I hate public speaking. It's like a phobia, I start shaking and my throat clogs up and I'd rather eat goat testicles than get up in front of a crowd.

Recently I had a lucid dream and I was alone on a bus and nothing was happening and I wanted to get out of there. But I was too afraid to stand up in front of everyone!! I remember thinking, "Am I so pathetic that even in a dream, I can't do this?!"

So I'm wondering, could people use their LDs to get over their problems in their normal life? Like could I set up a classsroom that I have to get up in front of, and practice public speaking? Or could someone with a fear of heights go up to really tall buildings in their dreams? Knowing that it's not real and nothing bad could happen would cushion the fear, and maybe that could carry over into waking life?

Whattta concept.
