Thank you for commenting. It's short for speech language pathologist. Thank you for your comment. I find starting sentences one of the toughest things maybe because I'm planning 3 ways to say the one ...

I have a mild stutter. Of course is the fear of stuttering. That is the main though. I am trying to go further like why do I block in those situations in particular and I block less on different ones...

¿Do we fear autorithy?

¿Do we fear autorithy? Today I went to a shop to deliver some samples of my business. A nice lady attended me. Everything went good. Not completely fluent because I was nervous but at least 80%. Sud...

Hey buddy. I agree. Traditional Speech Therapist are usually not the prefer way to go for what I have encounter. There are some exceptions of course. There are even some therapist that stutter themsel...

I wouldn't consider it a block, but yes sometimes I forget my overall point when I get stuck too long on a word....

I think the difference between stutterers and everyone else is that stutterers focus on their voice as they talk, while for everybody else, the voice just acts as an extension of their thoughts....

A few months back i also thought of something like this, but who can produce such an instrument. I read somewhere in a research paper. They said that there is feedback mechanism in brain that auto cu...

Just did the worst presentation ever

Just did the worst presentation ever Hello im 15M and in the 10th grade. We had make a presentation for French (not my first language) because I was sick I only had two days for it but I thought i sti...

Nope that doesn't help much. In fact, if I am reading something, I stutter more than if I was spontaneously forming the sentence as I spoke. But that spontaneous talking is still nowhere as detailed ...

I get what you're saying. That can be a struggle for me as well. I haven't put this into practice yet, but could you have your resume on hand? Or even a notepad with the skills pertaining to that job...

Sure I get that. It's not the judgement that I'm scared of. I have done interviews where the interviewer was cool and also said that he'd pass me to the next round. But I was not able to demonstrate ...

Speaking From The Heart

Speaking From The Heart It is hard to describe what "speaking from the heart" means. Maybe is better understood this way. ¿What is the opposite of speaking from the heart? Surely it is to **speak wit...

It is great that you notice. Observation is the first (and maybe only) step to dissolve your worrying. I dont think is a cause but a response of your mind perceiving a threat. I mean that is not bec...

Spontaneity is certainly better than planning every word. For job interviews I never plan exactly what I'm going to say. I'll prepare relevant things to talk about but not how I'm going to phrase them...

Not a pilot but I do work at a major airport. I'm able to drive on the airfield but I have to get clearance from the tower and airport operations before doing so. At first I was nervous, thinking I wa...
