Yes, I find it really hard to say my name which makes introducing myself a constant matter of worry. However, my name isn’t ‘st’ related, but I must automatically overthink introductions which I think causes me to struggle saying my name. At work though I seam to find it easier to speak… I think that’s down to having a workplace persona and almost being someone else in my mind during that time. Do you also struggle with st’s?
