Teresa W, Give the TEA forms a try for a month or two and if you do them everyday I think they will ease your anxiety about public speaking. It's usually the way we are thinking which is usually blown out of proportion that causes the anxiety and if you catch those thinking errors and correct them it will probably help you a great deal.

This is sound advice. The TEA forms have helped me keep my anxiety under control.

Thanks for the props Arlenez. I hope you are having a great summer

Hi Arlenez and everyone else
Hope everyone had a great summer!

Kathie the TEA forms are a great way to eliminate anxiety. T stands for thought, E stands for error and A stands for analysis.

Amen to that. I hope I never have to take another maintenance med for anything ever again!
