I agree, I’m very stutter-positive and I’ve come along way with self-acceptance, but speaking will always be harder for me then it is for others. It *is* a chore, it requires focus and effort, whereas for others it’s totally automatic. Stressful speaking situations will always be at least a little scary, there’s no way around it. Im happy if stuttering only stresses me out *when it’s actually happening*. I used to think and stress it about it constantly, and that was hellish.
