I think the problem with stuttering atleast in my own experience, is as we stutter our minds move a lot faster than what we can deliver in speech and it’s at that point where I stutter when my mind is trying to deliver the next word but my mouth isn’t keeping up. If I stop and think about the word I’m about to say and take a deep breath then it comes out with no stutter. I’ve noticed too other people that stammer have sharp quick minds. Maybe it’s not that we’re limited by our stammering but more so limited by how quick our minds can process and give out information and we need to try and either slow that down or train somehow to keep up. Does anyone else feel the same?
