I can sympathise with this, unfortunately I have no helpful suggestions! I used to have no problems doing presentations and in the last year I ended up having to do a few for my masters mainly over zoom (or teams and google meets), and I have no idea why, but doing online presentations causes me a proper fight or flight response where I feel like I’m going to pass out. A couple of weeks ago, I had to do another presentation at work, again via zoom because it was to not just the people at my workplace - but across our entire network and I felt breathless the whole time and an impending sense of doom and afterwards I felt light headed and dizzy for a while. I had panic attacks as a kid, and grew out of them. Then they’ve made a comeback triggered only by zoom (and other video call technology). It’s super weird. With the number of presentations I’ve had to do, I’d have thought I’d have got used to it, but it just gets worse.
