I was so nervous but apparently I came across very calm and collected.
My anxiety is through the roof. I think it's the new antidepressant I'm on doing it. I get a wave of nausea and horrid shock of nerves whenever there's a noise that's slightly out of place and my chest is so tight. My mind and body are wired.
I'm sorry your antidepressant is giving you side-effects. The one I was on also gave my nausea when I first started it too. It should clear up as your body gets used to it though...

That's great news about your volunteering, especially that you made a good contribution & your CPN thought so too. I'm sure you'll get less nervous about it all too when you get into the swing of things...
