I guess I do stutter more when I’m anxious… but usually I’m anxious because I’m in a situation where I know I’m gonna have to say something, and I’m afraid I’m gonna stutter. But other times I’ll just...

Hello everyone, I have a bit of a stuttering problem. I can speak fluently with my family and friends and even with others when I feel comfortable. But when it comes to speaking in class, during presentations or even with shopkeepers, I tend to stutter. Has anyone else experienced this?
