First, thank you all for these GREAT papers.

For months (after the advice of my SLP) I've resisted to advertise my stuttering. It was a VERY hard think to do. But once I've had done it, and discovered that only thing I can lose was anxiety & fear, I'm now doing it more often. For example, about a week ago I had a very important exam in front of my professor and fellow-students. Before I started answering the first question, I had said to her that I'll speak slowly because of my stuttering. Even in that extreme situation, my fear decreased. I was relaxed and speaking quite fluently (By the way, I passed the exam).

Thanks again and best regards from Belgrade (Serbia).
