Me too! How strange. I’ve said this since my childhood (in my late 20s now) and have had multiple speech therapists seem to not believe me when I told them. Put me in front of a class doing a presentation or public speaking, I’m all good, fluent as hell. Put me at home speaking to my own parents, and sometimes I can hardly get a word out! It’s fascinating to me, but also difficult when so many of the fluency methods I’ve been taught throughout therapy seem to be based somewhat around relaxation, when that doesn’t seem to be my issue at all.
