Covert Stutters, do you stutter when you feel rushed? Meeting at work was running out of time before I wanted to bring up an important topic. I had my notes written down, projected on the screen. As I attempted to read it, I couldn’t remember any of my techniques. I had trouble figuring out what words I wanted to say and in what order, despite the words being right there on the screen, and I was running out of breath - only breathing shallow breaths. Jeez. Thought I could’ve gotten through it ok. Just wanted to know if yall feel the same.
