you are still in need of speech therapy ..Talk to your counselor at school, & explain what is happening to you & how it is affecting your self-esteem. Get your parents to lobby for help as well. Growing up is hard enough when you don't have to grapple with this sort of problem..
It is still probably a stutter. That is what I was going to suggest until I read the part where you said you took speech classes for stuttering. It is just a speech impairment and you should probably try taking up one of those classes again just to help you out with the pause. I think it would still be a stutter. Thats what it sounds like to me the way you described it. But, if its not that big of a deal to you then I would just let it be.
That is called "blocking." It is part of stuttering. Learn all about stuttering at www.stutteringhelp.org, your best source for information and help.
