Odd I noticed that I don’t stutter when giving a presentation or speaking to a large crowd. I’m more conscious of my speech and I also feel a very high level on confidence while speaking about something I’ve been educating myself on but I’m a nerve wreck when speaking to a smaller crowd, or maybe when I’m introducing myself where saying my name can become an issue. I try to remind myself that there’s no reason to be nervous but it just becomes worse. Anyone else has this problem?
