>I have *selective mutism* (a condition where you become unable to speak in certain situations), and whenever I try to act, my throat tightens up and I can’t get any sound out at all.
>For example, if someone hands me a ball and I say “arigatou gozaimasu” like I always do, I’m fine—but if it turns into “ah, doumo arigatou gozaimasu,” I can’t say it at all.
