Speech anxiety or stuttering? So when I read out loud or talk to myself, or pretend like I am having a conversation, and even when I record myself talk on camera alone I speak fluently. But as soon as I start talking to someone else I feel that weird anxiety and start stuttering. What the hell is that? How can one deal with this?
