Do you stutter frequently when speaking?

When your anxiety increase or even hours after events do you see yourself still struggling trying to explain something because you're studdering?

100%! I talk on the phone for a living & get screamed at for a living. When my anxiety spikes I cant seem to explain the simplest things, studder, cant get words out, cant think of the right words etc.

I get very frustrated with myself and customers think im frustrated with them and in goes with more anxiety and it happening worse.

ETA: I am an internet & PC (and now IPTV) tech support. So I have to walk customers through stuff and explain stuff so I see this more at work. It is a very common issue for me.

Yes, I stutter whenever I feel under pressure.

I stutter and/or go blank (fish for but can't find the word I'm looking for). Then my inner critic goes ballistic on me! I'm on disability retirement now and can't imagine being able to interview for a job, let alone be hired and then actually DO the job.

When flashbacking to a specific trauma, at that emotional intensity of pain, yes.
