Presentation went good, I practiced a couple times right before just so I don’t have words to get ahead of and that I can know what I’m talking about. Back before I got into government industries I would smoke to help with any presentations or just to help with nerves before anything where I might have to talk. It helped but yeah medicines lead to dependencies which is a whole different side of these things. I’ve never really looks into breathing techniques, or just anything for that matter because I thought it was always just anxiety leading to my stutter. I’ll keep these things in mind though because there’s always the next one.
