Whoa! I never thought i could relate so much other people! I have never vocalised about this issue before, in part because not many would be able to understand it and the other wont even pay heed :P you know how it goes! Even for me its like i can roll out a fluent speech in a controlled environment, say in front of a large audience about a *specific topic or talking to a person who i know would be comfortable in listening to me even if i stuttered. My stuttering in particular is triggered by heightened emotions & in particular talking to people with whom i have already stuttered before. But since we are on the topic of telephonic conversations, i would like to know as to how do y'all make yourselves look forward to doing more telephonic conversations? any specific trick up your sleeves?
