That story is awfully hard to read/hear. It’s like scaling an emotion mountain to perform a daily task. I’ve buried all my excruciating stutter memories deep inside a forgotten mental well. Yes, semantics I believe. I will appear fluent and inside my head I won’t focus on not stuttering/blocking at all. Continuous fluent memories/habits will defeat my shameful stuttering memories/habits. Eventually I’ll forget that I stutter, most of the time. It’s like replacing a bad habit with a new, good habit. We sound similar in the way we stutter, just different ways of going about it.
