According to research *almost all people with a late onset stuttering* will fully outgrow or recover from stuttering within a couple of months or years. I argue that '*speech techniques*' will make you pay more attention to stuttering. Speech therapy doesn't aim for outgrowing stuttering, after all, speech therapy doesn't have a cure. **Conclusion**: It may be more effective to learn the art of '*not caring and not paying attention to stuttering*'. If this is hard, you could request help from a psychologist to learn to prioritize forward flow of speech over '*attention to stuttering and other disruptions*'. In my opinion, the more you prioritize '*attention to stuttering*', the more you will develop a stutter habit, see *table 2* in [this](https://drive.google.com/file/d/17_yNt_lh8CCWlvlySg-gaFjwW4N1aell/view?usp=sharing) worksheet. *Table 2 on page 3* depicts some examples of paying attention to stuttering, like **(1)** directly trying to operate the feedforward system or doing avoidance-behaviors, **(2)** reassurance-seeking like relying on techniques instead of having complete faith in the forward flow, **(3)** blaming emotions, anticipation or other disruption to stop moving respiratory or articulatory speech muscles, **(4)** excessively reinforcing overreliance on sensory feedback like locating movement of speech muscles, tracking fluency or outcome of speech or proprioceptive feedback, **(5)** or coping with stuttering like applying rituals to let the listener know that we are still trying to speak. I recommend to feel fear and speak anyway, to feel tension and speak anyway, to anticipate stuttering or anticipate negative listeners responses and speak anyway. In other words, no matter what disruptions you feel, think or sense, still prioritize the forward flow of speech, still keep up with the rhythm of forward flow and still instruct/decide to send command signals to move your speech mucles.
