That usually works. Keeping my mind busy on something does usually help, but it does change sometimes, and focusing on the word helps other times. Like I said, it isn't consistent, and it does my head...

So true. No one who doesn't stutter can imagine the depth of our pain. Being unable to express our thoughts and opinions without those pitying looks on others’ faces(if we’re fortunate), or the smirk ...
