Most people would rather be dead in the casket than giving an eulogy at the funeral. Public speaking is already difficult but with if you suffer from anxiety attacks it can be a major source of worry weeks before you even are due to speak.
Public speaking could be anything from getting in front of a podium and speaking to a large crowd or it could be giving a presentation at work. There is an increase in the number of students at school who are suffering from just speaking in class.
The fear focuses around having the anxiety attack during the speech. What are people going to think if i go crazy up here? Where is the nearest exit? What happens if I fall over? Will any one help me or just point and laugh?
Public speaking the the number one fear. You are not the only one. Fear and anxious thoughts during a speech can actually be a good thing and in order to have a positive affect we need to build back your confidence.
First you need to understand that anxious feelings before a speech is completely normal. You body is preparing it self and you are not going to fall over and die. You are completely safe. Understand that if you let them these feelings will pass.
What keeps the panic attacks coming time and time again is the fear of the fear that the next panic attack will knock you over and that you barley made it through the last anxiety attack.
Anxiety attacks are scary and the fear has shattered your confidence. It's this lack of confidence that causes you to fear the onset of the next panic attack and that allows the anxiety to come back into your life.
Self doubt can be caused by negative thoughts. Like not believing that you can speak in front of a large group or what if I say something wrong. The minute you doubt yourself is the same moment that the normal anxious feelings turn into a full blown panic attack.
Now with this new outlook on speaking in public you will find that it is completely normal to have anxious feelings before and during a speech. You will be able to allow those feelings to come and pass. Now that you have removed the negative thoughts you will notice that the anxious feelings have actually enhanced your speech making you feel more alive and energetic.
Lets change your thought process. Instead of thinking here comes another attack. Think, there you are I have been waiting for you. I am no longer scared of the feelings you bring because I know that I am secure.
Don't bottle the intense feelings of fear in your stomach. Instead recognize the fear and feelings, embrace the feelings of panic and let them move through your body and out the other side. You will begin to feel the anxiety leave your body and your speech will be a complete success and full of life.
