Rethinking stuttering

Rethinking stuttering Hi, I'm relatively new to this subreddit and I've been reading your posts for sometime now. I would like to share my thoughts on feeling shame and guilt when stuttering, and real...

You don’t have control over how other people perceive you. But you do have control over how you feel/react to others. Seems like OP is salty about how others perceive him and needs to stop being a lit...

I read your post in the morning and i started applying it and within few hours i am getting a feel of my block’s being under my control. Thanks a lot, for pushing me this path, I believe i will gain a...

When you start thinking about the feared word its basically a self fulfilling prophecy like you said because you’re feeding yourself that negative thought. A way I went to counter this is give myself ...

Also want to share my comments here for timestamps to look out for where I clarify just a few things in the comments: At around 21:30 minutes in I mention how it might not work for the hardest times ...

Totally awesome! This is the way, 100%! I feel that one of the things we HAVE to do in order to one day reach a normal state of fluency, is learning how to transcend this fear to stutter, or fear...

Thank you for the thorough response; it seems as though this is pretty relative to my situation. If only there was a way to reframe the narrative or rewire my brain at age 25...

>(3) I made a promise to myself to never apply the terminology 'feared letter' or 'I anticipate blocks' in my mind. In other words, I made a self-rule that I may never analyze or discuss anything r...

Go for it! I’ll be sure to check yours out as well. And yeah, just remember you’re doing it for you and you love gaming / whatever you’ll be streaming. Whatever comes after, such as followers, is jus...

I'm just like you, my stutter is a complete rollercoaster, it changes all the time at work and sometimes I can't even speak to my gf at home when I'm overthinking it. All I'd really focus on mate is ...

You don’t need to make it your identity in order to accept it. Acceptance doesn’t have to mean you stop working on your stutter either. You’ve had a bad week, how were the other weeks since you’ve b...

This is my attempt to summarize your new YT video: Intro: * 13:42. When I speak to others who stutter, it makes me feel calmer. I'd ask myself: 'If I'd sound like this, what would I do myself?' (suc...

Complete and utter desensitization and destigmatizing of your stutter. Thinking about your stutter ‘primes’ (or warms up) the stuttering part of your brain, making you more likely to stutter. It’s a s...

I’ve just adopted the mentality of “fake it till you make it”. I’ve got way too much to deal with on top of my stuttering that I don’t even think about if some stranger I’ll probably never see again s...

There's a lot of truth to this, I think the best mentality to have is "I'll try again tomorrow and I believe it will work" and when we mess up we try again later tomorrow. It keeps you positive and ma...

Great phrase: "*have a mindset of moving on quickly*". In the book of life, those who turn the page swiftly find fresh chapters of opportunity....

Additionally: * **In my opinion**, PWS may not understand that fearing the desire of fluency could lead to more unsafety and more pain. For example, we may push away, run away from, suppress, despira...

Great post! Awesome that you made a new video! This is my attempt to extract tips from your YT video: **Intro:** * I stuttered since age 3 * I didn't know what affected my stuttering, or what happen...

We've all been there, i found the trick with mine was to not beat myself about what i had little to no control over..i had to stop the negative self sabotaging thoughts i was constantly subconsciously...

15M... That's a rough age. Maybe about as bad as it gets. You're not a child any longer. Not yet an adult. In addition to the social transitions going on, you have a ton of biology happening as well....
