How To Control Nervousness?

When I a nervous or excited I ALWAYS get a red face, it's really noticeable and it's like a mask as it goes under my eyes, it also happens on my neck and chest. I am particularly worried because I have to give a speech in front of my year and I can sense its going to happen. Is there a way I can stop it from happening?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Nervousness is totally curable. It happens because you are fearing the future happening. It is apprehension. Imagining that something wrong may happen in future, and worrying and getting anxious about it. The affected people live in that negative future several times. They imagine the worst may happen and before reaching that future happening they ran away. This happens because they fear the future.

But how can you predict future? Future is unpredictable. Can Yesterdays happening repeat tomorrow? I do not think so. But here you are fearing that it may happen. You also fear that your hands tremble when you hold something. Then that happens.

Positive imagination is one cure. Close your eyes. Imagine that you are able to give lecture without any problem in future. You are able to hold anything without hands trembling. Take time and imagine every detail positively. You are doing it without any nervousness or problems. Do this exercise sincerely as many times as possible in a day and you shall see the difference within a month.

If you require more of my help in this aspect,Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
