Though it’s not necessarily the root cause, Stuttering can certainly be related to PTSD and anxiety. We don’t stutter because we are anxious, but anxiety (including PTSD) definitely makes stuttering worse. I’m glad that you consider self—acceptance to be the best tool in stuttering therapy😁 I do think comorbidity is common when it comes to stuttering (ADHD, Autism, OCD, etc etc), and we do know that stuttering is genetic! For me, studying to become an SLP was a great experience and truly shaped me into the person I am today. As a stutterer myself, I felt a passion to help those like me, so it’s been very fulfilling so far. If you feel passionate about helping people find their voice, I highly suggest it!
