Same. I jump in there fast and introduce myself first. Hi my name is Starts with a vowel. Once I get that Hi out I can usually coast through the whole thing. Now if they say “I’m sorry I didn’t catc...

I remember as a kid some old people asked what my name was and I said that I didn’t know, because the first letter of my name is one of the hardest letters for me to start a word on. So I preferred be...

Uhhhh me too. My name begins with a hard c. Think colic. But not that. The worst is when it comes out cuh-cuh-cuh-rest of name. Or I take a breath and pause first. The number of ppl who say to me “wha...

Does anyone know how to increase the delay before Google Assistant/Home responds? Sometimes I block for a bit when saying a command and before I get my sentence out fully, Google home responds and it'...

Same thing happens to me. I'm fluent when I stop thinking about my speech. But the issue here is that its actually hard not to think about it...I've yet to fully gasp that technique......

I do the same thing. Whenever I'm alone i talk to myself and I start telling stories or giving opinions about something that happened to me that day like there's someone else in the room with me and i...

I'm glad that has made you feel better. It really frustrates me that I can speak fine with no one around. If I could just harness that calmness I'd be fine all the time ...

I'm so dumb I just realised this would be a sub. I'm 30. I have always stuttered. Reading this sub I can see my experiences are pretty much the same as everyone else but just thought I'd make a positi...

The best thing really is exposure therapy at least in my case, I just answer the call without thinking because if I think that increases my chance of stuttering. Luckily/unluckily I only really have b...
