Any advice? So i have been stuttering since my childhood. The weird thing about me is the following: I never ever stutter alone, i could speak for hours and be as fluent as Jordan Peterson. Also, most people I know dont even know i stutter. But when im with two or three of my closest friends alone i do stutter. Sometimes on rare ocassions i can stutter a word or two when i speak with someone else. When i meet some new person I never stutter. On dates im fluent. But then there are situations when i need to make a phone call or go to buy something in the store and there the devil comes in all his might. If i need to buy something that starts with P or T im in hell. Job interviews also. It can be the worse. So i guess my stutter is all about anxiety related, has anyone manage to overcome this completely?
