this. I agree so much. I don’t have a constant stutter; on some days - it’s barely there. The mental thought of it is constant, though. On the days where I can “feel” my stutter and I’ve already had several blocks in conversation, I do t speak as much. I’ve had people say they barely notice some of my stutters, but in my head, it’s a giant pink elephant mocking me.
