Hello, I fear I have glossophbia/ Social anxiety. I rly wanna tell someone about it Im scared they wont believe me or wont take me seriously. I really wish it could be as easy as ppl talk about it. My sister does suspect me having social anxiety since I had a panic attack at a wedding in front of her. But i told her to not tell anyone since I was just scared my family will find me dramatic or any of that. Whenever my mom invites me to go to a party with her I accept, but once I arrive I tremble in fear with my hands shaking thinking everyone is judging me. But honestly whenever I see my closest friend there I always feel much more comfortable.
(What I just noticed while I was typing this is that, Im always panicking when I go to a party without anyone I know. But whenever im I see my friend there I feel so much safer)

I'm scared of people talking fast. It's really scary and triggers my mind. It reminds me of something in my past life or in my dream. I'm not sure how to explain it but thats all I can say. Everytime I hear someone talking fast it reminds me when I was 6-8 years old. I don't know what causes this and I'm not sure what its called! So I assume that I have glossophobia. Its really scary and not something to joke about to. It all started around January - May, I started to see that I'm scared of someone doing something really fast. I never told anyone about this but my mother. So whenever something triggers my phobia, I just act like I don't feel anything or scared.

I have a fear of asking a question or answering the teachers question out loud in front of the whole class (even when I'm not looking at the other students. This is why I never ask the teacher questions when the teacher is speaking or if the teacher asks Any questions when the whole class is listening. The only time I ask teacher questions is when everyone is doing their own work and that the teacher is sitting at his/her desk by himself and I walk up to him with the question I want to ask and ask him there. I need to find a way to overcome this

That's exactly what I feel. I'm an extrovert and I love public, but when it comes to speeking and stand infront of everyone I start to shake and sometimes even cry. And it's not like I can't speak with my friends or someone, but I just can't be the one that is soposet to stand or do or say something infront of everyone, I'm just too scared to do something wrong Infront of everyone expecting me to do it right. I don't know how to explain in properly but I hope you understand.

Can also people with no social problems be related to this phobia? I mean somebody who has no problem to talk in a group, has a healthy self-confidence and has no problem to be in a big group, but if he's about to have a prepared speech, confidence goes away and stress and body shakings start. Maybe it's just a stress from working too hard but I feel like I always prepare a really good speech I know a lot and then I can talk about half of that bcs of anxiety: (

oh boy, this brings me back to the lovely debate i had with my english teacher about the absolute ableism behind handing me a 0% on a speech because i just couldn't speak in front of the class. like 25 people give or take a few. i could've had the best speech but just because i couldn't do the public speech i got a fail. that ruined my motivation for school a lot.

When I go up to the stage for a presentation or speech, my whole body goes cold, I get really sweaty, and It gets hard to make eye contact, my heart beats fasts and even my body starts trembling. Because of this, I end up looking like a stiff robot. My friends say it gets easy after a minute or two but it doesn't. Ya'll feel me?

guess it's an actual phobia
i used to just cry in front of everyone when it comes to presentation in the class when i was still at school and college
and now i'm an adult that is working but i still have this problem, i would rather be mute and speaking just because of this fear.

If you're feeling depressed -
Talk with me. I'LL BE A FRIEND.
How can strangers be friends?
-See my name. Best if luck. I'll be a good listener.
What's your purpose?
-My purpose is I wanna feel a depressed person is smiling. What can be greater than this?

I actually had my only depression Ive ever had for a month due to glossophobia. It was so bad I actually was coming to the conclusion that Id rather kill myself than do any speech. Safe to say I never spoke in front of anyone then and never will in the future.

I think I might have Glossophobia but I'm not sure.
When I'm about to read something out loud I just freeze, like my voice just shuts down and then I don't want to read anymore. And my stomach starts to feel weird and I just panic.

In the worst case I literally shake my leg when speaking in front of people. It's weird because when I am speaking I I try to give my 110%. Though the idea of doing and being up there give me extreme anxiety.

I just hate it when people in my class are deadpanned like stoned-face, especially when their voices gets immensely loud and I was trying to present the first slide for the presentation with my group

Before public speaking I always think it is easy to just talk to many people, I always prepare myself but I still always stutter and worst, my mind goes blank.
