Anyone else avoid family gatherings or any gatherings because of their stutter? And if they do go you just sit in the corner on their phone. Or do you not let your stutter determine weather you’re introverted or extroverted?

Anyone else avoid family gatherings or any gatherings because of their stutter? And if they do go you just sit in the corner on their phone. Or do you not let your stutter determine weather you’re introverted or extroverted? Tbh i feel like im made to be extroverted and super talkative since thats how i remember I was as a kid before becoming self aware and developed a severe stutter. Now im uper introverted and antisocial but have a lot of conversations with myself in my head or comment on what others are saying but in my head. Idk why but i just feel like if I dont talk or open my mouth others will view me as normal up until the point where I open my mouth, but some people say I look rude by doing this.
