Practicing on a word that I stutter on makes me tired mentally Thinking that techniques like opening my mouth bigger etc just makes the fear worse. Practicing on difficult words makes me feel so tired mentally like I need a nap because I'm focused so much on trying not to stutter that it hurts my brain. Also makes my OCD worst.
