Definitely has to do with personal rela6, I can talk to family and friends okay, my gf is the first person outside my family I can actually talk too without much of an issue. With her family it's on and off, I'm confident but I stutter a lot, alot of blocks but they understand, but I don't feel as connected to them as the ones I do t stutter with y'know? Coworkers, friends of friends or just new ppl I can't seem to have a grasp of how to stop it. Found out fairly recently that if I let someone know I have a stutter, I'll stutter less, the fear of them finding out usually makes it harder for me to talk as opposes to me letting them know myself
