That's one piece (i.e. the stuttering event) but then your body also created a conditioned response over decades. Even if you have removed all active cognitive thought of negativity, the conditioned ...

Acting honestly! I memorized my entire speech and “watched” myself in 3rd person. I knew exactly why and what I was saying. Even the exact tone and hand motions I would do. I also talked louder slower...
