It has to do with certain beliefs you have regarding facing the audience. Those beliefs trigger certain emotional and physiological response/s to the situation. CBT is one way of treating these beliefs. Once you change your perception/ belief of that particular situation, you also change your response to it

That definitely sounds like "stage fright", feeling nervous or having anxiety when facing an audience or being the center of attention like that. Probably because of a feeling of being judged or evaluated. The body shivering is a physical symptom, while the mind upset is a mental symptom. The mind upset could be feeling confused, forgetting what you wanted to say, and overall, feeling paralyzed and afraid. This is probably one of the most common forms of anxiety and in general, almost everyone feels at least nervous in front of an audience. With it being one of the most common, there are many tips out there on how to improve it as well! Search for tips online or ask people what they do to be confident in front of an audience. With practice, it improves!

Hi, I would like to start off by saying that it is really brave for you to try to face your fears and challenge how you feel. It is extremely normal for your body to shiver when you are in front of an audience. This may indicate that you lack confidence or are afraid of judgements from people. You mind gets upset, or you feel overwhelmed because you want them to like you or appreciate you. This makes complete sense and so I know that because I was afraid too, but now that I have faced my challenges, I want you to remember that you can too and that eventually things will get better for you.

This can maybe be a result of social anxiety and fear for speaking or being up in front of people. Remember there are ways in which you can increase your confidence in this sense and there are many guides available on the website to help you. If you struggle to speak in front of people doing larger presentations, try set yourself little targets, such as ensuring you answer one question in class, lecture or in front of people per day, or becoming actively involved in a conversation amongst a small group of people each day. Something like that can really help you to become more confident in your surroundings.

I would personally feel like I am standing up there just for everyone to judge me physically. From a personal experience sweaty palms and whole body shaking is a freaking terrible experience called stage fright

because you have a hard time dealing with confrontation, you may have low self-esteem and not enough confidence to face people. It could be for several reasons, maybe you're shy or afraid of people judging you. I overcame this fear by continuous practice for instance taking training lessons in english teaching courses (random but effective)
