Getting over stuttering Throughout school, I had problems making social connections because I had developed a stutter, but speech therapy and techniques to reset my disfluent and tense muscle memory have allowed me to be able to speak much smoother. On top of that, I have way more confidence in myself, and life feels way more great. But this leads me to ask questions to other people that have a stutter, what are your techniques for working around it? What about people with genuine stuttering conditions, are you able to sort of just fix your speaking muscle memory like me, or do you have to deal with it no matter what?
