Stressed and trying to communicate So I had a stutter when I was a kid and have all but managed to keep it under control, 99% of the time it wouldn't be evident that I had speech problems in the past. It does creep back in at times where I'm stressed or nervous, sort of gives me away if that makes sense. I'm very good at controlling it and breathing past whatever got me like that but today I am really struggling. I am worried for someone who's not been in a great way the past few days and have tried messaging to make sure she is OK. I really want to call but I've gotten so stressed over this and worrying that I already know today I'm having trouble communicating. I'm so annoyed at myself as I want to be there for this person but I feel I am bringing my own problem to the table and to call her would help no one. The more I do nothing, the worse I get. I feel this is when it's hardest as I get stuck on the words and make an anxious and stressful time even worse. I just hate this.
