OK Alan, it is clear to me now. In your story, published in John's book I just misinterpreted what I read, because not all details were given. On the other hand, being in control of our own life, we can develop the necessary energies in order to "get into a more fluent hexagon". In my own experience, for long years all my energies were occupied just to survive in my job and in my family, having problems in both. I had done work on myself and I did not avoid public speaking, but as you say it, doing it as second or the third best... The everyday stress did not allow me to be in control of my life and my speaking, too, like in a vicous circle. When I overcame a major part of the my problems I was more in control of my everyday life and I had more free valencies to work in finding a behaviour and beliefs, etc., more in line with a fluent hexagon. I have read a book a German book on stuttering therapy done on young stutterers, which support my hypothesis, that solving of life problems by itself very often leads to fluency. Only these people do not appear in the self help pws movement to tell their stories. kind regards, Stefan
