Today, I had to present a project for my science class. I began explaining my project; looking at all the bored people, I got incredibly nervous. My nervousness then caused me to laugh hysterically, causing my classmates to laugh. My teacher felt sorry for me and told me to sit down. FML

Hi, this is OP. I loved all of your comments and read every single one. I couldn't believe this got on the site! Thanks to number #22: I loved you're comment and made me feel loads better. I love that everyone was so understanding. What's strange is that although I am a painfully awkward, I usually just get really red when I have to talk to the class. Thankfully I have a lot of good friends in real life to comfort me. (and a few new internet ones!) Thanks for finding my life entertaining!

Well, now you can think about becoming a psychology major in college and do a presentation about why presentations are awkward and be able to draw from personal experience.

This has definitely happened to me, except during a job interview.... Didn't get the job.

I'm extremely socially awkward. I introduced myself to a girl speaking so fast, she couldn't understand me. After which I immediately ran and hid. That was 8 years ago. We've been married now for 7.

Once, I got so nervous during a presentation that I started crying. The teacher felt bad for me and let me cut it short. I then preceded to run to the bathroom and sob hysterically for about ten minutes. You are not alone, OP.

I had to do a speech once in school and it was about abused animals and I got so shaky and nervous as I was presenting this speech everyone thought I was actually crying when I was done. It happens to everyone!!

Public speaking is incredibly uncomfortable for me as well. One time in a college speech class, someone turned to my friend and asked if I was crying while giving my speech. (My voice was that shaky.) To make it worse, my friend didn't think about it and just said yes.

I hate those people that don't pay attention when you're speaking of talk to each other.

At least she ended your misery. She could've gotten angry and told you to stop being silly and finish the presentation. I've seen that happen.
