Can a stutter be caused of anxiety/depression/fear? When i sing i don't stutter, when i'm alone i don't stutter, when i tried MDMA i didn't stutter, when i'm drunk i hardly stutter. Do you think that low self confidence, anxiety, depression, or even fear of stuttering could be the cause of stuttering for some?
