Do you remember me as the person who keeps suggesting *to disclose your speech difficulties* at beginning of exchanges. Find a few ways to say it and include a slight description, rather than just use “stutter” bc most ppl think stuttering is just a mildly annoying hiccup in speech- or just an indicator of nervousness. I don’t think narrowing down exact amount each factor plays is helpful - just know there’s a combo of factors which vary greatly by individual. Someone w mostly mechanical disposition but very little “trauma” will probably have few blocks but frequent repetitions that smoothly transition to speech. Blocks happen bc you are *trying too hard* to avoid stuttering. Alcohol simply makes you try less harder.
