How can I beat the Fear of Public Speaking?
SavedByGrace asked:
I had to give a small two line speech this past weekend to roughly 40 people. My insides started to grow hot as I waited my turn. My heartbeat was going a mile a minute and I started to take deep breaths.

I was about to faint once again but this time I tried to talk myself out of it. My face started to twitch and I thought I would go down to the floor. It was my turn finally and I blurted out what I needed to say as I tried to mask the ridiculous facial expression that the nerves in my face were causing.
I dry heaved three times before I realized that I was going to throw up. I exited through the back door and throw up in an available trash can. TWICE
I need to shake this fear that I have had since high school…any suggestions? The “visualize” a naked person is not going to cut it.
