Of course, there's always a baseline stuttering level that I (and we all) have, even with low anxiety. I think it's important to know the link between anxiety and stuttering. As a teenager, I was not aware of my high anxiety, and there are definitely times where if I tried to reduce my anxiety, I could have helped my stuttering and increased my overall well-being. I'm not saying lowering your anxiety will fix you, but managing anxiety is a vital skill to help you in keeping control of your stutter.
