Eye contact enemy #1
Eye contact enemy #1 It’s gotten so bad. I’m at such a low point I don’t know how to pull myself out of it. I can’t even look my girlfriend in the eyes when I talk. I hit a block and instantly close...
Congrats! You stutter, it is a part of you, you should come to terms with it and try not so hard to hide it. So what if people know? It isn't a big deal. "100 people watching, some were looking at m...
Great question! Recently i've been thinking about this a lot. I've noticed a lot of my anxiety is social related and mainly because of my stutter, not being able to come across the way I want to e...
If the idea is that the stutterer hears themselves speaking fluently, then almost all stutterers don't stutter when they are alone. I occasionally record myself speaking alone, I even sometimes put o...
I had a very similar situation at my work last year. I asked a question after my colleague gave a presentation and really struggled to get my words out. It was awful, as I had never disclosed my stamm...
I think that being self-conscious has positive effects and negative effects. I argue that too much self-consciousness (about your 'stutter triggers' for example) can lead to more anxiety. My argumen...
When I was on dating apps I had in my bio stuff “if you can’t deal with a stutter keep on keepin on” to deter those kinds of people that actually read bios...
What helped me not get so mad at people is convincing myself of the fact that they are confused. People do dumb things when they're confused. They have knee-jerk reactions, they conform with others if...
I don’t think that’s what OP is saying. I think OP wants confirmation bias. He thinks everyone else is the problem for perceiving his stutter as a lack of confidence....
Problem is we can't pretend to be another person in tough tensed situations & sad situations, stuttering will kick in...
I stutter more when im with close friends or partners! With new people/crowds i stutter less bc i choose my words carefully and avoid trigger letters/words. The comfort of not being judged makes me st...
Blocking is not a core disfluency behavior. It feels like it is but it's not. I have learned to not block but I still stutter. Nothing is locking your vocal folds other than you. You are doing it and ...
Definitely! But doing VR in front of a mirror, while making eye contact with yourself, is a great primary accessible intervention for those who have more struggles. If someone doesn’t require this...
Has Your Stutter Gone Away When You Pretended To Be Someone Else?
Has Your Stutter Gone Away When You Pretended To Be Someone Else? I've been a long time stutterer but there have been some phases in my life where it's completely gone away. Usually in those phases ...
For me it's kind of a conflict between my authentic self and what I think others expect of me. It's like self-expression fighting with psychological issues and this manifests through the neurological ...
It depends. I might stutter more as I get close someone because I'm less reserved so I speak more because I've let my guard down a bit and less concerned about showing my foibles. Then if I get even c...
Stuttering is factually part of your authentic self unless your stuttering comes from any trauma or any other psychological obstacle that is unrelated to your stuttering. Your fake self is hiding the ...
Not at all. I feel like the stutter gets in the way of me showing my authentic self. I have recently begun thinking that when I connect to my authentic self through yoga, gratitude, meditation and a...
Agreed. The biggest problem about my stutter is the fear of it. Fear is keeping me from being my true self. I think it’s less about the stutter itself and more about your perspective on it. If the fea...
