Quarantine has made mine a lot worse, too, to the point that I feel like I’ve just regressed past a ton of the progress I made recently. I get to the point sometimes where I can’t even THINK the word I’m trying to say. Luckily, my roommate is normally pretty good about just giving me a moment or letting me start over, though she occasionally buts in and says something for me (you know the way ppl do 😕) which always makes me feel so dumb and just. Helpless. Unfortunately, my family (esp. grandparents aren’t too text-savvy, and always want to do phone calls. Then, if I stammer too much, they’ll end the convo real quick bc it’s too awkward or they’re trying to do me a favor or something. It’s rough.
