Not stuttering everyday

Not stuttering everyday As a person who started stuttering in their adult life, I don’t do it everyday. So sometimes people are really surprised when we hang out and i speak fluently. But on other day...

Mine is usually relatively mild but sometimes it flares up and I don't even know the reason for it. But some reasons I've figured out are when I'm tired, upset, talking to certain people, or whenever ...

My stuttering comes and goes in waves as well. Sometimes it's quite manageable, other times it's a serious disability. Most colleges offer free therapy for their students. I took advantage of this, ...
