Fyi, a lot of non-stuttering people are terrified of phone calls too. We're not alone in this, although no, I don't get worried whenever I have to make phone calls now. Overcoming this fear isn't something that comes without its obstacles, but the person you speak to doesn't really care, and less so if it's a fast-food worker or such. The only people who care that much about our stutters are ourselves.
