If you are 'new' trying to speak fluency it's possibly tensing of face. If you thought about fluency a lot, then it's not, then it's definitely 100% psychologal because you hate stuttering and not al...

I agree, your mindset is that if you speak fluently, then it's weird, it's not a habit, it's not your way of speaking. Of course all these thoughts (somatic memory) makes the stutter worse. You even ...

I also think it is somewhat impossible to hide a stutter so it's a losing battle. Not to be crass but it is a little bit like when bald men or fat chicks use old pictures on a dating website. The trut...

When I don’t stutter (rare) after a few minutes of talking fluently I come to realization that maybe I’m not thinking clearly. Scares me at times...

A stutter won't stop you doing what you want - it's *how you feel about it* that can hold you back. I'm a covert stutterer. I spent years avoiding having to talk in case anybody heard me stutter. It...

While that can be true, I personally feel you give your stutter so much importance that it blinds your personality. Regardless of how much weight the stutter has, your personality will always outweigh...
