I have alwasy been terrified of supervisors, how do I deal with this?

I am a teacher and I have to work with a lot of people above me. I have to be evaluated while teaching and I always feel that I am the worst employee. I am not I know its all in my head but I have an insane fear of upper management. I ask for constructive criticism, and I follow through but I am always tense around principals and other teachers who are older than me.

I feel like anytime management talks to me I am being yelled at. Its very formal and uncomfortable. I have great anxiety when I have to meet with my supervisors ever.I have physical symptoms of extreme fear. I will break out sweating, be nauseated, dizzy, I cant concentrate.

any help would be great!

    That is their job. Scare the people below them to keep them in line. They are no different than you. Only they learned to control people through intimidation so thats what their superiors were looking for when they hired them. Just try to follow ther orders and retire early and get another job with less hassle.
