i have the same problem. it is so bad that at times i have to vomit from feeling so nervouse.

i find just trying to breath really deeply and facing situations helps. all this relaxing helps for about 5 minutes then u get all tight inside again. its like you cant relax even in your sleep. you have to try and face what ur nervouse about do things u usually wouldnt it does help. it will just take time. dont push your body you know what your capable of!

good luck, i feel for you!

Think positive and say to yourself "I really can handle this." Do things you want to do. I also found that exercise really does help, it keeps ur mind free.

Beckto agony auntGet to a psycharitrist! You may have a neurological issue that can be easily treated or addressed! It could just be a small imbalance that can be fixed easily. At the very least, having someone to talk about what makes you nervous might make you feel better.

Talk to your parents!

Take care, kiddo!

I know what you mean. Being all nervous and shy is like having a barrier in front of you, it stops you from enjoying things confident people can do. Do you know when this nerves thing first started? And how? If it's due to something like bullying what you have got to remember is that bullies are people full of jealousy. The best thing to think is that the bullies are the ones with the problem (if bullying is the case) and just forget all of what they have said and done. Just think that you are great and don't let the bullies win. Nerves is what they want in victims so try to destroy them through thinking how great you are. It takes a long time to cure nervousness. If you can't do it on your own then why don't you phone a helpline?

kenny agony auntTake some time out by yourself, find a place where you are away from the outside world, turn your phone off. Just relax all the muscles in your body and concentrate on your breathing while thinking relaxing and positive thoughts about yourself. Sometimes its nice to do this with an incence stick burning.

Also try a Paul Mckenna relaxation CD for confidence & self esteem.

All the best x

jomana agony auntto start with, you need to have every day a time of your own just to realx. i have your same problem and i was advised to always talk to some one if something is bothering me. also try doing yoga. another thing, try telling yourself that you don't have a nerve issue and don't talk about it a lot because then you send orders to your subconcious not to feel so and by time you'll gradually change.

good luck
