I have a serious anxiety problem. I somehow got involved in this Muslim youth group, on the executive board. (I think at the time, I thought I was over my anxiety issues, but I was wrong) They had a retreat, which I loved, but I didn't really want anyone to know I was on the board. Now, they are starting chapters and as the NJ rep, I am kinda in charge of starting the Jersey chapter. I had a meeting and got so sick right before. During the whole session, I kept stopping and saying dumb jokes, but I was SO nervous. Afterwards, I was still so shaky. I don't think I can do this. I get freaked out too easily. I don't even want to tell people about the group because I don't want to have to talk in front of new people.

i can relate on some levels. been there. weird thing about me is even though, i might be sick due to my anxiety. i always blame it on somehting else. i'd suggest that you should take a good friend along with you, let him/her sit while you talk and keep making eye contact with the familiar faces, so you don't have to face the new ones so often. also, practicing your speech before hand should help produce a clear coherent speech. iA.

i dont know which group are you refering to, but i dont always believe things have to so formal. you can make it into informal discussion group of somesort. discuss the goals/future plans of this new chapters etc..jokes aren't always bad to break the ice. just keep 'em coming whenever you feel like you had enuf of serious talk. : btw: there's no way out of this issue, until you consider it a challenge and overcome that this weakness. its easy, believe me. just don't underestimate yourself. i hope things will go smoothly for ya

i recently joined an usra (halaqa)... i love it! alhamdulillah

I tried the whole, "bring a friend" with me- my 2 sisters were there and my BGF. I knew everyone there except for like 2 people. It was supposed to be informal, and everyone had the information in front of them. I just said really dumb things, that made me sound dumb. Like, I have to go to church on Sunday, Who says stuff like that? I managed to get everything out, and got decent suggestions, but if more people come, I don't know if I can handle it. I think there are drugs to help with this problem, right? I was trying to explain why this group was different than other groups, and while I know how and why, it came off as like, "We are better because we don't have THEM" (It was a racial thing.) I didn't mean it like that, but my nerves just made me studder. I'm callin my doctor tomorrow and getting drugs. I can't keep doing this

don't be too hard on yourself. ppl are forbearing and forgiving especially if they know..it was all unintentional. well, i dont know much...but im assuming your doc might go along with some sort of "theraphy"+ might prescribe stuff like "Paxil/Zoloft". when im like that, i also spell out the truth in a plain crude way. once i said, "i see noone is respondin the group emails as if I am speaking to myself. can anyone be my companion for a day. so i dont feel like im speaking with myself". then i realized i just messed up big time. holla. my life moved on, not a big deal. even though, a lot of mishap happened, but i wouldnt deny the goodness that came out of it. all the best.

similar note: I am extremely stressed about next week, i have few things coming up. i'd appreciate if fphers will keep me in their du3as.

thanks.
