This helps a lot! I don't remember a lot about that time of my life so it seemed like a deep, dark secret but you've helped me make sense of the pieces. What you describe for Van Riper's Track III stuttering seems to fit well. My parents told me that after that event, I could barely get a word out. That sounds like lots of blocking to me. I don't know what accessory behaviors are though. Are they like secondaries? I don't have very many secondaries but I was able to hide my stuttering well enough by age 10 that no one knew I still stuttered. If avoidance behaviors count then mine certainly are elaborate. Thanks!
