As Stutterers we all pick up bad habits trying to speak. How have you conquered your bad habits? Hey everyone, first time poster in this Sub. I’ve had a stuttering issue since I was 4 (now 28). Although I’m doing really well nowadays, I keep on cycling through bad habits I’m a Music guy, so I used to tap my foot for rhythm for my speech. I’ve moved on from that but lately I squint my right eye when trying to push through a sentence. If it wasn’t for that no one would notice I have any issue. I have come a long way from struggling with my name to now speaking with multi billion dollar CEOs and talking over clearcom (Walkie talkie like). Strangers have mocked me in the past for the squint thinking it’s accidental, so I’d prefer to try and fix the problem rather than take out my rage on them. Any one do anything similar or how have you overcome a bad habit?
