Hi, Some people can take Inderal to help stop the
heart from racing when put into a nervous situation
such as a presentation. Inderal blocks the
bet-adrenoreceptor that is sensitive to the
anxiety chemical adrenaline. Just a thought.
It will usually give you a few hrs of pretty good
relief from racing heart and sweating if those
are your symptoms.regards,

I have Panic disorder and get treatment for that, Buspar 20mg/day and it helps my anxiety/PD pretty well but the talking problem remains unsolved. This problem arised concurrently with the PD. This is a big problem for me since i'm studying, and to do a presentation is impossible since I completely panic. I have diazepam prescribed for me, but even diazepam falls short when it comes to presentation.
