Social anxiety & a : phobia of public speaking can both increase stammering. Speech/language therapy helps you learn to slow down speech, regulate your breathing & go from single-syllable responses to longer words & more complex sentences. Therapy also addresses anxiety when speaking. A psychiatrist can prescribe Propranolol 30 minutes before your presentations, if a phobia, or daily medications if social anxiety.
