I found out that I don't stutter when I suppress emotions (or when I don't care) I don't know if this works for anybody else. But I find that I don't stutter when I go into a "machine-like" or "robotic" mindset. There is a task, I need to ask something, I say it, I don't "ask" it. And it comes off fluently. I think this also happens automatically in a certain amount of people here whilst presenting a presentation (I saw several posts here saying that they don't stutter during long speeches or presentations but do otherwise) There are cases where you get into a deep conversation and you lose track of your mindset, you stutter. But overall, this helps me a lot.
