Not just presentations, It’s anxiety before talking or interacting with people
I feel the same
Ikr😔
So relating I feel that too
Yes and during and after😢
Yeah, I can't really interact with any strangers anymore. Just the people I already know.
I'll be stressing for a week about how I said "here" in attendence..
same
Same because everyone copies how I say it because I say it with a fear voice idk why and I try my best to speak louder I just can’t.
I try more than 10 times how to say before my number come or when they tell to introduce yourself i wish that lecture to over before my turn
Same
Me too
Im glad there’s other people who feel like me! Honestly sometimes the internet makes me feel better than real life.
Same here 🫂💯
TOTALLY TRUE and this why I spent 7 years in the internet
More like EVERY TIME
"Internet makes me feel better than real life" truest words I've ever read
Hahaha low life kids
It feels like you're an alien and you're trying to learn about people, but it's hard.
Yes I never felt like a human
Yes I felt like I am invisible person in my class that noone cares about
Yes i felt like i was envisible and ppl never ever cared about me and they just judge me especially me having only one best friend but i cant vent to and that best friend also haves anxiety depression and idk how to vent to her and shes also seperated from me and btw shes the only one who understood and cared for me in my entire life and it repeats all over again until school ends and the fact that i cant get help or vent to my parents bc they wont even understand❤
Btw guys if u have the money for therapy or your lucky to vent to ppl that u trust deeply i suggest u to vent to them or seek help if u do have the money for it take care of yourselfs yall❤
@@AsifShaikh-i9qbecause we don’t care about you ???

The worst part is when you walk in your classroom and everybody just be looking at you judging you

The “obsessing over something you said” and “feeling sick before presentations” are so accurate for me

@@user-yv7ei1gj6f it's so annoying when they do that!!! Everyone can be a little shy, but social anxiety is very different
@@matheus10b mhm
Your not alone, we understand you❤ we are all together dealing with this
The worst part about having social anxiety is that the people around you simply won’t understand. They will tell you to just “not care”. Gee thanks that really helps! I wish more more could understand the way social anxiety can make you a passenger in your own skin. It’s hard to be around people, even people o know and love. I can’t talk to strangers at all, I can’t even look them in the eyes. I try so hard to act strong but honestly I don’t know how much longer I can keep going….this is paralyzing. I want to live my life the way I want to. Not the way I think everybody else thinks I should. I don’t know how to not feel this way. I wish my family would understand me.
I've never seen a comment so relatable. Let's try our best to overcome this.
@@Inki_pinki_ponky_ you were forced to grow to fast my friend. More than not our need to please others comes from our parents. In my case, my parents would always fight and my mother would scream and cry for hours, I use to run to my room and shove my head between pillows just to not hear it. I tried to comfort them both but nothing I ever did was good enough, somebody was always upset. I tried so hard to please them but it was never enough. Overtime as children we falsely learn that others needs and wants are more important than our own. We have a need to please others, we need them to like us. Our happiness depends on their happiness. If they aren’t happy or pleased, we will do anything In our power to try to please them, even if it means we suffer as a result. Stay strong, this world can be hell for people like us and only few will truly understand but I promise you if you just hold on a little longer eventually you will learn to live your life the way you want to. Focus on the present moment and don’t let your mind be controlled by thoughts. Learn to control your thoughts. Learn that this is your life and no matter what you do, somebody will be disappointed in you in some way. You cannot please everybody!! So stop trying!! Please yourself. It’s easier said than done but you can do it!
I might be a stranger but I love you and I believe in you ❤️
I think I have it..... I been taking tests online and looking up symptoms and readings these comments are convincing me more the worst part is everyone just thinks I'm just shy but it's not just being shy... I want to talk to people but It's like I just can't that's one of the reasons why I hate myself.... I wish I wasn't like this
I have a speech impediment so that doesn't help so I actually do get laughed at when I do presentations also everyone sees me as the weirdo and stuff and I'm comfortable and very talkative and all around my parents and brother but I'm shy around almost everyone else even my other family and my classmates who I've known for awhile now honestly I don't know anymore I hate that I'm like this and I have no one who will understand I agree on what you said about no one understands and not knowing how to not feel this way it feels nice to know there is some people who understand what it's like but still...
And doing presentations are torture too me
@@Itz_Hannah46 people think they understand but they don’t know what it’s like. They can’t understand that some people have a very serious fear of social interactions. They will say “everybody gets nervous sometimes” but social anxiety is more than just being nervous. It’s a deep rooted fear that everybody hates you and you’re not good enough and everywhere you go you feel like people are laughing at you or judging you. It makes me so upset when people say they understand but I can tell they don’t by how they act. I get extremely anxious no matter where I go and no matter what I’m doing, I feel like everybody is laughing at me. It’s hell on earth. It’s hard to maintain a job, go to school, go to the grocery store etc. but it’s because we hate ourselves so we think everybody else does. The truth is, most people are too concerned with themselves to even think about me or you in the first place but it’s hard to convince our brains of that

