It can definitely be really effortful with a moderate to severe stutter to even communicate, like I'll have phone calls with family and after like 20-30 minutes I'll just be gassed. On the other hand, if you are able to get those words out with ease (whether through techniques or just being drunk or whatever) it can feel very good and empowering. That's the feeling that I strive towards - that feeling of empowerment and positivity and when I am able to communicate what's on my mind with little discomfort and make those personal connections.
