How can I get rid of public speaking phobia?

MonicaF asked:


I have a severe public speaking phobia. Knowledge of the subject does not works for me because I get really nervous even when I have to read something I know or when talking in front of just 5 people I don’t know well. Some of my symptoms are blushing, sweating, fast heart beating, and run out of air even if I’m speaking slowly, and sometimes I can not continue speaking. I was wandering if I can take Lorazepam, or some medication. I can not join Toastmasters either because I’m not from USA.

I have a real problem with public speaking. It’s probably been going on for about 5 or more years that I’m aware of. Since I could remember whenever I’m in a publick speakiing situation whether it be a classroom setting or a small social group symptoms range from voice cracking, excessive hand shaking (very obvious), nervousness, sometimes sweating. I guess I’m looking for a quick fix to my problem like medication or something, i’ve even heard hypnosis does a thing or to…any ideas?

I’m taking a speech class in the summer and I’m extremely nervous about it! I have a history of depressive anxiety. I already see a psychiatrist too. Is it possible to get Xanax or some other quick acting anxiety medication for the days I have to give a speech? What’s the medication called that they give people when they have a fear of flying? I know it’s an anxiety medication!
