Public Speaking
Posted: 02-16-06 02:34am

First, I would like to introduce my self as a new member of this board. I do not suffer with a mental disorder as far as a know. :d

i am curious enough to ask a question here, because of the lack of internet resources to this very detailed question. So I am hoping that some of you here that suffer with schizophrenia can help to answer this question, or those that know people with the disease can also help.

The questions are based toward someone with schizophrenia:
1. How do you feel about public speaking?
2. What feeling can you expect, and if possible relation to the crowd size?

The purpose of the questions is to hopefully derive if it is a major or minor problem for someone with schizophrenia, or if it has nothing to do with schizophrenia.

So I would love and appreciate someone's personal view on this, or co-personal view from someone they know.

I do not want to confuse anyone to think that I am asking if fear of public speaking falls with in category of schizophrenia, but more of the question to if schizopheric people have difficulties with public speaking.

It has nothing to do with schizophrenia. Mind freedom is a great example why it isn't. Most of their employees are made up of people who have been diagnose with schizophrenia at some point in their lives and they constantly talk in large public groups. Also there are musicians that had schizophrenia and they perform.
