/b/ros, I have my first presentation on uni tomorrow. My social anxiety is going crazy right now. I am almost done finishing the presentation on paper but when I'm supposed to present it, I don't want to have a blackout or fuck shit up so bad like in highschool.

Do you guys have any tips for me

I feel you OP, last semester during one of our group presentations in front of our class (60 people), I fucking choked. I just stood there stuttering and unable to finish a sentance, sweating profusely. Thank god one of my group mates stepped in and helped me but god damn, I still cringe every time I think about it

feelsbadman and even though I don't have any tips for you I wish you luck

There is nothing you can do on such short notice.

Normally if you want to perform a good presentation you prepared
- every question someone could ask you
- you practised it multiple times, also to other people
- you only need the presentation for extra visualisations of the thing you want to presents.

Your scared because you have no edge. The people you present to know the subject better and you didn't prepared it good enough.

Only tip I can give you (and a pretty shitty one) is to take 2 wodka shots 20 minutes before you start.

Practice in front of friends/family or (if you can't do that) a mirror.

Top tip. U will def feel nervous as fuck for the first minute or two. After that if u have the info then it will be fine.

Remember one thing. No one really cares. And if that doesnt work look above peoples heads and ignore they are there

The thing is, my groupmates fucking suck.

I asked what and how we are doing to present this, I explained to them what we were supposed to do, they just did not respond.

>>11086790
My class consists of highlevel tryhards, they indeed know the subject better.

I am fucked guys. And I don't think the vodka shots will get me far xd

I am schizotypal. I still managed to run for and win a local election, which required I speak publically. My best advice is simply remind yourself you're just talking to NPCs and their opinions of your public speaking are as worthless as they are. So, there's nothing to be afraid or concerned about so you can just relax and knock it out of the park.

Rehearse it in your mind if you don't have anyone to present it to. It's goddamn uni anyway, it's supposed to train you to do this shit, social anxiety included. Wait until you have to present stuff to mongoloid CEOs that have an attention span that lasts only for muh executive summary in the first slide and will just try to oppose everything you say because that's the only way they can make their job meaningful.

literally write a script and follow it but try your best to make it sound authentic like when a writer for a movie writes dialogue.

Just practice. Is it a long presentation? If its below 10 minutes you can easily memorize what you need to say with the help of powerpoint. If you forgot to say something and its not absolutely important then just forget about it, dont try to go back to mention something you missed, most people in your classroom arent going to be paying attention to the presentation anyways.

Or you can just be dead inside like me and not give a fuck about anyone besides some close friends who you have absolutely no problem making a fool of yourself in front of.

This is how I deal with public speaking.

Everyone you’re speaking to was a child once and is still that child deep down.
