About Stagefright
Called by many names: stagefright, fear of public speaking, presentation anxiety, shyness, and social phobia/anxiety are all really considered performance anxiety which is specifically defined as a.) the inability (irrational fear and anxiety) to self-express in front of others and, b.) not wanting to draw attention to oneself, as in being the center of attention. For more details on defining the problem, read my newsletter.
Performance anxiety and its classic symptoms (see Self-Test) actually affects millions of men and women in every career, every age group, in every walk of life, not just performers and presenters. In fact, performance anxiety is the number one fear/phobia people experience more than any other, even more than the fear of death.
