I enjoy good periods and take bad periods as they come. Can't do much about it. I refuse to feel sad for a long time about a big block. It's frustrating, for sure. It gets me, for sure. But I don't le...

I guess it comes down to our individual outlook on life. It sounds like you're pretty at peace with your stutter, and I'm not in that place right now. I kinda needed to vent after a pretty rough day a...

I don't feel my stuttering is caused by anxiety at all. I don't feel any anxiety till after I've already begun stuttering. Generally if I am interrupted while speaking it starts and I trip all over my...
