Sry bout my attitude then, I can see that you're in a pretty dark place right now and I'm sure that most people on this sub can relate. It might hold you back in life, don't let it control it as well....

Proof that God doesn't exist ...

Of course not. I'm speaking for myself. If I could have chosen to not to be born I would take it. I admire stutterers who are positive about their speech and life in general. The people who carry on n...

If a new hurler came along and decided to kill all stutterers would you be on bored? Because by your logic we don't deserve to live or something....

I have to agree. It's another "You aren't trying hard enough" type of comment....

Informal therapy back in grade school. I guess you could say that I was a covert stutterer up until about a year ago. Now I fully stutter (even around my family which is a bit weird). I'm available ju...

Say, are you in speech therapy? And how do you compare to other stutterers? You can't generalize the phenomenon from you own case, you know....

This is much more reasonable, rather than simply saying "you stutter because you're lazy"....

Cool, another condescending diatribe. You seem more interested in elevating yourself above those who disagree with you then actually having a reasonable discussion. Seems a bit sad, but whatever get...

I do. Every single day. The thing is I started stuttering pretty late, like when I was about 14 years old. I remember being a "fluent" person. I remember being able to tell stories and jokes, speak on...

Thank you for the help. I'm currently in a viscous cycle..the more I think about my speech, the worse it is. The worse it is...the more I think about it. Thanks again!!...

Gold is the only way I can show appreciation for your words. I wish many other fellow stutterers had same attitude. Enjoy!...

First of all, before you speak, take an inhalation and speak while you exhale. I learnt this technique in speech therapy. Always think time is in your control, don't rush and push yourself to speak at...

There's nothing stopping you but yourself....

I'm the same way. One thing that helps me sometimes(I stress, sometimes) is I focus my breath. It's a technique I learned learning meditation and I find it can help to relax and kind of bring me back ...

I'd be a pilot....

Tension is my enemy - suggestions?

Tension is my enemy - suggestions? So, my stutter is that I hold my breath, mainly at the beginning of a statement. Once I get going, I'm fine. When I relax and not think about my speech, I'm good. ...

It's great that you derived some positives of having a stutter!...
