The problem I have with this method is not just accepting the other person's judgment. I don't really care what the other person thinks of my words, except when the polite phrases don't come out, so I'm afraid of being impolite, which makes me stutter more specifically on those words. The problem I have with this technique is just that I still feel the stuttering as so frustrating to pronounce. I always try to force less, stutter voluntarily, and I succeed most of the time but the sensation of the mouth locking up remains so hard to bear physically
