Content

This is experienced by almost all persons who stutter. The reason I think is because stuttering is a communication disorder not a speech disorder. You are not communicating with anyone when you talk to yourself or sing. A lot goes on in our brain when we communicate (Organize thoughts, Observe other person, Current emotion, Am I being judged, Should I use this word with him/her, Oh God I will stutter more with him).
