It's totally normal, I'm 22 in college and still get serious anxiety about giving a presentation or speaking to a class or even to a group of people, I freak out. And I'm normally a confident, intelligent person and I come prepared to all my presentations, but then when I get up there I completely change and give a crappy speech. I get so nervous even days before. Then before I give it I worry. I breathe heavy, get all lightheaded and dizzy, and I want to throw up.
You just have to keep doing it, keep practicing and learning. My public speaking course in college helped me a lot. Just remember that if you think about it, there's nothing to really worry about in the first place so just try to relax and be confident, and well prepared.
IIN to be 17 and still be absolutely terrified of oral presentations?
