I also started stuttering more after the pandemic. Before the pandemic I had a really mild stutterer but now I stutter almost every sentence. I have tried to figure out why I stutter more now than before but I have realized that the best way to deal with the stuttering is to just accept it and don't let it define me! It is possible to be social and fun to hang out with even though you might not speak perfectly. Nobody is perfect! If you are really bothered by your stutter I can really recommend talking to good friends about it. They might be able to give you some support!
