My stutter varies from mild when at home/people I know, to moderate in more normal/social situations, to severe in highly stressful situations. Nevertheless, I can control it, but one of my main problems in consciously regulating myself, and the stress that makes it worse. A degree of procrastination doesn't help in that regard. The problem, all in all, I think stems from bungled therapy early on, for a lisp. My mother is dead-set on thinking it's due to her making me repeat over and over, though honestly, I feel it might be a natural progression, perhaps. Nevertheless, I've had therapy and have been able to control it much more over the past couple years.
