Hey thanks for the reply! I have been really having a rough time these days because everything I try to get involved in requires a lot of talking. I just tend to break down whenever I open up about my stuttering because I have held it for so long. Taking the time to stop what I'm saying whenever I get a block and breath has been hard for me really. I think I'm just not used to taking a full psychological and physical stop when I get a stutter block. I will get myself used to pausing and breathing like you said.
