Speaking differently doesnt equate changing your pitch or going the goofy way. Im a classical singer and when i stand on stage or need to speak to important people i shift into stagespeech, which mean...

I think introducing yourself is a big one for most people who stutter so you're definitely not alone there. Personally "thank you" is a big one for me. I have very good manners but every now and then ...

In my first class this semester the professor said to talk to someone you don't know and introduce them to the class. I got lucky and didn't stutter at all....

As I said: Use in critical situations, not "all day long". Ahhh, not a diagnosis. okay...

Why did you put 'roleplaying' in quotes? Oh, as in, not _dice_? We're talking about a person here who, presumably, would never _not_ be in character of some sort, when they were dealing with other pe...

An identity problem isn't often caused by "roleplaying" unless you already have a severe mental disorder....

We might also consider whether over time, something would go wrong in the identity department in general. Dunno......

I'll PM you some info....

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Theoretically you can keep changing voices, roles, languages, accents, etc...That would be somewhat exhausting, but beneficial in critical situations. Some form of acc...

I find that if I do a silly voice I rarely ever stutter but obviously you can't talk like Elmo or shaggy and scooby all the time irl....

I dread those "ice breakers" at the beginning of every school year because my name happens to be one of the hardest blocks I have every time I say it....

That's the most annoying thing for me. It's so seemingly easy for others to introduce themselves in class or other situations... But for me its not....

Jesus, you hit the spot right there. WHY in the living hell can I not say my name when someone asks me, or I need to introduce myself. I'm moving up into jobs that require I be able to introduce mysel...

They never said they cured themselves of stuttering. They still talk about how they stutter, even today. What you found was a distraction. We all have moments where we are sometimes totally fluent and...

Actually, I typically stutter much less around stutterers, just because I know they know what's wrong (and aren't worried that I'm, I dunno, having a stroke or something). Although I admit there is an...

Day-to-day stuttering annoyances

Day-to-day stuttering annoyances When non-stutterers imagine what stuttering must be like, they tend to "think big" - difficulties giving presentations, speeches, etc. But for me, the most frustratin...

Taking the easy way really only makes it harder in the future. I have been unemployed for these last two months. Mainly because I just feel too tired to look for a job. And every time I look through t...

That’s really cool of you to try to take an interest in something that doesn’t affect you directly. I can really imagine that the few times that you do post it adds a form of outside perspective. Whic...

Yeah, it definitely works, but only up to a point where your stutter catches up to your new way of speaking. Its kind of like using a DAF device to create a choir effect of your own while speaking- it...
