Why do I shake and hear my heart beat when I meet people? I have a fear of meeting people.

Anxiety about meeting people can cause a rapid heartbeat but if this happens all the time it is a good idea to get it checked out by your doctor.

In the meantime you may find calming remedies such as Passiflora or AvenaCalm helpful for reducing the anxiety.
