That would be a great use. I had to call Amazon the other day and literally couldn't get through my email address and order number to confirm my identity. It's the first time in a long time that I lit...

I actually did that when I started, it worked for the past two years but for some reason it has stopped working for me. I usually said "yourder" which worked, but now I still pause between "you" and "...

they taught you that? I hope this was a while ago because that is teaching avoidance tricks and those usually are short lived and get ingrained as a avoidance habit....

Oh man, I feel you. I use the classic turn a word into a phrase trick (ie. Hitchhike = walking on the side of the road and asking people to pick me up) or if I can't even get that out "what's that wor...

Short of being able to replace words, saying “horder”, as previously suggested, is what I learned in therapy also. You might also try joining “your” and “order” together — no one would notice if you...

Yeah I think this is it tbh. In groups you can barely get in a word and the pace of conversation is just too damn high. By the time I try and say something on the spot I'm already blocking....

Mine's a bit of a mix really. I don't stutter at all in job interviews and the doctor's but I'm an absolute mess on phone calls at work. Loads of pauses and what I'm trying to say just comes out like ...

Dude(lady?), are you me?! It’s like the more comfortable I get with a person, the worse it gets. It makes speech therapy pretty difficult to do because I hardly stutter in the sessions. ...

I'm mostly the same way. I do still stutter to my doctor but not as much. ...

I am shaky on the "or", I am the same with most words that include "or". My boss is very toxic, he constantly belittles me for my stuttering \(makes passive aggressive jokes towards it, tries to finis...

Could you use subtitutes when phrasing the term? Or is your store policy very strict when it comes to how you greet customers? For example, if the syllable you're struggling with is "or", or even "der...

I'm 100% on your boat. I can't explain it myself, maybe it's the speed and tone I talk at that causes me to become fluent. On the other hand, I stutter the most when I tell stories to my friends. I ha...

How to overcome saying the word "order"?

How to overcome saying the word "order"? I work at a fast food chain, I am perfectly fine talking face to face with customers, but when its through the microphone for drive through \- I stutter. I onl...

Does anyone else not stutter in formal situations?

Does anyone else not stutter in formal situations? I don't stutter in job interviews, doctors appointments, debates or formal presentations. Anything non casual, if I really focus I don't stutter. I h...

These are my strategies. 1. Use a "filler" word and link the word with the blocking sound to the fillers last sound \- like they were one word 2. Replace the word with a different one \- stutterers m...

I agree but when that happens I try to assume it's coming from a good place. They're just trying to help because they see me struggling. ...

Asking if it's okay would be nice instead of just doing it, though I would always tell them that it's not okay with me. But don't interrupt someone to ask that question. Wait until she's done whatever...

I know this may sound weird, but are there any subtle "hints" or something along those lines that you'd give to someone that you want to just finish your sentence vs. "I'm getting tired of this, just ...

From my experience: if they’ve taken over a minute to get it out, which is rare but can happen, it’s fine to correct them, other than that - don’t. ...

I'm with you there especially when they try and guess what you're trying to say and then you have to correct them and cause more problems for yourself! Reminds me of the scene in South Park where Jim...
