Stuttering

Apparently when I was very young, four or five, I used to stutter. I don't remember doing it at all, but in the last year or so it's come back.

When I'm tired, or stressed, or need to eat I start to feel this chattery teeth sensation. Then I'm forcing myself to slow down to get words out. It's really disconcerting, because I can be one of those mile-a-minute talkers. Not being able to get words out, or not being able to get past repeating a single word or syllable is another is scary scary.

Of course the big part of the fear is that I'm once again out of control. So far I haven't been unable to get words out at work, but today I wasn't feeling well and I had to slow my speaking down to keep talking.

I've tried looking up any tie between diabetes and stuttering, and come up empty. I'm guessing that it's just co-incidence that it's come back so soon after my diagnosis and medication. It's definitely one of the strangest and scariest changes I've had in the last couple of years.
