MOTIVATION! You can. Really

MOTIVATION! You can. Really I typed this up as a comment for somebody’s post. Thought I would make it, it’s own post. When I was in the fire academy, the instructor that was supposed to teach that da...

Great post thanks man! I think this video really helps show how to stutter with confidence! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UA4ZhaZ-zV8...

I had a very severe stutter, now my stuttering is much more situational. In terms of technique, when I was very severe I think it does help to work on breathing from the diaphragm and speaking at th...

2 very common ways to "work on your speech" that never helped me.

2 very common ways to "work on your speech" that never helped me. Having been a severe on and off stutterer, you better believe I tried everything in the book to gain fluency. I'm going to breakdown...

I would really recommend the Dave McGuire Program. They have a self help book on Amazon that you can download for just about 10 dollars. It’s called “Beyond Stammering: The Sport of getting good at Sp...

Some advice would be to intentionally stutter on one or a few of the words before your feared words (“dollar” or “delivery”). This will ease your brain because if you stutter on purpose, it tells your...

Try purposefully stuttering on the words you block on, for example if you block on a B, when you go to say the word purposefully stutter for example "ball" would be "b b b b b b ball" or if its a G so...

Hey, a bit late, but I did the McGuire programme about 6 years ago. I worked super hard for the first 2 years of it, putting in a ton of work. The support system they have in place with the ability to...

100% Feel free to check out some of my stuff as so much progress in my journey has been by desensitizing myself to fear/judgements from others. And also feel free to reach out if you would like som...

That's a really good question. First of all you need to be confident in what you want to say and feel safe to express yourself. It does take a lot of practice and you will get burned but the more you ...

Nice. I found drive throughs to be a nice intermediate between voluntary stuttering on a simple phone call (ordering a pizza or whatever) and in person (in line at a coffee shop). You don’t have to ...

This is hella inspiring! I stuttered the other day getting my order and the man told me not to be scared but really, it just happens even if I’m not scared. It does feel liberating when starting to le...

During presentations, I have voluntary stuttered on the first word or sentence and I feel it helps shakes the nerves and keeps me in control. Kinda like stuttering on your own terms. I will admit it...

I saw a severe stutterer at a shop yesterday. He was was stuttering super bad but was having a lengthy conversation with the cashier and everyone could hear him but he didn't give a fuck. I admire tha...

I haven't watched this whole video, but I feel that this may be very relevant for people who struggle with this. This guy who stutters challenged himself to go on 100 dates to face that fear, because ...

I personally like the route of becoming comfortable with high stress situations. Like the navy seals. More navy seals die in training than they do in combat. They train so hard that nothing in the...

You are talking about voluntary stuttering which was something that was developed by Charles Van Ripper (pioneer of speech therapy- look him up). It is a great strategy during interviews as it allows ...

Ok, you may hate this idea, but one thing you could do, outside of your job, is go somewhere and talk to strangers. Just, hello, how's your day going? Or whatever you would like. It sucks, and if you...

For me the only think that helped me is facing my fears. For instance, if you feel uncomfortable talking on phone then practice more often speaking on phone with your friend. Stuttering remains to be...
