They don't have the thoughts that you list because talking doesn't cause them anxiety and they don't have any issue producing speech, they are not fixated on speech. It's like asking what we think abo...

I agree! What else do non-stutterers think about their fluent speaking? \- "whatever others say about my speech, I know I can speak fluently" \- "I can speak fluently because I'm a normal person" ...

Just like drinking a glass of water: it's natural. One thing I've learned is that fluent speakers don't plan their words beforehand, they focus on the message - which is also a great method for stutte...

I agree but I have a small addition. You said: "it can be removed by replacing our stuttering experiences and traumas with the opposite - fluent speaking memories." So you need to see the cause and e...

This is exactly the kind of answer I wanted! It's very helpful, thank you. There's non-verbal and filler sounds written into the dialogue from a variety of background characters, but they're mostly ...

Stutters vary immensely person-by-person and there is a giant lack of research to create common phenotypes despite the commonality of it as a disorder. I don't think solely repetitions by themselves a...
