I’m the same way. A large base of researchers (possibly a majority) on the matter believe that stuttering is a symptom of some sort of specific social anxiety. Therefore, it would make complete sense that words/phrases that you feel are more important, you may unconsciously feel more tension/anxiety/pressure to make sure you say, and subsequently makes you stutter more profusely.
