Voluntary Stuttering? So, I have a hard block stutter with elongations and bad secondary behaviors like facial contortions. I think in reality the block type stutter is more so a developed behavior from not wanting to stutter in front of people but I think stuttering is actually the lesser evil as in reality long awkward pauses paired with facial contortions is quite an unpleasant sight. So recently what I have been trying to do is just train my brain to keep talking with repetitions (stuttering) if need be. I feel its very liberating to focus on what I want to say instead of how I perfectly I say it.
