With me there is no pattern expect possibly certain words (Italy is a tough one for me for some reason depending on where it occurs in a sentence). I find this the most weird yet fascinating aspect of stutters. Everyone's seems to be slightly different. Mine can be best explained as not catching my breath. Like I get a pocket of air in my chest and nothing comes out. There have been times where I feel like I am about to pass out from a lack of breathing trying to get a word out, yet it never seems to follow any set pattern. Strangely enough I have had one day ever where I didn't have a stutter. By that I mean I have always felt like I have had a bit of a "pulse" inside me for want of a better word. Like my body is always on edge. Nothing huge, I don't have any ticks or anything like that but a feeling that my stutter is "there" inside me, ready to unleash itself, does that even make sense? Yet one day in school years ago it just stopped. Only for an hour or so, I must have been about 13 and will never forget it, I was in science class and I just felt really serene and it wasn't there for a bit. Annoyingly it came back pretty quickly but if I had a way to get that feeling again that would be nice...
