Stuttering *more* in anxious situations is common for people with the disorder (myself included!), OP said they *only* stutter in these situations which is different. I think in terms of treatment approach, those who stutter due to other conditions (such as anxiety) treat the underlying condition and maybe have additional speech therapy. Whereas those with the disorder can only really target speech therapy. If that makes sense!
