The guitar player said hey man come up and play something for us on Mic. I tried to say he'll no but got pressured into it. So I strapped on the guitar and tried to play one by metallic. As my hands were shaking somebody said I think that's metallic. I got this hot sensation behind my ears that moved to my face and then just hit em with a dive bomb and put the guitar down.

    I really struggle a lot with this problem. And the bigger problem is, i get this even if i'm alone and record myself. As soon as i start the recorder, i lose focus, it's like i don't know what I'm supposed to do for a second, then after i start playing the slightest mistake or imperfections "breaks" my playing and i just get 100% lost. It's really stopping me from getting good practice :(
