Hi Kam,
Nikki's right about the cognitive behavior therapy. It works well for anxiety symptoms.
I'm a gulper. I'm not aware of being frightened to speak aloud, but to my dismay, I gulp - frequently.
This is a rather expensive solution, but my dad thought my interpersonal skills were lacking and sent me to a Dale Carnegie course. Part of that involves public speaking, and I found it helpful as well. (Nothing stops the gulping though, perhaps because I have no conscious awareness that I am frightened.)
