Can someone get anxiety when he didn't have before????please help

[NewGuy]

Ok so i think i am pretty social person when the need arise i can deal with people put on a good show and i good joke i had pretty good presentation skills and i could talk with people i didn't know very easily.
it was actually part of my last position that i had to present for for people 3 times i week or so and i delivered sessions also both technical and non-technical before

every thing sounds good and all but here's where things get rather weird i couple of weeks before we had a business pitch which was kinda important and i was given the job of actually pitching it and i utterly fucked it up (its alright it happens to every one sometimes we are only human ) and i though that it was behind me not problems

but today we had like a company meeting (about 60 people or so) and i was asked for my input on a subject(company culture and what not) and just when i was going to answer i had something that feels suspiciously like a panic attack it felt like my vision was going into tunnel vision i head was like it was being pulled from all sides and my stomach cramped and i barley said part of the input and when i sat down i felt heavy like i just ran a marathon

and then i begin thinking and i found my self that in the last couple of weeks i didn't get out of the house except for work and i felt out of place in the last social gathering going to the corners of the room (i never did that before) not to mention that i have been mood swings feeling down for no reason

i am really really really sacred my lively hood actually centers around managing and speaking to people while pitching ideas and delivering relevant sessions to the different teams and i work with strangers 90% of the time and know i have to put effort to even speak to a little crowd

.p.s.i used to feel anxiety when i had a big game when i was little (i trained in karate *black belt*) and it was the cause of more than one defeat

Please Help me if you can!!!

Hello there :) it sounds to my like its anxiety
It maybe because you was under a bit of stress
I had mine for years but mine will
Become a lot worse when I'm under stress even if I don't feel that stressed.
This forum is so amazing and has so many great people and advice so welcome :)
Your not alone in this,take care of yourself and don't be so hard on yourself if your having a crapy day,things will get better

Thank you very much for your kind post :) but i really don't know what to do now as in my country its not common to seek help for things like that and i can't freeze every time i speak to a crowd because well i will lose my job and that is a rational fear its a competitive business with high pay and the don't generally give a damn about employees
is there like a technique to help maybe something like conditioning(i did that to over come my height phobia years ago )

Yes it can defiantly come randomly even if u never had it before. It could be a change in your life that caused it. Personally, for me my psychiatrist said the issues i was having were due to adjustment issues.
