Average stutterer is not aware much about his cognitive processes – no more than any other person who does not study psychology or practice meditation or self exploration in some way. According some scientists stuttering is neurotic disorder and as such – it conceals its actual causes from the conscious mind of its bearer. Each neurosis works in that way. Of course, I do not say stuttering does not have neurological base as well… When stutterer goes to therapy e has huge resistances toward the therapy – unconscious, of course. Deeply within himself, on subliminal level, the stutterer protects his stuttering! It is strange, but this is the way each neurotic disorder works. In my opinion, one tremendous part of the stuttering therapy has to be lead by psychotherapist, parallel with the pure speech techniques. And, to answer better to your second question, the average stutterer is only fake external, but behind the formed by his speech patterns behaviors, he is usually internal!
