nervous to present that I repeated what I was going to say more than 20 times and after, I presented I just wanted to go to the bathroom and cry and go home. I love anxiety.
