Yea I find this too I am a right chatter box with friends and small groups but if I have to give a presentation at college or talk to a room of people I get all the same symtoms and I stuter and mess word orders up also I find this if I have to read aloud it make me feel even worse about my poor reading skills, (i'm 17 and my 9 yr old brother reads better then I do)

Absolutely, individuals that do have dyslexia often have a problem with public speaking. A few other symptoms of dyslexia is word finding difficulties and sentence organization.

This becomes very apparent with individuals who have to public speak. A good organization to help, however, is toast masters. It is very scary but if you find a good group and you trust them and tell them this information, they can help.

ooooooh yes, this is deffinately associated with Dyslexia. i find that any sort of pressure makes me go blank and become confused and with a Dyslexic, confusion leads to more confusion so i often get lost in whats going on arround me and then start to get overwhelmed. ive solved this problem by practice. if you own what your saying, you're less likely to become nervous and overwhelmed. also, destressing before you have to speak (ie: breathing deeply, taking a walk or just destracting yourself) and also try to socialize with at least some of the people your going to be talking to helps also.

i as one , with star burst thinking, have to make some talking point notes, before i speak in public. i relink my thoughts to be linear and smother flowing when i am speaking. i have noted some very bright minded people using this process. With practice i have overcome my sweaty palms and dry mouth and look at my friends in the audience. What a joy it is when we get our ideas across to our listeners. i am in good company with dyslexic people, i find them wonderful , kind and very sincere people.
