Hello Mr. life coach
I have all my life been difficult to perform when I feel I have expectations of me, both from others and myself. Therefore, my background has become very jittery.
I can handle most situations well and gets good reviews from the environment, good grades from school and employers, etc., but I always come to a point where I feel that it is becoming increasingly difficult to feel that what I do is good enough and everything feels overwhelming. The feelings do I become paralyzed, I can no longer perform that I ever managed. I begin to think illogically can not draw the right conclusions, feeling totally ignorant. Since I do not take me past this will I have, to survive with honor intact, to change tracks in life, to start over. But the older I get the whole thing becomes increasingly difficult.
Now I stand for the second time in my life with a nearly completed training and can not handle the last moment, despite all earlier gone great and I always been among the best in class. Furthermore, I am newly married and are afraid this will ruin our relationship and our life together. Since I have no income right now, I can not pay for an expensive treatment with a psychologist. I do not know how I should proceed?
Hoping for help from you Mr. life coach!

Hi Anja
Performance anxiety is fear of failure or fear that you should not fail to live up to their own or others' expectations. It does not count as a psychiatric diagnosis, but one can still feel mentally bad if you have performance anxiety.
When you have performance anxiety you feel afraid to be reviewed and assessed and then being caught by not being good enough. You feel too afraid of being humiliated if it would happen.
Performance anxiety is a feeling and is very rarely linked to the one actually performs. There are few who actually perform worse for their performance anxiety. It's usually about how you yourself perceive and evaluate their performance. Man stuck in negative thinking, rehashing and disparage the achievement gained and find it difficult to feel happy and proud of what you do. A person who has performance anxiety often sets high standards for himself and his accomplishments. Many are perfectionists.
Situations when you can have performance anxiety may include:
Sometimes performance anxiety actually be a positive thing. It can make you that collects and prepares more so that you really manage to perform better.
There are several things that characterize performance anxiety:

A person who has performance anxiety often sets high standards for himself and his accomplishments. Many are perfectionists.
Situations when you can have performance anxiety may include:
- Before the tests or presentations in schools
- When writing an essay or similar
- In connection with such music, dance or theater performances
- When athletes, for example for competitions and matches
- In situations when you must show itself, for example, to have sex.
Sometimes performance anxiety actually be a positive thing. It can make you that collects and prepares more so that you really manage to perform better.
There are several things that characterize performance anxiety:

- Negative and exaggerated thoughts of failure and evaluated negatively by others. The tanks are available before, during and after the situation in which a performance.
- Anticipation Anxiety before situations where you need to perform. It conjures up many possible negative scenarios of how bad it will get.
- Ältande the situation when you have achieved something. One can dwell long afterwards and get anguished thoughts on how to be perceived. The negative thoughts weighed seldom or never by positive thoughts.
- Avoid situations that evoke anxiety and fear. It may feel good for the moment, but do you never get to try their abilities or learn to manage anxiety. Then comes the fear, and the strong fantasies of horror scenarios remain. This may in turn lead to begin avoiding more and more situations and thus be limited in life and existence.
