When I am playing a "role" I do not stutter and I talk extremly clear Hi, I want to share with you this strange thing that I have noticed of myself. Basically, I have been stuttering since I was 6/7 and every year it would get worse. When I started High School it basically went away but months ago it started again. Not as bad as in the past but still enough to make me angry/ashamed of myself. One time, I was playing with my sister. I was making fun of those sellers that come to you and try to convince you to buy something, saying some random shit to sound professional. I talked extremly clear and without stuttering a single time. So this remembered me of when in Elementary School we were doing a school play and I had to say some lines. I was extremly anxious, because in the rehearsals I stuttered a lot, but then when I was in the theater in front of the audience, I didn't stutter and talked clearly, with the teachers even complimenting to me. Does anyone has the same thing as me? And if yes, did you find a way to talk like that even when you are just having a conversation? Thank you for reading all of this.
