Recently I’ve been allowing myself to stutter. I went to see the director of a company to speak about work experience and I decided just to stutter because I realized it would be easier to take longer than to think of another word on the spot. Ive noticed too that the more I allow myself to stutter on certain words, the less I stutter on them. I think that proves that avoidance only makes stuff worse. It depends on the word though. If I know I’m going to have a really bad block or continued letter then I’ll swap the word
