What a great idea. I lucked-out and married a wonderful man who fully accepted me and was never embarrassed to introduce me to his career officer friends. I stuttered from early childhood, but throug...

Thank you so much for your response. I’m sorry those things happened to you. Your approach to recovery sounds very similar to the Drop-down through technique, and Timeline Therapy. I suggest you sea...

Thanks for asking. I began stuttering at about age 4-5. I remember being the “apple of my parents’ eye” before that. I felt adored. At about age 4, my eye muscle turned in and with the stutter, I was ...

Hey very encouraging story. If you’re willing to share, can you please list a few underlying beliefs that you corrected during therapy, and how that influenced the way you feel in social situations? ...

The more experience you get with conversation the better. One of the other posters in the forum posted about his breathing when he begins to speak. He said when he stuttered in the past realized he wa...

I think you've got it! Dr. Martin Schwartz from New York gave three-day courses that dealt with breath control and stuttering. I attended one of his courses but wasn't motivated enough to follow throu...

I went to a counselor/therapist while I was in university. I realized a lot of my stuttering issues (really bad days) stemmed from a lot of mental health issues I was dealing with. When you start to u...

Oh, gee! I'm sorry I missed your message yesterday. You asked about my strategy. I don't have one. I sought psychotherapy for an unrelated issue, anxiety, and depression. In the course of therapy, my ...

Visual Deer I'm so encouraged that you are seeking help to uncover whether your early trauma might have triggered your stammer. Early childhood trauma and the trauma of ostracism and marginalization o...
