Good Morning,
I don’t know how many people are even reading this blog since I only began it 2 days ago, but I’m wondering-
How many of you who stutter notice that your stutter is minimal (or your speech is more fluent) when you’re very busy in life? I know with me, when I have a ton going on between school, work, and just simply life, my stutter is almost non existant. When I get bored with things however, and I don’t have much to do during my day etc, my stutter gets a lot worse.
I’m sort of thinking this may be due to having more time to worry about how you sound since there is less on your mind. So maybe a big part of it is to only think about what you’re trying to say and not even give your mind the chance to bring in those “What if’s” and those fears related to how you may sound when you open your mouth.
I’d love to hear some feedback on this thought.
I’d also like to recommend a book written by Linda Rounds. You can purchase it online as an E-Book. It has been very helpful to me in overcoming my stuttering. http://www.desperatestutterer.com/
That’s all for now folks (haha who do I sound like?? Hint: He stutters too!)
Have an amazing day,
Jen
