Really? That's interesting! Could you describe it in more detail? Is it the "sensation" of stuttering, like, an anticipation of stuttering, were you to speak the words in question out loud, or are you...

Assuming this is true I would say it is because we feel like we *have* to be charismatic just to even the playing field so it is a self taught skill, even if it learned unconsciously ...

Woah, this is blowing my mind. I never thought that people could stutter in their own minds. I have never stuttered in my own thoughts or even conversing with myself loudly. How is this even possible...

Do you just mean that you lose your train of thought? Or literally that when you hear your internal monologue in your mind's ear, you stutter?...

If you stutter in your head, it is just something you deal with and isn't what I'd call bad. It is just more of a norm. If you have stutter free thought in your head, relatively speaking, and then s...

Haha isn't that weird how things like calling out tickets can be so fluent? That's because you're not thinking, you're just doing. Communicating with other people can be nerve-wracking and your brain ...

It's basically down to multitasking, isn't it? Stuttering takes up too much space, and there's not much room left for anything else. And also, stuttering takes up even more space when we're in period...
