Fantastic comment! My goal is to make the topic of approach-avoidance conflict more open to discussion.. :) what you mentioned about "based on the environment" aligns perfectly with my point (in that,...

I've seen your other post as well, here's my advice based on my experience - realistically your stuttering will always remain. What is in your control is the feelings you have towards your stuttering....

I did a course in the UK called the starfish project that taught costal breathing. Definitely works but found it quite hard to keep going, never quite becomes second nature. Don’t use it at all now, h...

Thank you — Yes, I guess it is how I speak. I've been conscious of it lately & I'm trying to forget about it, because if I don't pay attention, it's easier to flow onto the next thing and keep talking...

Good. Now you made her aware of your stuttering and you don't need to hide it anymore...
