Hi Sophie, No need for the apology - we're just pleased to receive comments such as yours. Yes! - 'A problem shared is a problem halved'. If we keep things to ourselves, they can appear so much worse. You mention that there are still circumstances in which you experience difficulty talking openly about your stutter. You may care to read my earlier response to Breena in which I outlined my personal strategy to deal with this problem. A few years ago, I purposely began speaking to total strangers about my stuttering history. I am now completely desensitised and no longer have any hang-ups or embarrassment. Thank you, so much, for taking the time to contribute. Kindest regards Alan
