Finally got to know about a group researching stutter and trying to use tech to treat our stutter. First of all, Thank you for your efforts. I have gone through your post, your study, and Dr Satrajit's profile on MIT. I am a PWS, 33M. But not a resident of the USA. Hence, I am barred from participating in Sensei research. I have headphones and an iPhone and I don't want $70; Please let me use Mumble Melody app (it's also not available outside the USA). All these years, I have been stuttering; Missed many many opportunities that came by me. Career wise, Health wise, and relationship wise. I had to let go off them all - all because of silly stutter. I had used Stamurai app for like 8 months or so - daily. No improvements. Use techniques like prolongation, easy onsets, voluntary stuttering, guided meditations, and what not. Even saw an SLP for 6 months - it also didn't work. Read a book by Lee Lovett, found out it straight scam for PWS. Read aloud books for 3 years (still doing that), but no improvement. \---- But I used DAF app on my phone. And when I read the paras, I didn't stutter - not even a bit. But can't use that app in my day to day conversations... \---- Everytime I used a new technique, I was hopeful and then after months of trying out, hopes shattered. How can I stay connected to a group which actively researches stutter treatments?
