Content

When you describe not being able to find the next word, do you mean mentally? Like, the word doesn't come to mind? If so, it may not be a stutter, since stuttering is generally characterized by not being *physically* able to say a word that's in your head. Do you experience any tightening or strange feelings in the mouth/throat area during these stutters? Do you sometimes have trouble saying your name?
