 Re: One in Four Classical Musicians Use Beta Blockers
Author: Liquorice

I have no experience with Beta Blockers. I also don't know much about them, and therefore am in no position to judge their effectiveness, or to judge anybody that takes them. Gregory Smith seems quite knowledgeable about the subject, and what struck me is that he mentioned a few times that they would be recommended by him as a "last resort".

What I do know is that there are psychological techniques to overcome stage fright. For some reason, these don't seem to be commonly taught amongst musicians yet. As a student I read many books on sports psychology, and figured out ways in which this field (which is quite developed) can be applied to music performance. Since then more "music psychology" books have been written. For starters I would highly recommend books by Don Greene (check out www.dongreene.com) His techniques would provide at least one of the "constructive ways" of fixing the problem of debilitating performance anxiety.
