I feel comfortable when I'm drunk I'm a 19 years old male. A week ago I got drunk by tequila and I felt very comfortable with my speech, I didn't even think before I speak, I just said everything in my mind and I was very good. What is that about? I think the most important thing that make my stutter worse is caring about it too much. If I forget that I'm a stutter, maybe I can speak better than my current speaking. Sorry for my bad English but I think you got what I said. What do you think? Is there a way to be careless about my speech and stutter?
