[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 375879, member: 3704"] Could he do a Power Point presentation? For some reason this really helped our difficult child overcome this issue. He also has AS, tons of anxiety, and is painfully shy. I suffered greatly with anxiety about oral presentations when I was that age. One time, I even had a vasovagal event, and I passed out - I was humiliated and it only made the phobia worse. I have to give presentations to large groups as part of my job now, and I still suffer greatly with this phobia - but I have come up with techniques to make it a little easier. Bottom line, my public speaking phobia has never really gone, I just manage it. Valerie [/QUOTE]
