Sometimes a sore throat can be cause by acid reflux, anxiety can trigger acid reflux and make it worse. I’d try to look into that side of it as well. I’ve had the same pain and taking care of my acid ...

Oh cool! Can you send a link? I'd be very interested in seeing that. That's great I'm happy for you, it's the freedom that's important not the fluency. All I've gathered is I seem to have trauma from...

I know the feeling. I grew up with an abusive father. Got no support at all. Only my mum accepted me. As immigrants, they didn't know there was treatment and support for stuttering, so I went my ...
