Rants, advice and my life

Talking

I don't mean talking like talking to your friends. I mean talking in front of lots of people(doesn't have to be a lot). I absolutely hate public speaking.

First off, why do we need to do it anyway? I know it's because we need to "train for the future", but teachers are literally forcing people to do it. If students don't want to do it, then teachers should allow them. These public speaking courses are mandatory and in a lot of classes; they count as a high percentage of our grade. Wasn't everyone about "freedom for everyone"? Where did "everyone has the right to choose" go? Students shouldn't be forced to do these public speaking classes.

To all those who have stage fright, I know how you feel. To have to stand up in front of everyone and speak as all their eyes are on you. It frightens me. I've gotten to the point where when I have to speak in front of the class for English, it becomes very hot for me and I swear a river. I also get dizzy/my vision blurs. Sometimes my mind goes blank and I have no idea what I'm saying until afterwards. My friend thinks it's a panic attack but I don't know.

To conclude...I despite public speaking. I currently still don't have a way to counter my fear of public speaking. It just makes me so nervous and worried whenever I know that I have to speak in front of the class.

So I almost wrote a persuasive essay XD. I was a bit too into this. Maybe my teacher's strategy of making us write essays worked. Anyway, comment what you want me to rant about! Anything is okay! Also comment what you want me to give advice on! If you want to keep yourself anonymous just message me!
