Never thought I'd need this type of drug but about 2 weeks ago my voice started to tremble in the middle of a conversation, either on the phone or face to face. It makes me feel horrible. Even when I talk to my brother it can sometimes be a struggle to speak more than 2 sentences. Even worse, I have to give a presentation to my class next Thursday (22 yr old). Ugh!
I keep telling myself my nervousness can be overcome but I just feel like my chest is closing in and my heart rate rise when I know I have to say or even read something that's long in front of another person.
I was reading paxil.com and I think I might have Social Anxiety Disorder. Could this hopefully be something that will pass soon or should I seek medical attention? Would something like Paxil help? I'd love to speak in front a group of people with no fear.
Any help would or advice would be appreciated.
