Is it when you are talking out loud or even when you are whispering, sometimes I might struggle with a word that is not familiar and when I talk out loud to myself it’s sorta like I’m talking to peopl...

Thanks for sharing, this is another good data point in favor of this. I will say though, my stutter was so bad that I had problems reading paragraphs during school. I used to dread it when we'd go aro...

Third year of studying in med university, and well, you just get used to it, and stop caring about anything, so don't focus on it and it will be alright (kinda, at least it won't be as stressful as in...
