We get that, it's frustrating, but start doing something that you might never done before. Start to voluntarily stutter, start small while reading, in family or with close friends, then work it up wit...

I don't think you should let stuttering get in the way of continuing med school and becoming a doctor. I would recommend speech therapy, but I don't think you need to take a year off school for that. ...

So, I don't know if this helps at all. But, I'm an SLP grad student and I worked with a gentlemen who stutters over the summer. We were working on desensitization and acceptance of his stutter. We use...

I think you described it excellently when you said “20+ years of speech experience and muscle memory.” We have such a strong reflex to talk in the way that’s natural, and I think social expectations a...

I know it's hard, at least in the beggining, but i am confident that it will be better in the long run. I think it should be hard as you are overwriting 20+ years of speech experience and muscle memor...

It does work, it helps build your cognitive feedback.it’s a memory and sensory game your brain has to play with itself kinda like the other guy was talking about. The thing is though, since you’re com...

Voluntary stuttering is soooo hard. It’s so hard to deliberately change how you speak. It’s just as hard as using a certain speech technique. When I was trying it I always got really self-conscious an...

Anybody experiencing with voluntary/pseudo stuttering?

Anybody experiencing with voluntary/pseudo stuttering? 28 m, stutterer since 5. I can read and talk fluently when alone, but experiencing anxiety and fear of judgment when with people. Went to an S...

The strange thing is idk if its supposed to help because when i tried speaking in front of the mirror in front of the therapist i couldnt but at home i could...

Honestly it really is a mind over matter thing. It took me a VERY long time to accept my stutter as my own, to live and see it as a friend rather than a foe, and to tell myself it's ok to stutter....

Do it as soon as possible! You can also start by calling people you don’t know on the phone (shops are good for that) and ask random stuff. Most stutterers really despise speaking over phone, but I gu...

Best way to fight anxiety is pretending to not give a shit and go out there and openly stutter. Trust me, I have seen this work for \~15 **severe** stutterers and it worked for every single one includ...

Yes to all three. Additionally, not avoiding any words, sounds or situations even if I did feel fear. And actively pushing out of my comfort zones by doing things that I wouldn't normally do, and qui...

So you joined a programme (the mcguire programme?) Read john harrisons book And did voluntary stuttering to reduce fear anything else?...

Changing perceptions- beyond my wildest dreams

I shall save you my fellow stutterer!!!! The answer is simple my friend. What makes you stutter? Find out which situations make you stutter the most and put yourself in those situations. If you end t...

When someone of my friends laughs at me I just stutter on purpose and say : F-F-Fuck you....

I think there are a couple of aspects to unpack here. Allow me some lines text, if you please. :)   As I've been trying to say a lot in here, we never actually move from a "perfect sentence...

Yeah this helps me a lot too, also press to talk helps me a lot too; because the action of pressing the button somehow triggers me to speak....

Something that works for me but can be hard to tackle is taking a new breath of course, and closing my eyes or redirecting my vision and imagining that I am alone, or talking to my Self....
