i used to be really outgoing and not self conscious. i had to do musical theater years ago for school and i found it easy to sing and act in front of people, no matter how corny. now my heart rate elevates when answering a simple question in class, and i feel awkward talking to people im not already friends with, especially girls. any experiences and tips?

Its easier said than done but when you hold ur words back just force it out ur mouth it helps me

Not necessarily a tip for lowering inhibition but be aware of micro expressions. For an example, when you are uncomfortable you are automatically gonna make a micro expression. Focus on not letting that happen so people don't see you are uncomfortable. Also, when you are feeling uncomfortable, try not to. It can help.
