I do have one question--Are you currently in stuttering therapy? It was mentioned that you went to a speech therapist on referral from your psychiatrist. It amazes me how one can live with this overt stuttering and others may never know. Does this overt stuttering present a struggle in your life more/or less now than when you were young? How does it impact your teaching career--you had mentioned that lecturing and teaching is what you love and you are fluent in. I found your article very honest and insightful for others to understand the emotions and stuggles that go along with the overt stuttering.
