I deal with blocks in the long term by not relying on anticipation, thoughts, feelings, sensations and stutter beliefs/attitudes to initiate speech movements. Generally all movement actions (such as w...

Excellent explanations. Desire is a bad thing when it consumes us. Dissolving my "Stuttering conditioning" and reconditioning myself to be a powerful verbal communicator while letting go of my wise ne...

Does my [strategy](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/1466orq/my_strategy_to_improve_stuttering_with_the_goal/) have any effect on your stuttering? 1. don't rely on anticipation, thoughts, fee...

For me it was: 1. Acceptance of my stutter 2. Embracing my stutter and not trying to hide it. 3. Becoming more self-confident 4. Working out/Gym 5. Getting at least 8 hours of sleep 6. Talking on di...

Great comment! In reply to your message, this is my attempt to create simple instructions to apply to speech. **Simple instructions:** 1. Self-confirm that avoiding your desire or urge to immediatel...

I already regret posting this post cos of people like you. Yes, don't concentrate. What other choice do you have? When you truly ingrain a belief 'there is nothing wrong with me and never was' you wo...

I used to disclose bc it took pressure off of me. Also, if I got stuck, I already told the person that I stutter so they are not surprised. Otherwise, you're leaving it up to the listener to figure ou...

This was the redpill for me. Stutter unapologetically. It removes most of the bad things about having a stutter. The kicker is that you need people around you who make you feel safe enough to be able ...

Might be a pep talk again but my experience has been that you can only move ahead as a stutterer if you do something with it. For me, being ashamed and masking it made me angry just like you. I had de...

The only one holding you back is your mentality. I've done very well for myself and I stutter pretty badly. You can treat it like a disability and let it get the best of you, or you can treat it like ...

I think you shouldn’t tell them ahead of time. Because they might feel like you are presenting it to them as a problem. It’s better to announce it in the interview as a side-note, after you’ve stutt...

I have the exact same experience. I suspect it's because I'm on 100 around strangers, constantly micromanaging my breathing and posture and using every trick I know to appear as fluent as possible. Bu...

I always try and turn it around and tell myself "I don't care if I stutter, everyone stutters a little here and there, im just a bit more so and there's nothing wrong with that" but it doesn't help th...

Not much to inform when my stutter is so apparent that I can't really hide it anymore like I used to, so no point in trying to hide it....

This is a deeply personal choice. Speak with no stuttering and sound slow and robotic, or stutter and keep your natural voice. No matter what you choose, your speech pattern may be divergent. Eith...

Great advice. Denial never works and increases your stuttering. Start out acknowledging your stuttering. It reduces your anxiety and re-aligns the expectations of the listener. Sue...

Everyone reacts differently to self-disclosure. It's supposed to lower your anxiety and set the expectations of the listeners. If it makes it worse for you, don't do it. Find another way to deal with ...

I find letting people know I stutter gives them an explanation right off the bat, and takes a weight off me. So I end up feeling more comfortable...

Great article, findings make sense. So in other words if we could always "trick" our brains that we are alone and that no one is listening to us speak then maybe we will never stutter again....

When I was younger, I would do anything I could to keep my stuttering a secret, or divert attention away from it. I would gladly take on any other labels or perceptions about myself; slow, stupid, q...
