With me, it is just certain situations that are worse, but these situations were never a problem before. The work/meeting ones are hard to overcome, but I am trying to work through it Then I have silly situations where I am at the drive thru at McDonalds and completely freeze or on the phone. This is more annoying than anything. It does seem to be getting worse unfortunately but I will try and implement the steps the other commenter mentioned about accepting it, embracing it and not beating myself up about it. I am completely aware that I am beating myself up over it. Good luck with your stuttering. We all know how frustrating it actually is.
