I have always been very scared of making phone calls to strangers. One summer I gathered all my courage to call for a summer job. When I started explaining my reason for calling... I stuttered really badly on every freaking word, I have never stuttered that badly before so it made me panic more than usually. Then the person I called interrupted me and said that "there's no work for you".... I haven't called strangers after that. I rather go talk in person :( it's a shame that I let it affect me this much, but it really made my social anxiety worser. Edit: forgot to add that he sounded very mad/frustrated which only fed my anxiety :/ Fixed some autocorrect typos