@MoldovianballUmm dont exaggerate, no one truly cares enough to think stuff like that about people unless they themselves are a loser
You have it easy. I have a stutter so every day at school is hell for me. Doing presentations, reading out loud in class, and answering simple questions is a huge obstacle that I need to overcome EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

@@yoshi20105buddy YOU have it easy…
sometimes I'm feeling confident during class, I say things that normally I wouldn't say and that really aren't wrong but as soon as I get home I start to think about everything and regret it, feel bad and start to panic just thinking that "tomorrow I have to go to school again".
I don't know why every comment is relateble 😭🥺
especially bad since i dont normally talk my classmates say "wow she talked" and stuff like that while im speaking its embarrassing
This is so relatable, I myself is such a huge overthinker that I hate my every life choice, every word that I utter, and that's really limiting me from doing things that I really want to. I need to get over it. Any book recommendations I would really appreciate it.
Same here bro. All my class mates and teachers are really good. When they're going to talk with me or ask me about something I just feel something weird and I also have the problem that you mentioned here, always thinking about everything I said and regretting them. How about keeping eye contacts with the other people. That's the worst thing I have ever experienced anyway I'm so glad that you guys are here cause it makes me feel like I'm not the only one with anxiety.
I can't even raise my hand in class
Once when I had a presentation, I literally was shaking before I had to start. I felt like I was going to cry. And then when I went, I kept stumbling over my words and my legs felt like jello. I remember my teacher commenting on something I said and I was so embarrassed that I felt like I was going to cry in front of everybody. I hate presentations, they are torture. Period.
Fr... Whenever I hear that we have to do one, I feel sick

social anxiety sucks like it’s a unwanted suffering no one asked or needed.

I can relate. It's like automatic, not something you can control manually. I feel so anxious about the way I walk in front of public, where I look, or whether I'm being weird. It's all set automatically in my brain.

People calling themselves "introverts" when they have social anxiety. Being shy doesn't mean knowing yourself more.
That's me...
yea
I took MBTI personality test, and I'm INFJ-A. A true introvert. And, I was in self isolation all these years in my class, everyone sees me as a wierd kid. And I'm okay with it. I don't have any friends around my house, I study and do things alone. I take presentations, seminars, classes. It's just the way I am. Just like that, not everyone has social anxiety. They're just introverts.
Having social anxiety isn't just being shy theres a difference..
OMG PLEASE TELL MY EX BEST FRIEND THIS!!! She would always call herself an introvert but she just had social anxiety she would literally make like 20 friends when I was gone for 3 days I don’t even know if she had either-
I can't even read one paragraph in front of my class...
i always just say ahh oops sorry ah i can't speak today EVERYTIME :(😬
I am 15 and I can extremely relate to this. Sometimes when there's any event or smth in School I would always go to the toilet and stay there, i don't care how long it is, i would sit in a corner and make sure nobody's coming and I cry sometimes..... And when it's over or time to get back to class I come back, I don't know why I just feel really good and better when I'm alone.
I was an extrovert 3 years ago but then people started deceiving me and I got into this condition, I used to hate being lonely but nowadays I love loneliness and feels like loneliness is the best thing for me.
I be doing the same but it's worse
same . Used to be social before lockdown. Now everyone tells me that i'm extremely introverted and I have social anxiety.

