I lurk here often and this one got me teary eyed. Since 2020 my childhood stutter came back like it was part 2 of the movie IT. I've been having blocks with this same issue. My name or any kind of personal information. I always get told to just try and be calm but it's easier said than done...I'm still trying. Despite it feeling like it's ruining my life. I can talk to strangers online fluently...but never in person. Feels like torment.
