Everyone just says speak slowly, think before speaking, stop abruptly while speaking but when I'm alone none of this happens to me i will be giving a speech like as if I'm in a TED talk or something, but if it's a presentation i suffer it was so hard for me to realise that what's happening with me is not at all stuttering but instead a psychological disorder I can talk better to my classmates with limited blocks but only when it's presentation, viva voce, explaining something i suffer because I know people are expecting from me they are looking at me thinking I will teach them something even if I know the concept Better than the teacher I make myself look stupid at times just to hide my stammering. Life with stammering is not easy... Sorry I'm just blabbering non sense in your comment section I'm just too tired of this, i know I'm smart easily understands everything but when someone asks me to explain it to them I be like bahbahbah!!! And they think I'm stupid and dumb. This is a disability that can be made *fun* off that hurts too much
