I had to do a formal debate for class once and my stuttering got terrible because i was so nervous. I love debates and making my point, but the formal one was timed and I was the very last speaker, so I had a lot of pressure. Long story short I got super stressed and stuttered my whole way through it. I was and still am really embarrassed about it because I was known as the best debater, and I just completely bombed it.
