Unable to speak in groups

NAS79012

Does anyone have any advice for someone who is unable to speak in group situations? I can speak to people one-to-one, but find it almost impossible to get the words out when I'm in a group of people; especially if I don't know them very well or if it's on Zoom (whether I know them well or not). Any suggestions or tips on how to address this would be much appreciated, thanks!

  • Yup know this feeling.

    I'm not great with people even if it's 1-1 though I can talk a little with just 1 person. But in a group I must look so rude cause I can't even say a single word - I want to but anxiety takes over and it's like my voice is on strike. Really embarrassing. No idea how to get better at this.
