When I stutter, I'm used to noticing things about myself beyond my stutter where-as I think many are too consumed with their stutter mainly due to worrying what others think so being more worried about getting the word out rather than what's happening within.People may not notice or just ignore their heart rhythm and thus breathing being entirely off or really jumpy. I wanted to write this after I went to visit my mom in the hospital. When they asked who I was here for I stuttered a bit and felt my heartbeat go wild. So I wanted to write about how I directly dealt with it in the moment and after a stutter and with that, it stayed at the door. When it is a surprise, I may need to remind myself to be aware of my anxiety and heart rhythm in particular. As I breath out I already subconsciously imagine myself being able to say the word fluently like when we are alone.
