>What is the best advice you would recommend a stutterer? I would advice: Re-label 'confidence'. Confidence is deciding/instructing to send command signals to the speech muscles regardless, without reducing/removing/changing our current unhelpful behavior, feelings or thoughts. In other words, send command signals regardless, even if you focus on (1) past negative experiences, (2) anticipatory fear, or (3) sensory feedback, no matter how much you depend on these three aspects, no matter how convinced you are that gives the impression that the speech muscles are stuck and no matter how error-prone or hypersensitive you are
