Yes. I teared up at a work meeting. I was speaking and had a block. Tried to push through and it wasn't working. I told the group never mind and they were encouraging me to speak and saying it is ok. I then told never mind again and didnt speak for the rest of the meeting. It was hard because it was an interesting topic and I had a lot to share but after what happened I lost my desire to speak up. Thinking back I think my tears came from frustration. I remember thinking how come Im not fluent like everyone else at this table. Why is speaking so hard for me? My stuttering started off mild in adulthood and now it is getting worse.n
