When I get in front of people, or even before giving a speech. I don't get the usual sweaty hands, or the voice problem, I really don't feel nervous. However, it seems when I get in front of a class every time, my neck starts to tense up. As if someone is trying to choke me.
Is there anyway for me to ease up on that, or what can I do?How can I get myself to speak in front of others?Hey Penny, it is only natural to feel any kind of weird symptoms during public speaking. As in most cases, speech nervousness can manifest in many ways. If the problem with your neck doesn't affect your performance, it probably doesn't require much attention. However, if you feel you are under performing, you can try certain techniques to help you relax. Progressive Muscle Relaxation is something you might want to try. Before the next time you speak try intentionally tensing your neck as hard as you can and then relax it.
I hope this information will help you move away from your problems soon.

Don't worry about people disagreeing, just talk to them persuasively and talk as if they are young children needing to be informed. But don't take is that you have to talk more childish in that manner, just assume they don't know anything about that topic, not that they are illiterate or unintelligent.How can I get myself to speak in front of others?open mouth and speak - the only way is to practice - dont put people above you , and know almost everyone is nervous! It builds character
