Speech impediment triggered by family Hi guys, I’m 20F and I've recently came to the conclusion that my stutter and lisp are only triggered around my family — I’m home on a school break and I'm struggling so much to get my words out which are normally fine (for example, I couldn't say Cloud for a good minute bc I kept getting stuck on the cl sound). At school, my friends say they can barely notice it except I'm a bit of a word masher where I’ll kinda sound like gibberish because my words muddle together. I was wondering if anyone else experiences this type of “regression” or if there's any other triggers people experience that makes it worse. Thanks!
