Stuttering and social anxiety Anyone else have this unholy combination? If so, how do you deal with it or how has it been treated? I feel that they aggravate each other and the therapy I've had for has been ineffective. The stuttering therapies mostly deal with the mechanical side of stuttering and have insufficient knowledge of social anxiety, and regular psychological therapy lacks the knowledge about the mental side of stuttering.
