  1. Hi Liz and Aleah

    What a great question! 🙂 My biggest trigger is when people interrupt or fill in my words. That brings out the devil in me and I will make you understand how rude that is, by simply keep on talking, or immediately stop talking and give you the stink eye. 🙂 It’s my words, not yours.

    When people tell me to take a deep breath, to not be afraid, or tell me about that great therapy that cures me in a weekend, I just raise my shoulders and decide whether it’s worse replying or simply ignore. One person told me to try to leave out the first letter of every word, to not get stuck on the first letter. Right.
    *o * *on’t *tutter **is *ay, *ut *eople **ink *’m *tupid *instead?? 😉

    But the biggest trigger is when people (incl SLPs) want me to get rid of my stutter. That’s totally up to me.

    Stay safe and keep asking great questions
