> As a kid, reading aloud in class was always nerve wracking because of this. Yup, reading out loud was the absolute worst. I have different issues though, and because of my reading's tight associations with speech(1), I couldn't even read ahead. I think my "only-when-read-out-loud" stutter comes from the social anxiety I developed here. (1) i.e. To read words with my eyes, I have to mentally speak them to myself.
