Well, the thing that is true is that anxiety and overthinking can make your stutter worse and the only way to combat that is to actually go talk to people. On the other hand, on days where it is really physically demanding, if you really don’t want to talk, that is totally fine. For me, it helped explaining that to people close to me.
