I think all (if not most) of us have been in this situation or will soon be one way or another.over the years i understood my stutter got worse whenever i cant seem to control my anxiety,and it was as a result of me being afraid to stutter in the hopes of leaving a good impression with this person i have a liking for.. Sooner or later it was clear if i was unable to control my anxiety(my trigger) then my stutter would only get worse. I decided to not give into the pressure of the easy option of only being a texter so i would work on my triggers and gained confidence over the years.my stutter got very very much better and people cant even tell i have a stutter..
