> because they had to take care of themselves for the first time, they had to do all the talking etc, I feel like theirs was not anxiety-based because if it was then this would have made the stutter worse (if more depends on your words then that should mean more anxiety and thus more stuttering). Everybody's mileage can vary but I would just avoid these ideas of "I'll do X and it will fix my stutter", especially if it really is anxiety induced. People have all sorts of handicaps and disabilities and they still make it through life somehow.
