I’m not going to sugar coat it for you, the interviews were tough. Easily the hardest hurdle to get over, but I find it helps to mention to them ASAP you stutter to avoid any awkward situations like “...

Finding the right therapist might be the hardest part of therapy but also probably the most important. I've been through countless therapists and therapies in my life before I found one who understood...

I get what you’re saying but I’m not sure if that’s the case for me. I’ve been stuttering since the first grade and my stutter has always been like this. My teacher didn’t even think there was anythin...

I agree with @shallottmirror. Reach out and seek professional help. I was in your shoes, and I've had 20 yrs of speech therapy. There is no cure, but there are speech therapy programs to help man...

Believe me it doesn't work. They give you words to stay away from and dangerous sounds which makes the anxiety bigger and stutter more. If I haven't gone to speech therapy I'd definitely stutter less ...

You don't have an untraditional stutter, you have a more severe one with a greater fear of showing stuttering which results in very strong blocks. The main difference between you and a "traditional" s...

Genuinely, we hold ourselves back a lot which I understand why it's hard and social situations are hard. Don't get me wrong I still get anxious and everything else. One of biggest tips is get help a...

I had to get good therapy. I wasn't able to work on my shame or my struggle behavior on my own. If you're still in high school, I recommend you attend events by CampSAY and FRIENDSWhoStutter. It's the...

I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting the help you need from your speech therapist. It can be frustrating when the professional you're working with doesn't seem to understand your unique situation...

Most speech therapists have no training in stuttering. You’ll get more help from the receptionist. Your fluency in the session is very common and indicates why you stutter/block (trying to hide it I...

Seriously, I saw a speech therapist for a little while and she said I was making great progress, I almost wouldn’t stutter at all talking to her but my stutter outside of therapy was still really bad....

Exactly! But still happy i tried it and will see if the next sessions will be better, but not gonna lie, i am kind of disappointed, i expected a speech therapist to know about this and not try to tell...

Talk to your parent/guardian about finding a speech-language pathologist that knows how to competently treat stuttering....

At no point did I say it was the fault of the client, so I'm not sure if what the downvote is for. My therapist helped me from not being able to string two words together to being able to actually sp...

If your therapist didn’t help you *at all*, why do you think her information is accurate? Your stutter is mostly blocking and it’s mostly covert. The blocks happen bc you don’t want ppl to hear you ...

How old were you? I went as a kid but when I went as an adult, I think I'd just turned 21, it helped a great deal. If it didn't help you, then I guess it's not for everyone....

For some group therapy is more effective. You’ll hopefully get a sense of solidarity with the other stutterers and get some good tips right from the horses mouth. Maybe being with other people in your...

I haven’t had a speech therapist since I was in high school I’m 26 now. It’s never gonna be comfortable talking in front of new people I definitely understand. Maybe give it another shot?...

If you can afford it, get speech therapy. I've said it ad nauseum on this subreddit, but as an adult it helped immensely. I still have it but it's never as bad as it was when I was a child and your ag...

Yea my therapist that i had before gave me one if this and she didn’t knew for what is this thing and all speech therapist that give u these things they don’t know nothing about the really speech dico...
