But doesn't that actually help to get the conversation flowing again, which is good, no matter who said that particular word... I think?...

Yes. It being "cute" is very demoralizing. ...

It's not cute! Or a fetish!

It's not cute! Or a fetish! Does anyone else get really p!ssed off when others tell them that their stutter is cute? It really upsets me. I don't find it cute, it's terribly socially isolating and m...

Just ask him. Maybe he doesn't t talk that easy about it. But if a best friend ask about it, why not! Maybe he likes it that you help him, maybe not. ...

I personally hate it when somebody finishes my sentences but bizarrely when they do the block goes and the word pops out pretty much instantaneously....

The best thing you can do is to ask him how he wants you to handle his stuttering. Some people don't mind it when you finish sentences, while others loathe it. ...

I don't stutter (anymore; used to when I was a kid), but my closest friend speaks with a lot of blocks. Can I do anything that makes him more comfortable?

Ugh, sorry, I was really hoping I just read what you said originally wrong. :( The only "idea" I have I borrowing from one of my favorite professors. Consider looking at old research papers as they o...

My professor just "shot down" my idea of raising awareness. I have to look into other solutions. ...

If I use filler words, I feel guilty. I try to avoid as much as possible. But they find their way into conversations sometimes. Frustrating. Years of habit. Hard to break....

I don't know exactly what the professor said to you. Did they "shoot down" your paper in general, or the general topic of raising public awareness? It may be worth it to seek a further detailed resp...

Unfortunately, I too invoke those sentence polluting words when I speak. When I was young I found it to be a very large issue, but now I do not use those words too often....

Just a quick point, you might want to take out the footer with your real name for anonymity reasons. And my own personal tip, don't use "super" in a research paper. I dont really know what the ins...

In general, I don't see a unified purpose in your paper. Your ideas are a bit scattered and some cohesion would be helpful. One thing that might improve this is developing in your mind what the centra...

I've run out of ideas for my research paper..

I've run out of ideas for my research paper.. Hello guys, I'm writing a research paper in which I talk about stuttering. The whole paper is good, however, the solution I proposed wasn't well accepte...

I've used all sorts of them! It was um for a long time and it springs up every now and then. These are filler words like you said and are also caused helping sounds. The latter so, because we feel the...

Yeah, okay. You're right. ...

it's one of the most common avoidance behavior (and to be honest, a lot of non-stutterers use it too). It's a poor habit and doesn't help you overcome your stuttering. I used to do it but I stopped. H...

In hindsight, she was probably as uncomfortable, if not more so, than me. I can hardly blame her....

I use "um" before I have to pronounce an "eh" sound for the beginning of a word and I know I'm going to get stuck on it...
