Haha yeah I can relate to that, the perfectionism to try and make a perfect sentence only really makes me more anxious, my type of stutter is more so the pausing and it always feels like I’m holding my breath or I freeze and do a little tic to help say the word, like blinking a bit more as I’m trying to say the word(s). When I also freeze and try to say the word despite pausing, I tend to lean/step forward and only when I do that the words would come out. Sorry if the explanation is confusing to understand :3
