Just wanted to share how I overcame most of my stutter Okay I literally just found out about this subreddit and was like why not share how I overcame most of my stutter, I don't know if anybody is going to read this but still. Okay so since I don't want to exaggerate anything I'll first start with the fact that my stutter was not as strong as some peoples stutters, I know that some people cant at all formulate sentences but that wasn't my case, however, I still had moderate issues with stuttering and getting my words out in the first place. This issue caused me to feel under alot of pressure mostly in school when I had a question to ask the teacher, I would raise my hand to ask a question and I would want to ask it but the words wouldn't come out and I would panic because everybody was waiting for me and then I would stutter. This went on for years until I reached my final 2 years of high school in which I decided to stop caring and take it at my own pace. I started raising my hand in class, teacher would ask me what question I had and then I would wait for 2 to 3 seconds (doesn't seem like alot but in the moment its literal silence for a few seconds) and then I would ask the question. The process of me not caring about the fact that other people are waiting for me to say anything tremendously helped my stutter. I of coursed applied this to all other parts of my life. I took my time to say anything and I wouldn't care. I know its not the same for everyone and for alot of people its alot more complex than that but I still wanted to share this as the root cause of your stuttering might be anxiety or being in too much of a hurry. By the way I still do stutter and I still accidently twist my words but its alot alot less compared to before.
