But what if acceptance leads to a more relaxed mentality? Anxiety doesn’t cause stuttering of course but I think for most of us, it definitely plays a role in how bad it is. If you let go of that anxi...

This one is useful, thanks buddy. But it is difficult for me when I am near the girls, the adrenaline starts pumping and you know the rest. Anyway I'll try to see them as normal person and talk to the...
