When I get really nervous I tend to stutter quite a bit when I'm having a conversation with someone. Does anyone have any tips to try and prevent this? It makes me kind of paranoid
Try speaking a bit slower rather than focusing on getting your words out. This works for me sometimes, but since it's easier said than done I still have a bit of a stammer.
i don't stutter, but if i'm nervous and i'm just talking i'll talk really slowly sometimes (makes me sound mentally retarded.) or if i'm nervous and i'm reading something, i'll talk really quickly and slur words together.
