I don’t know if it will help, but I had a problem where I wouldn’t breathe when I talked. I was trying not to stutter by talking as fast as possible and that meant not breathing, but it didn’t work an...

I went to therapy, for like 4-5 years. The thing with my stutter was, it occurred from two conditions physical and psychich. After my parents got divorced it really kicked in and went from like 10% to...
