I’m feeling the same way. I stuttered for about a month in high school but it was intense enough for others to notice. I had no idea until college that it was a psychogenic stutter when my professor explained to that is what it was(it was a speech pathology class so they had the training to come to this conclusion). Lately it is happening again and I hate myself for it. I feel like I’m faking it subconsciously and making mockery of “true” PWS(those with the classic developmental stutter). Keep telling myself I need to snap out of it and stop.
