Hiding from the stuttering is probably not a very healthy way to handle the stuttering. My covertness actually leads to more emotional termoil. The fear of being found out is huge. It is like being caught in a lie. The anxiety, shame and guilt are very hard to live with. It is probably more healthy to come clean with the stuttering and do it openly. It is probably healthier to try to accept it, rather than hide it. I am actually trying to stutter more now. I am finding it to relieve internal strife. Thanks, Barb
