Deer in the headlights

Hey All,

I’m an American that’s married to a French citizen. I’ve been learning French seriously for about 5 months and I’ve gotten to CEFR A2. My speaking is garbage, but I know I just have to try more.

My question is how do you get over the feeling like a deer in the headlights when people speak to you? Sometimes I can respond and stammer out a crappy response or grunt accordingly. I’ve been watching French shows to get my listening skills up. I’m around a lot of French people and I listen intently to what they say trying to comprehend. Still, every time I’m addressed, I’m lost.
