Hi @Ed1975 welcome to the forum,
If you're handy on the computer maybe type it up and print it out.
I've done that a few times as due to my CPTSD I'll stutter and stall and can't get word out, so I'll hand them what I've typed.
Typing it out is a good way to make sure you get the full story out and don't miss things.
Also trust is a massive thing! but give them a chance , you'll know if they're the right fit for you. My biggest concern is when I walk out of the room into reception and I'm paranoid the people waiting can hear everything I've been talking about. Apologies if I've just added that to you as well.
Stay strong and don't be afraid to reach out
