Exposure therapy mostly (never avoiding talking even when I have the option to) once I start avoiding things like ordering food or talking on the phone and stuff like that they become worse for me. I...

Stuttering as a form of negative autosuggestion/self hypnosis

Stuttering as a form of negative autosuggestion/self hypnosis So, over quite a long time I have formed this theory about how my stutter works. I say 'my stutter' because I think it's entirely possible...

You are very right. I think there is so much shame, embarrassment, fear, guilt, anger, denial, and hopelessness built up from childhood when you stutter that you don't want to stutter, even though in ...

This. It’s all about desensitizing yourself to the situation. Eventually you get used to it so your anxiety levels aren’t as high. Works for some people especially those with mild-moderate stutters....

It is hard I know, It is frustrating I know. Sometimes it feels unbearable, but... It will not disappear in one day, maybe it will not disappear in one year.. but that is the real problem our wanting ...

Eeeeeeeee (softly, gently prolonging my first syllable) as I ease into what I want to s-s-say (fake stutter, so I can stop trying to NOT stutter). It’s all a lie. Stuttering really does NOT preven...

Also try speech therapy with someone who mostly treats stutterers. Things that helped me were releasing a small amount of breath first, prolonging the first syllable, and doing a little fa...

I completely empathise with you. I developed stammering at the age of 15. Two years back I seeked out professional help. But I did not learn the mechanics of improving my speech. Rather, I was asked t...

I've been talking to myself in the mirror for years. I practice my name, greetings and everyday words that I have difficulty with. I can truly say that talking in the mirror has helped me with my st...

Another technique is to not say the words you block very hard, say it very lightly if that makes sense, it’s called easy onset. Also for me the technique that works is my taking my finger and walking ...

My speech therapist long ago suggested two strategies that were helpful for me. She suggested that I might have an easier start to a word by prrrrrol-longing the first syllable. I did find th...

I can't say I'm no longer struggling with the negative effects of my stutter but I guess I've made pretty good progress in the self-acceptance department these last few years. Here are a few things th...

I joined this group when my brother (who stutters) used my phone to look at this a while back but I didn’t leave the group. I just want to give a point of view of someone who doesn’t stutter at how cr...
