You're right. Start simple. Be honest. Don't be deceitful about your stutter. Don't conceal. Don't avoid. Just as people mirror, they can tell when we're lying. And they misunderstand. They can see that we lie, but they may not see what we're lying about. Or why. As such, they see us as a liar. Not understanding our underlying reason. Honesty is the best policy. Don't hide your stutter. People will think you're hiding something else.
