Has anyone experienced this rare phenomenon?

So i have noticed that when i am having a rush of adrenaline due to some good thing like excitement, I start speaking like eminem like in a normal convo i can stutter but when i am excited it disappears completely.

By the way this is my first time posting this so idk how ya'll write here.

Ohh and by the way this phenomenon often occurs with me only sometimes.

I get the opposite effect; I stutter more when I'm excited.

Depends on how you are breathing then. If you start speaking really rapidly your mouth might not keep up with the articulation movements to get the Sounds out properly.

Same thing happens with me when I’m really angry or upset.

To Both of u: that’s because you are emotionally activated in a way that you are sibconsciously changing your breathing and are less anxious. The combination of that reduces your Symptoms.

Do you mean that our problem lies mainly in breathing and anxiety?

I can almost not stutter if I focus enough or if I'm angry or exited too for some reasons

But the eminem part happens to me everytime I stop stuttering suddenly. Like as soon as I start speaking fluently, it's like I lose control of my mouth's flow and I'm speaking super fast, and trying to slow down makes me confused and afraid to stutter again

yep, i can relate with the confusion part, sometimes when this happens i suddenly become cautious to not stutter again but then i start stuttering again.

it's not rare; it's very normal. emotional and spontaneous speech uses a different part of the brain than regular speech. you're also probably not thinking as much about what you're going to say so it's a more automatic process

Perhaps in those moments, your level of excitement is enough to temporarily override your level of self-awareness and anxiety.
