I'm really happy this came up. --- I did the programme 6 months ago, so I'm fairly new off the course. As the other comment has said, it takes a HUGE amount of effort, but has improved my life great...

Well coming here, posting, owning up to the embarrassment is a first step and it's a big first step, so feel good about that. I've known a lot of people who stutter, lots of covert stutterers and this...

My fluency gets way better during the summer. I know what you mean and what you've felt. What I also haven't realized is that I'm actually under constant anxiety and stress, because during those three...

Ordering mild sauce at Taco Bell....I end up with a lot of fire sauce instead....

Yeah for me its at places where other people can hear me.... Like a cafeteria, restaurant. And just around people I don't know. At my university's gym I don't stutter there, most of the time I'm on...

Anywhere it's frowned upon to use profanity. Years ago I fell into a terrible habit of throwing an obscenity into a sentence instead of a dozen umms leading up to the word I'm going to stutter on. Say...

I'm an engineer but worked an IT job as an internship. Did phone calls, customer service, support for engineers, etc... It's not that bad. The greatest obstacle is fear and not enough confidence. Gett...
