Talking is a two way street, 50% you 50% them. If someone cuts you off it's because THEY have poor conversation skills. 1.If someone makes you feel pressure to rush a sentence out it will make speaking much harder. 2.If someone cuts you off it will make speaking much harder. 3. If someone ignores what you have said it will make speaking so much harder 1,2 and 3 make speaking much much harder for ANYONE. A couple times when someone didn't like me they would deliberately do 1,2,3 to make me stutter more! I have found all of my closest friends have really great conversation skills, which is one of the reasons I hardly ever stutter with them. SOOOOO most of the problems you spoke about are other people having poor conversation skills. DON'T FEEL BAD it's not your fault
