"Glossophobia"

Have you got the jitters? Are you a nervous wreck? Well maybe or maybe not but its a fact that most people have experienced some type of nervous breakdown whether it be excess sweating, trembleing of voice, muttering, talking too fast, shaking, twitching, puking, and the list goes on. All of theses nervous symptoms may lead to destructive public or class presentaions or simply embrassment.  However, there are ways to oversome such cases by practicing multiple times beforehand, standing in front of an imaginary audience or mirror to recite your presentation and a host of other interesting methods of overcoming one's fears. Glossophobia or speech anxiety is the fear of public speaking. The word glossophobia comes from the Greek γλῶσσα glōssa, meaning tongue, and φόβος phobos, fear or dread. Many people only have this fear, while others may also have social phobia or social anxiety disorder.
