I 24F just went to a psychiatrist, who prescribed me propranolol. I have been in therapy for two years working on coping mechanisms, which has helped a lot, but I still experience severe performance and social anxiety. At work specifically, during presentations and even meetings, my heart pounds out of my chest and makes me unable to speak. I shake and sweat uncontrollably, and no matter how many mental / mindfulness techniques I've tried, nothing stops it. 

I was instructed to take it before one of these triggering events on a case-by-case basis, as it is not an every day anxiety medication. She said it won't do anything for the anxiety I feel in my head, but it will help the symptoms themselves, which is what I'm looking for. I'm curious for those who have taken it, did it help your physical symptoms?
