For most people, it's the fear and nervousness of public speaking that's the problem (not the content, knowledge, or skills of the presenter.) This fear can hold people back (it did for me). I'm sure Toastmasters would have the same impact (and I went to a few TM meetings) but I couldn't make it work with my other commitments. Propranolol is immediate and from a personal experience, it was extremely helpful for my career, confidence, etc.

- pastage 7y agoCRISPR and drugs both have the same problem though, they lead to physical damage IF they go wrong (which they always do for some). I had a medical need for adrenaline blockers it gave me terrible nightmares for weeks, changing meds did not help. They obviously did help you, so anyone else just be careful, biology is complex.
