Stutter worse when sick? I’ve been noticing lately that when I don’t feel good, my stutter is worse. I don’t know if it’s because I’m not consciously thinking about how to sound more fluent or what, but I can hardly talk the past few days. I’m not even sick; I just have some stuff going on with my ear and the temperature and air pressure has been fluctuating where I live for the past 2 weeks. I work 2 jobs and I’m taking college classes so my stutter has been even more inconvenient. I don’t mind it but I hate having to explain to people in order for them to understand this is just how I talk. I guess I’m just wondering if anyone else experiences this or am I just acting crazy lol.
