Thank you for posting this. I do deal with a minor stutter, but I don't identify as a person who stutters. I am also a graduate student in the field of communication sciences and disorders. I've had an interest in learning how to help people who live with stuttering ever since I attended a presentation put on by members of the National Stuttering Association four years ago. I've just been an observer on this sub, until now! This is a very heartfelt and honest post. "Whenever i tried to understand what happens during stuttering it feels like i lost my consciousness Of speaking and my chain of thoughts and i just feel lost, and i feel like alien like i doesn't belong here..." That is powerful stuff right there.
