Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, it's just one of those days that have me down. I had to give a presentation in Spanish 1101. I stutter enough in English, don't even get me started on a second language ...

Do you think you're a shy person? If you didnt stutter do you think you would be shy? There's your answer. There are tons of fluent shy people out there and they dont have developmental stuttering. ...

I was shy because I stuttered. It wasn't until it started to creep up like crazy. It was back then when I was afraid to speak....

Not everybody with OCD has an obsession with speaking fluently, and perhaps, if you have the time, you should look into the the connection between stuttering-anxiety-OCD - maybe there is one. ...

As someone in a clinical psychology graduate program, I doubt there's a connection. Both conditions are diagnoses in the DSM but one is an anxiety disorder (OCD) and stuttering is not, although stutte...

Lifting or just exercising in general. Until someone asks me a random question (how many sets you got left? Or just a simple good morning or how are you doing?) and then I'm like fuck so much for that...

You're right, but how did you get past the fearful mindset? The fear of stuttering is so much worse than stuttering itself, but im really struggling to get past the 'fear' mindset. When I feel confid...

You can't live like this. You can't thrive with such a fearful mindset. Aren't you just over it by now? We're the same age, and I've done my share of presentations and I've fought against this mindset...

Is it the same with alcohol? My speech is way more fluent when I'm drinking but that probably has to do with the liquid confidence part of it. Does it matter the strain or potency of the weed? I get p...

Getting stoned. No lie. I find I'm able to formate sentences better, and am not as rushed, and have less anxiety...

Presentation tomorrow for job interview, nerves make it worse!

Presentation tomorrow for job interview, nerves make it worse! Hi everyone, 24 year old long-time stammerer here, have to say i love this sub, so supportive. Moving on, I am an occasional stuttere...

Well I do hope it doesn't become a pattern. Maybe it won't since we're aware of it, unlike avoiding eye contact or something. Best of luck!...

I'm a 30 year old female. My stuttering ranges from forming a complete fluent sentence to total blocks on the next. It's random for me day to day. I've often thought I would be a happier person if I d...

If we were to wake up one day and completely forget we had a stutter, would we still stutter (as badly)?

If we were to wake up one day and completely forget we had a stutter, would we still stutter (as badly)? The less focused I am on my stutter, the less severe it is. Example: when I get engrossed in a...

I am a 21 year old male who has stuttered for as long as I can remember. My stutter is generally moderate, but swings occasionally to both ends of the spectrum. I've had a lot of time to think about m...

Wow, I feel almost the exact same. I've always wondered if my impediment could be overcome or if I have to work with it, which basically means stuttering all of the time and being okay with that. Just...

Yeah pressure conversations where I'm supposed to respond in a specific way (like when answering a cellphone telephone) can be problematic, or like in your situation when you're expected to answer in ...

I have the same issue as you, severe anxiety. I'm currently on medication for it at the moment and I'm seeing if it helps. If you want someone to talk to about it, feel free to add me on skype. Thr...
