Me neither. I recently quit a job where I was not treated very well and that job was where my stutter actually first came about. Every time I spoke to the bosses I was stuttering like crazy. They made...

I'm an only child and have stuttered since age 4 when my chronic anxiety began. My dad stutters, and I THINK one of my cousins did as a kid (my dad's sister's daughter)....

I've been dipping in and out of the research for decades. Way back when, it appeared the scientific consensus that stuttering was purely psychological. Now over the years, I've watched that be replace...

I’m a full recovered 5 years ago. My stuttering was emotionally caused and treated by psychotherapy. I had an abusive childhood I'd never dealt with. Now I never give a second thought to speaking. It...

I'm not from the UK, but after having recovered from my stuttering at age 70, I came across this video about the McGuire method of stuttering therapy in the UK. It warmed my heart. If you don't win th...

Others have given good advice on how to deal with it emotionally, but you should probably talk to a doctor about this. I also have an acquired stutter and while the stuttering itself is nothing to wor...

I’m on the autistic spectrum and can say I definitely believe there is a connection to stuttering. We often have a difficult time with emotional processing, as well as being more sensitive. As wel...

Yes, that's his name. But I sent you the WRONG email address. It's really : geraldmaguiremd@gmail.com Let me know what you think. I'm a fully recovered stutterer. Mine was cured by psychotherapy deal...

>*I posted on here before about this, but this came at the tail end of a spout of alcoholism I was battling at the time. For years I thought this was the root cause* I agree with you, a traumatic ...

I'm a recovering alcoholic and only in AA did I straighten out some underlying issues I'd had, like growing up in a mad alcoholic home. It's possible, but I'm not sure, that starting to lose the fea...

Or maybe you didn't do anything bad, you just talked too much and your mouth constantly got you in trouble. So in this lifetime you are using it less :-)...

Yes, I do. Astrologers said there were also signs in my natal chart indicating limitations of expression. There were also clues as to what to focus on in life to remedy the bad karma. I do believe eac...

In my case, it was totally psychological. I recovered totally after dealing with my reaction to my abusive childhood. Sometimes it's physical, but in my case it was emotional. I think if it's emotiona...

In my case at least it seems like a PTSD response. When I was a little kid I used to have to rush my words because my family would never let me finish my sentence they would always talk over me, so I ...

>How much of your progress do you attribute to your psychological advice and mindset? In my opinion, the psychological triggers and reactions are not the issue, rather using these triggers/reactio...

For me, muscle tensing is a symptom and addressing it would not hit the source. In my case, blocking is caused by my brain’s subconscious defense to repeating/stuttering. Right when my brain senses a ...

Yep. It is a slow process to overcome and I still struggle with it. But I try to remember that the shame is not my friend, and it is not based on any true assumptions about myself. You need to develop...
