Staying in the moment of stutterer Today I went to restaurant and I decided instead of rushing to the stutter while ordering, I will stay in the moment and reliase what is happening. So I went for the order, I usually get block on s words. And restaurant have student discount and ask for the name. So when I was going to say "student", the stuttering feeling came in, I pause and instead of saying student with stutter, I speak student fluently because I spoke every syllable while feeling my tongue and mouth moment, like a child who trying speak a word for the frist time. Did not get a block and same while saying my name "S....". I ordered without any single stutterer. I just want to share.