I had really bad social anxiety but then I got a job (im 15) and it just felt a lot easier to talk to people like taking there orders and I just realized that I was always scared people were gonna judge me for something I said in a presentation, but I found out how 90% of people aren’t bad. You just got to muster up the courage to overcome it I believe 🙂
Darn, I wanna get a job now...
hopefully everything will be better when i leave school cos at my school 99% of people *are* bad and acc judge the living shit out of me
@@idonthavealife4615 Hang in there, I understand because I’ve been through so many situations. Try to be good to yourself, you’re young & life feels difficult because you’re young. You need to start thinking positive thoughts for present & future. Remember you’re worthy, you matter, you’re loved, needed & never alone. Talk to friends, family members, churches & counselor. In area where I live Methodist churches Counselors don’t charge or charge very little. Take care & I’ll pray for you🙏❤️🙏
this! when i got a job it taught me to talk to people. im still awkward haha but ive defjnitely improved a lot! i used to be scared to simply be in conversation and stuggled to talk to new people but now it feels natural and manageable
I worked in New Brunswick this summer and out east in Canada people are super welcoming. Strangers will start up conversations with you all the time. That helped my anxiety a lot. I never felt like a burden there. I think all people with social anxiety should go there.
My dad: "You're just overthinking it!"
😔
The people who are saying it isn't real hurt the most...
You are.. Life is to be enjoyed. Stop worrying about people, because when you get old you're best friends are your parents.
@@Straline. Not really, it's called tough love. It's meant to make you stronger and help you mature. Anything that keeps you occupied, like a sport, job, volunteering removes the feeling of sadness, your brain will be too occupied to feel sad.

Oh okay hello random person
They react like uhhh hello? Or u got no friends 😂
this is very accurate, I always isolate from everyone unless it's my friend asking me a question, otherwise I stay quiet. I also have trouble with presentations, I usually stutter a bit. The worst feeling for me is the thought of everyone looking at me, laughing at me, and talking about me without me knowing
You are being way too hard on yourself. Others may laugh but that’s just at the moment. Be kind to yourself, think positive thoughts & remember you’re not alone. You are worthy, you matter, you’re loved & life is worth living. Talk to your friend, family members, counselor & churches. In my area Methodist churches have counselors & some don’t charge or charge very little. Take care & I’ll pray for you🙏❤️🙏
I’ll be thinking about conversations I had for the whole day regretting or wishing I had said something differently or whatever 😂

I still remember the time when we were given candy in class by the teacher because we were working so nicely in class, but me and my partner didnt get along well because of my social anxiety, i wouldnt talk to her and i did the work separately from her (so if i got something wrong only i would be blamed). So she was doing her work too. But since she was more of an outgoing person, she got blamed for the non teamwork. I was seen as the quiet obedient one, so i got a snickers and she got ridiculed.
In my senior year, it ate me up inside that it happened because of me, and so it took me some months to get the courage to apologize, and she told me she didnt even remember what happened and that its okay.
I still think about it. Its terrible.
u opened my eyes
Hey, it is amazing that despite the anxiety, you did it!
I understand how you feel, but you’re being too hard on yourself. Because even your classmate was fine with everything. Tell yourself positive things daily. Repeat silently that your are worthy, you matter, you’re smart, you’re loved, you can achieve your goals & life is worth living. I’ll pray for you🙏❤️🙏

Whenever feeling socially anxious , just turn your attention to some random sounds around you, it diverts your mind from focusing on how you are perceived by others

Stop bragging about your disorders nobody cares
When I'm gonna speak in class I will always have a bad feeling in my gut. Scared to be next. Heavy breathing, panic and feel like crying. I'm just scared that people are looking at me and think that I'm weird. When I was a kid it wasn't this worse but now it's so worse. I just wanna be normal

