So I wasn't sure where to put this topic to be exact, but, recently I've noticed that I stumble over my words a lot.

Sometimes I have to really think about what I'm going to say before I do, but even then, I still manage to misplace a word in my sentences or mispronounce it completely or stutter.

And since I've noticed, I've gotten more and more nervous about talking to people. Whenever I'm trying to explain something, I can't articulate it properly, I have no problems with writing, but when it comes to saying something out loud it's a struggle.

I'll be talking about an experience with a friend and I won't be saying things properly, I'll stutter and I get weird looks from it. It doesn't happen all the time, but it really bugs me when it does, and it leaves me completely embarrassed.

And people wonder why I don't talk much, because when I do I either get picked on for it, I don't get heard or I screw up what I'm trying to say.

Anything like this maybe? I notice that in the last year my speech has become somewhat affected but not as bad as in this video. Mine is similar to a slight stutter.

There are a fair few speech disorders. Think I have at least 3, 4 if include "the anxiety whisper speaking voice" :P Should check out Wiki. I was reading about them (and too much other stuff) about a year and a half ago. Can't remember diddly though, lol.
