Feeling Good Podcast | TEAM-CBT - The New Mood Therapy
419: Ask David: Changing an SDB; Intense Public Speaking Anxiety

One concern I have is that sometimes people with anxiety are hoping that the anxiety will go away first, and then they'll face their fears. But my experience has always been the opposite, that if I'm facing my fears on a regular basis, then my anxiety goes away.

And so it may just be that there's kind of a process resistance and that one of the best techniques this person could do is just to keep giving public speeches and more frequently and longer speeches and get more involved in that. And then I suspect their anxiety, in fact, would kind of go away over time.
