I don't think people realise that "stuttering" comes in many forms and the nature of it varies. Sometimes it's a physiological imbalance that causes it, sometimes it's a cognitive issue (like in my case, i suppose. i don't really know much about the field but i think non-diapghramatic breathing fits under a cognitive issue status), sometimes it's neurological (although rarely. a thing i see in this sub is people assuming it's neurological. first of all, if it is neurological there has be another 'obvious' neurological problem or problems, it's rare that a person has a neurologic dysfunction of any sort and the only "visible" sign of it is stutter. i've talked to multiple people who actually suffer from a neurological dysfunction and their stuttering is wayyy different. and most of them have 'other' obvious signs of some sort of neurologic problem, again. so assume it isn't neurological. another defining thing of a speech impediment that is neurologic is it's nature, and if it has been consistent. if you've stuttered from age 3 or as long as people can remember it, and there haven't been times in your life where the stutter has been "better" or "worse" (stuttered more and less) , and if there **aren't** sentences or sounds you don't stutter at all on them or stutter less (or if it has a pattern basically) only THEN you can even consider the possability it's neurological. and if it is N, then "just smoke weed dude" isn't too much of a meme idiotic answear, too). i think it's pretty weird how some assume it's the same for all, i mean yes, of course some methods that help some stuttering won't help you. as for me, i basically know it's the cause. i quite litteraly don't stutter if i really focus on actual proper breathing. i haven't implemented it fully into talking, but lately i've improved my breathing overall when talking, so i stutter a little less! (although may be connected to being alot more calm lately and having much lower cortisol levels because of stuff i implemented into my life) i'm really looking forward to having a convo while implementing it! although it's hard, because ya really do have to focus on it, and when you add my sometimes poor social skills and convo skills i wouldn't be so smooth the first few times :c although could get better. and it's impossible to implement it under any sort of stress, so there's that too. sorry for any typos, english isn't my mother lanugage and thank you for your words man, i really appreciate it. if people would like to i can update about my progress with it, seems like a possible topic of intrest although idk so ye
