You can start by giving yourself permission to stutter. It seems like you change your way of speaking to avoid stuttering. Don't do that. I was like you few years ago. I avoided stuttering using some "tricks". But couldn't control blocks in stressful situations. The solution to this problem I found was NOT to hide my stutter.
