Hello Well im Sid. Im a senior in high school, and Im going to Cornell for college. I have a speech problem, but i think its more of a social problem. THe thing about is that I dont really know if I can call it stutterring.
Let me explain what I do first. If im in front of a class, and I see a word i get nervous on, I cant say the word. Like for me to say the word, i go and start overly stressing the syllable to get it out. For example if i say the word stutter sometimes in front of class, I go sssssssssssssssssss ... tutter. Its a long and pronounced repetition of the first syllable. However it only happens to me infront of class, or with new people, or on the phone. i dont do it that often with my friends, or classmates. And I never do this when I'm by myself. I talk perfectly fluently when im by myself, and just as fluent when Im with my family.
I really think its just me thinking im going to stutter. I get this low feeling in the bottom of my stomach.
Its just a bit funny that i started doing this at Junior year, when I had this really intimidating teacher for English. But I can talk like pitch perfect English, when iam by myself. So thats what irrattes me the most. How can I go from speaking like normal english, to like blabber, with long awkward pauses.
Also I make the funniest hand motions when I stutter. Its like im trying to force the word out.
