Holy sh*t I haven't heard my voice speak so much in so long This morning I was all alone in my house and I just started talking to myself for fun, since I don't stutter when I'm alone. And holy shit I have forgotten what it's like to be able to just talk fluently like that. I haven't said so many sentences in a long time because of my stuttering, there were times this morning where I barely could recognize my own voice because I haven't heard it speak so much in so long. I could just go on and on rambling nonsense but I was doing it fluently no blocks or anything. My stuttering isn't really that bad compared to what I've heard, but lately, it has been getting worse so lately my communication has been kept to like one sentence. I just wanted to share this since someone else might be feeling the same and just talking to yourself non-stop about nothing without stuttering is honestly one of the best things I've ever done.
