Someone have tried "magic mushrooms" here?

Someone have tried "magic mushrooms" here? I'm considering trying only for the sake of getting rid of social anxiety I know it won't fix my speech problem but if it can help with anxiety it would be a...

I agree that's it a psychological problem but the I inherited it from one of my parents so there is also a physical problem to my understanding. Shame there isn't much research into stuttering....

i’m so over my stutter..

i’m so over my stutter.. i’ve been stuttering ever since i was born since it’s a genetic thing. my moms dad stutters, my mom stutters, i stutter, and my two siblings does. out of everyone, i have it t...

Stuttering as a disorder has nothing to do with anxiety or nerves. They can make it worse, but they aren’t the root cause. What the root cause is, we don’t know, but we know that there are strong gene...

Hey, I posted 2 years ago something similar. I had fully fluent speech for 1 week after a trip to amsterdam where I dabbled in shrooms. On the shroom trip I was beating myself up so much about stutter...

It being genetic doesn't mean you can't improve it. Temper your expectations though. It doesn't work for everyone and if it does it won't cure you probably. But even if it's just an improvement it's ...

Should I start Speech Therapy?

Should I start Speech Therapy? Hey, I'm 25 yo and I have a mild stutter ever since I could remember. I don't (or cannot) accept it because sometimes I am mostly fluent and no one even finds out I have...

By "cure", I mean it can't be completely treated. For example, even my father (48) sometimes stutters mildly (mine runs in the family)....

I developed a stutter after a breakup with a stuttering person at 16 and have been lived with it since. My father also stutters so I may have a genetic disposition, but I was perfectly fluent before t...

Yes, I do think speech anxiety is a big part of it, and fearing the perceptions and judgements of others. It has snowballed on me over the years (I’m in my late 30s now), and my stuttering has gotten ...

So, yeah. Forever, the same issue. I've often wondered if we share a related/similar genetic "whatever" to those little fainting goats. They are just fine until they get triggered....

I highly doubt it, my parents were amazing and I still stutter. There's been a lot of studies into stuttering and it's causes, nothing has been proven. It's just one of the those things really....

Don't think so. No one in my family stutters or have any kind of speech impediment. I am the first....

Genetic? **NO!** There appears to be genetic factors that can contribute to stuttering, but no one is born with a stutter. Speech is learned. It's a developmental process. Genetics can influence one...

I know my grandfather and father stuttered. They were able to pretty much overcome their stutter. While I, wasn't so lucky....

It's genetic most of the time. There are studies that found this. It usually isn't an acquired trait barring a head injury or something....

I came to comment something similar! I took a stuttering course in college and we also learned it was about 70% genetic and 30% environment. I’m a speech therapist and family history of stuttering is ...

I had no idea that stuttering has been traced to specific chromosomes. Research seems so rare that I never hear about it, but I’m glad there have been links made, thank you!...

There's actually been a fair bit (but I don't know if I'd say a "lot") of work done examining the link between stuttering and genetics. I won't go into \*all\* of the details, but we've found links on...
