What? This is dumb af, who told you that? I can even compare this to myself 1) physical problem: nope, i do pull ups, swimming and running, I'm in pretty good physical shape, but it doesn't affect the stutter at all, the only reason why i began to do a physical lifestyle is because i thought that it would give me more confident and that my stutter would lower, spoiler, it didn't at all (lol) 2) lack of intelligence: nope i study in medical university, i study a lot, i also learned an english language (my native language is russian) maybe not on superior level, but it's enough to read and understand foreign speech, but i very suck at speaking because well... You know why, tomorrow there will be a coloqium and i will need to tell a teacher about a skeleton and muscle system, i tried to train my prepared speech in front of mirror, but i failed, i tried again and again, but that still didn't work i got upset and stopped, like i know what i need to say, but also i know that i will stutter, it sucks so much I got a little raged, sorry, so the point is physical and intelligence problems are not matters (at least in my case) The only thing that actually work is TO NOT THINK ABOUT STUTTER, easy to say, but for me it's impossible cause i think about this every day and every hour, i wake up and my thought are "ohh great, another day of trying to speak correctly and not stutter, ok here we go" So please tell me, how often do you think about stutter, cause that is actually the only thing that matters and when you don't think about stutter at all?
