To me, I find that I speed up my speech because I already don't take full breaths. Obviously stuttering is because of the brain not knowing how to breathe right for speech. Short breaths = stuttered/s...

With my experience, stuttering or stammering is a result of improper breathing. So I think if one were to be shocked, the rush of energy would shorter or alter ones breath even more and it would ma...

How severe is your stutter actually?

How severe is your stutter actually? Personally, I consider myself fluent but that is my self image. Although I'm about 95% fluent I still stutter and when I do stutter it's around 2 on a scale of ...
