>>423238 I don't know what kind of anxiety you have, but...
I have social anxiety and I obsessively worry about blushing or appearing nervous when talking to people. I get that adrenaline kick way too easily and get shaky, sweaty, blush like crazy which fed into the anxiety about it.
I'm taking a beta blocker, Inderal, which basically prevents the adrenaline rush. No shaking, no sweating, no blushing, and I can keep my voice in control. With the physical effects removed, all that is left is working on the mental hangups of thinking about it, and it's been getting better and better. I'm doing CBT which is a HUGE help, meaning I am doing presentations, lectures, and leading discussions for large groups of people. Scary at first, but I actually like it now. :-)
I know anxiety manifests itself in different ways for different people. If you have what I have, that's what worked for me.
Don't use drugs you don't have a prescription for, believe me it is never ever worth it.
