DAE still stutter after drinking? So it’s quite a well known fact that alcohol, the social lubricant that it is, helps a lot of people get over their stutter temporarily and I’ve heard lots of stories where people get drunk and then they’re able to talk to people because they’re more relaxed etc. I do not experience this at all. My stammer is still just as much there when I’m drunk as when I’m sober. And I’ve explored this possibility many times, because hey a stutter free night sounds great right? But to no such avail. Does anyone else get this too? I really don’t think my stammer is anxiety related and I’m just wondering if this confirms it.
