I’m not even at this point yet (only with strangers and friends i can do this with not family) but i just stutter freely and let it come out. This process does take awhile to desensitize yourself to your stutter, but you can think about it like this. Fluent speakers take up unnecessary space without stuttering, and i’ve had awkward interactions with them too. Having a stutter is apart of who you are, but it doesn’t define you. You gotta start taking these anxious interactions with a grain of salt.
