Anticipation anxiety Hello, so I have noticed that my fear of anticipation for speech has gotten worse. Recently, my winter semester started and our professor wanted us to introduce ourselves and state interests and all. I was so scared and wanted to just run out of the classroom. Although I have dealt with stuttering all my life, I was always participating and because I wasn’t consciously thinking about my stammer I would easily state the answers. But now I feel like I have had a bad experience in terms of presenting and subconsciously I can’t get over it. Any advice on how to reduce anticipation of stammering?