Thank you I did wonder why i kept getting nervous when I was trying to talk people
I been like this since a year or two ago but everyone said I was shy but now I know
All of these!! But omg when it was the day before a presentation I would lose soooo much sleep, I just couldn’t calm myself down and when summer would be close to ending I would get extremely anxious thinking about the future presentations that I would have to do! I honestly wish the school system would maybe do something a little different for the people with anxiety like if it’s a known thing that you have it you should be able to do your presentation solo with just the teacher but I know that’s probably too much to ask.
That system has actually been added to the school system fairly recently, i have my presentation tomorrow and my heart feels like it's racing, my stomach feels like it's about to turn in on itself and I feel a sharp and constant feeling of adrenaline and anxiety, but I'm still choosing to do it publicly because I want the feeling after to be the most relaxing and relieving feeling in the world.
I even get nervous for others presenting 😂
In ELA class, our teacher introduced us to a project that we would be presenting to the class. When I heard this, I felt so mortified knowing I was going to be talking in front of 40 some people (yes, I have a big class.) What made this even worse was that our teacher announced that our presentations had to be between 5 and 15 minutes long! Everyday right when class started, our teacher made us go in front of the entire class, 1 by 1 to deliver a speech of just 1 or 2 sentences in front of the podium. As I neared my turn, I felt like I could not even talk. My throat was so dry and i could feel my head vibrating like crazy. As I went up to the podium, I looked up and I saw EVERYONE’s eyes on me. I thought that if I messed up any of my lines, it would be the end of me. Well, this situation ended TERRIBLY. As I started to talk, my voice literally sounded so hoarse and like a whisper I could not even talk! The teacher told me to sit down and that she knew I was nervous. Everyone passed by me saying how I was “brave” to go up and how I “tried my best.” After this situation, everything has gotten way worse. I’m in 8th grade, so we have to do A LOT of presentations before we go into high school. Today, I just opened to my mom about my anxiety and I am finally getting the treatment I needed for so many years. After the project in ELA, I was so relieved after opening up to my teacher about my anxiety and she let me present to only her during study hall. Remember, its okay to be scared and seek help if you think you have symptoms. I can’t wait to start my long journey and I appreciate everyone looking at this comment. Have a great day/night!
Hey how are you doing now? :)
I've been feeling very sick from interacting with people for more than I'd like to admit and to be honest I've just been pushing it through, I realize now that it's affected my life and resulted in a lot of unnecessary mental torture and a lot of isolation
@@valgarcia540 Im so sorry to hear that. I have really bad anxiety that I can’t even sit at public events or else I’ll panic and run away. Interacting with people definitely induces anxiety for me as well, but exposing yourself to situations over time will help. Again I’m so sorry to hear that.

