I was just wondering whether anybody else who has or is going to school or college speaks up in class and stuff.
I know SA has something to do with it, but still for some reason I can't raise my hand or say anything in class. And times when I am forced to talk I just end up saying something stupid or stating the obvious.
Either it is because I don't have anything productive to say or I fear that everyone is gonna look at me and be like, "I thought this was the quiet kid, he's not supposed to talk". I just made that impression that I am the quiet kid and once that happens it just is really difficult to change that.
It just pisses me off so much that everyone else can do it so easily but I'm struggling![Crying :cry: :cry:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
There's a difference between shy and my situation, because I see shy kids in my class and they don't talk often but at least they do talk sometimes and when they do they seem very comfortable doing so.
To make matters worse, I got a presentation to do in a week and I am damn nervous!!
(Thank god its a group presentation and I only have to speak 90 seconds)
I was wondering if any of you have the same/or similar problem I have and if you have gotten over it what did you do?
And if any of you have some experiences similar to this you can share that too.
