Is It Normal to Stutter Like This? Hi everyone, I’ve always wondered about my stutter. I stutter in almost every situation — whether I’m talking to myself, speaking with family or friends, with someone I’m comfortable around, or even when I’m completely calm, nervous, or scared. Interestingly, there are a few situations where my stutter disappears completely: when I speak in a very soft low voice, when I raise my voice loudly, when I yawn, or when I’m extremely angry. Given this pattern, I’m curious if this is just a neurological thing. Has anyone experienced something similar or have insights into why stuttering might behave this way? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