You have inspired me I have been getting okay grades but seeing someone who have been through this and has my dream job show I can do it to!
“Feeling sick before presentations”
Well that’s me and my brother 😅
The obsessing over something you said is the most relatable thing ever
Me feeling sick when the teacher lectures me infront of everyone for being late.
I do actually have social anxiety and I often do feel and actually get sick before presentations
My English teacher last year didn’t believe me and told me to just stop complaining and do my presentation every time we had to do one. I always asked if I could do it just for her at the end instead of in front of the whole class and she said no and was always quite rude to me. Every time we had to give a presentation or speech, I’d say I needed to go to the bathroom and leave the classroom for about 5 minutes.
One of these times, I asked her about the presentation, she shouted at me again, I left for the bathroom and she followed me, and walked in as I was leaning forward throwing up and she absolutely freaked out. When I stood up and saw her I panicked and started crying expecting her to start being rude again, but instead she hugged me and apologised for how she’d treated me
Exactly! Not even as an expression but *physically* i feel sick
May God give u strength ♥️
Dude you cant complain about doing presentations, its a part of school and most of the students feel stressed before presenting too.
@@hyejulko everyone has but not as bad as the one who's suffering from it!
@@hyejulko Yes. Nobody likes presentations. But some people worry about it so much that they lose sleep over it, have no appetite, are physically sick (like above) and have panic attacks. It is a genuine fear that some people have. Find some empathy for others.
I literally *DREAD* having to think of how to hold a conversation with literally anyone, even my closest friends. You can imagine how horrified I feel when I have to present in front of class or get noticed by more than 4 people in class doing literally whatever.
@_aakksame, i wish same
I'm full on terrified to present a class
The obsessing over something u said is something I do alot on school days
Feeling light headed and just staying quite when my friends talk-
Me: “I have social anxiety”
Friend: “Stop it we know you want attention”
Friend: *Gets Will Smithed*
If your friend actually said that you need some new friends. They should be supportive if you tell them your problems, not invalidate them
That’s not a friend. That’s someone that is insecure and wants to bring down their friends because it makes them feel better. You need friends that will bring you up and help and support you no matter what. That’s what a real friend is... I’ve had my fair share of friends like that and trust me life is so much better without them.
Yeah my group of friends tell me that everyone experiences social anxiety and that I’m just seeking attention.
@@i0073 same here, but i hope thing get better for you !
@@Animorix11 thank you, I wish the same for you.
I love how you also put “Anxiety is treatable” in the scary shadow filter like it’s a bad thing
I am a student with social anxiety, all of this are accurate to me. But at least I have one friend at school which helps me feel more comfortable
I dealt with all that. You have to fight thru it or go with it. I am 40 and still learning to get thru it. I prayed for help... and God sent me the right people to push those boundaries. I fought and ran into the conflict to resolve what I was going thru even though fear panic and anxiety were gripping me and breathing was hard. The more I did it the more I realized I could do it.
As a person with social anxiety, i barely answer questions and im sometimes scared of doing a presentation and never talk to someone but now im recovering and i get to talk with my friends and cousins and im getting confidence over time. if you have social anxiety here's my advice:
talk to someone and gain confidence.
Yesterday when I was at school I had anxiety I cried in front of the class because of how I was suffering my substitute teacher helped me and I felt better
THANK YOU for telling parents to not introduce their kids as shy!
Thanks to that I'm known in those groups of people as "the shy kid" and I will never change that role even though it's usually just my anxiety and I actually often become pretty lively when meeting new people.
We had to do presentations in my health class a couple days ago, the first day I requested to present later because I have a bad history with panic attacks and my breathing was starting to get shallow. He took that as me not being ready and was about to give me a zero. After class I quickly told him why I wanted to present later and he just told me to make a video. The thing with that is I hate my voice so much to the extent where I don’t even want to speak if I’m being filmed. So the next day we did presentations I was second and I could barely breathe when I was standing in front of the class…
I had brought a plush I frequently use to deal with stress and was squeezing it for dear life. The thing is, I have a problem with writing a lot when I’m passionate about something so I had a ton to read and talk about. By the time I finished I could barely breathe and immediately ran to my seat. I texted my friend what happened and put it off as a joke to try and help me cope. (It’s an unhealthy coping mechanism for me to joke about my stress and anxiety to help me calm down.) She immediately went to my class without any notice and barged in to give me a mochi cookie.
She’s one of the greatest friends I’ve ever had and I’m so glad to have her.
But, if a friend ever talks to you about being anxious or anything of the sort, if you’re able to get to them quickly and talk to them or even give them something to try and help them calm down, then try it. Even if it’s something small like a cookie or a small drawing/note, it helps a lot.
Oh! I forgot to say, on the second day when I was presenting, the teacher started yelling and lecturing the class which raised my anxiety even more… I barely had any time to calm down from that scare before I had to present so it made everything 100x worse…
I literally cant breathe literallyyyyy literallyyyyy what is the cure, it is a sickness do I just have to hide myself
I had/have this. In the late stages of secondary school I had it fucking bad. It was post-lockdown and I’d been a shy before covid but it just mega amplified it.
I grew my hair out to hide in it (male), had it fully over my face for a few months. I wouldn’t talk to anyone, wouldn’t smile, wouldn’t approach or hold a conversation. I was terrified of doing anything ‘wrong’ in a social situation, the worst part is I wanted so desperately to talk to people but I just couldn’t. I had 3 friends that I stopped speaking to once I left.
Luckily it’s not as crippling now but it’s still not exactly under control. I go out of my way to avoid people during walks because I feel like I’ll say ‘hi’ wrong (wtf??). On the upside though I made a bunch of friends at college, ditched the hair and go out more. I still don’t go out often but it’s better than it was before
now.. i know that the lockdown not only ruined the few nothing i had to offer with my worthless personality
well atleast i guess making music is not your dream(?) that just makes everything worse and even difficult
I get what you mean about wanting to talk to others so bad but just being unable to on a whole other level I'm like that and I hate it I see no way out... I'm trying to have hope but
I can relate to this so much. I’m in college now but I don’t even know how to make friends still. Everytime I talk to someone I’d overthink about it later or I’m literally always shaking while talking to them. And kinda jealous with people who have a friend group because I kinda used to wish I’d be more confident and talk to someone without being anxious but it’s so hard. And also I have a resting bitch face so, being quiet and having an rbf, people used to judge me a lot🥲 I wanna overcome this thing so bad
I'm associating to this video so much
I have really bad social anxiety, every time I want to talk to someone, I just sit there and wait for them to notice me and every time I try to get their attention, I’m barely noticeable. Every time someone sits next to me, I get even more shy and just stay quiet, hoping that the person won’t judge me or maybe just wanting them to talk to me. I just want one friend that matches me. Just one.
Then there’s me:
Hiding my social anxiety and m anxiety in general, just so nobody would suspect anything
Yeah if i tell my mom she will just take away my phone and tell me just get over it
@@user-yv7ei1gj6f frfr
My mom nearly caught me having an anxiety attack-
I sad I was cold since I was shivering
people always tell me to just not be worried about socialising because it’s easy and it’s not going to kill me - you can’t tell a person with social anxiety to just not have social anxiety it doesn’t work like that 🤦♀️
my anxiety is getting worse every day i can't walk into public without wanting to evaporate
Started going to therapy for my social anxiety this year. I know not everyone can afford it but it definitely helps and I recommend other people with severe social anxiety to try it out!
It helped me when going to therapy, but I got out of therapy so fast,,, so my social anxiety is not gone
But yeah therapy does help
Is there any medication
@@niksniks5307 they will prescribe you with medication if needed
My problem isn't affording it. I can't ask for help. I just can't do it
"Social anxiety"
Remembering komi can't communicate
Yeah but her classmates clearly love her, it's harder to know if they like you or not in real life :(
My social anxiety was raging in sixth grade. I wanted to say so much and even though i said it so many times over in my head i wouldn't be able to move my lips to say those words. It's gotten better now but i'm still super nervous because i don't have many friends and i want to make more this year.
My stomach did backflips just when someone could see me when I was doing volleyball
I make excuses to not socialize. I’ll say my head hurts and my mom will always force me to socialize. When I get home I usually have a mental breakdown. Then I’ll get physically sick from how much I socialized.
it's hard because I literally have trouble keeping up a conversation with anyone who tries to keep up a conversation with me, I usually think too much before or after I say anything in social situations or I literally get chills, physically/mentally tense or become shaky, swear it's literally easier for me to talk on the internet than instead of in person 🤦♀️

