So, I just had a presentation that I practiced a lot for. This time I tried to practice with my family and also people in the discord call. Although my argument was good, when it was my turn to talk I was getting stuck on each words and the words that I would anticipate stuttering on I skipped. I went up to the prof and he said oh like idk if you want sympathy or something, you should practice more. I feel like a complete loser since I did everything to avoid something like this. But my anxiety took over. I feel like no matter what I do my anxiety takes over and I can’t do anything to solve it. Any tips?
