Hey man, Here's what I think about what youre suggesting: Triggers don't really make too much sense. I'll explain why. Yes you can stutter on certain words or letters, but sometimes you don't. At times you can be ordering a burger at mcdonalds and stutter like crazy, but sometimes words just flow out. Other times you can be in a group of people and words seem to just flow out and youre like woah that was cool, but other times it seems that you can't get a word out. Stuttering doesn't make sense if we reduce it to external triggers. Triggers are like a symptom of stuttering. Triggers doesn't take into account what's going on in the brain during a stutter moment, and that is where the money is.