Im 17 just this year I finally got over my fear of just going outside of my own house since I live literally right in front of a freeway. My anxiety makes me nauseous and shaky and people, including my friends and family, keep telling me I need to grow up and get a job and stuff. They say they know what I’m going through and then act like I’m just a lazy, immature person who never tries. Ive tried getting a job and I try and try to finally build up the courage to go to an interview and get outside, just live my life, but I still haven’t been able to get accepted and I still don’t have a job. It’s unfair and I wish I could control it but it seems like no matter what I do it always finds a way to get worse. No matter how hard I try my efforts and struggles are never seen. How is this treatable when no matter what I do it just gets worse.
Hearing people talk behind my back, 12 job applications, all interviews denied, I can’t drive, I can’t even stand the only 2 people close to me, I can’t live my life. I’ve actually reached my limit. Im done
@@IForgot-j2orelax bro.
Don't do anything stupid
Worst part no one even recognises that there is something called social anxiety 🥺😭
I think everyone gets nervous when presenting in front of people but of course it can be more stressful for some people like myself.
“It’s just your menstrual cycle, you’ll be fine”

I have ADHD and autism so I struggle in crowded environments as well as having social anxiety and mental health problems
I struggle with body image and have attempted to end it all multiple times. I'm also anorexic from extreme bullying that went for three an a half years until somebody ( a friend) noticed on my school camp that I refused to eat properly. My recovery journey started about six to seven months ago

-a VERY wise person
SCHOOL Is THE REAL DEFINATION OF HELL IF YOU HAVE SOCIAL ANXIETY!
@Moldovianball true...like for real🥲😔
I used to have social anxiety so I started talking, crazy ik but it worked
UA-cam recommending me this:
Me: oh thanks 🙂 i needed this 🙂👌
Anxiety can also look normal on the outside but wants to hide itself so that you can feel more isolated
Everytime I'm gonna have a presentation I start to feel sick and like I'm gonna throw up and I feel like I'm gonna faint and can almost not talk cause I'm so anxious
I also have this, and I feel like I’m dying😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I feel this all the time but idk how to stop feeling it
Even in lessons I hate it since other people will talk to me but idk what I should do I just get to scared to talk
Thank you for highlighting this
