Hey Super, Here’s what’s always worked for me! When my stutter was at its worst, I would volunteer to go first! Sound ridiculous, right? Here was my logic: I’d rather go first so I wasn’t thinking about it, having the dread, anxiety and pit-in-the-stomach feel that we’ve all had as you count down until it’s your turn. For me, going first had consistently worked. A side benefit is people think you’re brave for going first!
