Is stage fright holding me back?

If any of the following applied to you recently when you had to perform or give a speech, it may be that stage fright is holding you back. Read more below about how I can help you.

I worried about what people would think of me

I had trouble sleeping the night before
I perspired, felt tense and my breathing was faster just before
My heart was beating very fast as I started to perform/ speak
My thoughts became confused and jumbled
My hands trembled and I felt very tense and rigid
I was in constant fear I'd forget what to do or say
I worried that someone would ask me something that I didn’t know
After making a mistake I found it very hard to concentrate
I experienced a feeling of helplessness
I was so nervous I forgot facts I knew really well
I had automatic negative thoughts (unhelpful thoughts)
I worried I might panic and make a fool of myself
I had a feeling of shakiness (e.g. legs going to give way)
I felt like running away
I felt close to panic
I felt so relieved when it was over

What is Stage Fright and Glossophobia?

"Stage fright or performance anxiety is the anxiety, fear, or persistent phobia which may be aroused in an individual by the requirement to perform in front of an audience, whether actually or potentially (for example, when performing before a camera).

In the context of public speaking, this may precede or accompany participation in any activity involving public self-presentation" (Wikipedia). As such, I also deal with Glossophobia which is the fear of public speaking or simply just speaking in general.

Stage fright can apply to many situations, here are some examples:

Singing/ other musical performance
After dinner/ celebratory speeches
Acting/ Comedy performance
Sports/ other competitions
Driving/ motorbike tests
Wedding speeches etc
Assessment Centres
Presentations
Interviews
Meetings
Eulogies
Exams
Dating

'Many well-known public performers have had stage fright and were able to overcome their problem, including Al Jolson, Brian Wilson, Virginia O'Brien, Michael Gambon, Lorde, Jason Alexander, Mose Allison, Maya Angelou, David Brenner, Peter Coyote, Olympia Dukakis, Richard Lewis, Barbara Streisand, Adele, David Warner, Niall Horan, Frankie Howerd, Mariah Carey and Amanda Seyfried.

In some cases, famous stars have struggled to cope with their anxiety. Hugh Grant said on starring in the movie Music and Lyrics that he "did the whole film full of lorazepam"' (Wikipedia).
