I feel like there is another entity in me that tries to pause my speech at wrong times and makes me do secondary behaviors and various tics like frowning, eyebrows raising. I feel like I am possessed by a troll and I even gave name to this entity. But that's just how it feels from the inside. I know it's not supernatural nor psychological. We know it is a neurological condition. Both stutter and tics disorder. They are just neurological things. Most misconceptions about stutter and tics flip causality. For example, people say "You stutter because you're anxious. Just stop being anxious." Nope. I feel anxious because some people react badly to my stutter. Or a narcissist mother says "you developed stutter to get back at me. your silent treatment and your angry eyes." Nope. Mother assumed speech impediment is a personal attack on her and now she's not getting any calls. Your analysis is like you listened to people like her and now they live rent free in your head.
