Breaking the Stuttering Habit Chain As someone who used to stutter, I’ve realized that it’s often not just about the words we fear saying, but the habit chain we go through. We hesitate, think of the word, fear it, and then force the word out. And we can do all of this in a split second. But the stuttering habit chain can be broken. Reading aloud, practicing and mastering some speech tools, and doing daily mind training will help you immensely.
