This 👏🏻 I’m an SLP grad student and I totally agree with this. SLPs are not counselors or therapist and we receive very little of this type of education in our grad programs (I had approximately 5 h...

I don't think that they will ever make use of technology for curing stuttering. The science world doesn't give a damn about stuttering as if it is something harmless and trivial....

Acting is by definition not being yourself. I'm not sure which purpose it would serve to train in acting, since you're going to have to be yourself outside of it. Unless you intend to not be yourself,...

Questions about your personal opinions of Stuttering/Stammering

Questions about your personal opinions of Stuttering/Stammering Hey there everyone, just joined back into the community again after leaving a while ago. I have noticed that in real life I have always ...

You can be a good communicator and speech-impaired/stutterer at the same time. They’re not mutually exclusive. Similarly, non-stutterers can be poor communicators....

Cluttering can be a type of stutter. But why is it so important to you to make the distinction between the 2? If you clutter and consider yourself a good communicator then that is the most important...

THANKYOU!!

THANKYOU!! Thanks to this subbreddit I've finally put my speech problems to a proper "name" if you must, and I've finally figured out what's up. After doing alot of research its basically come down t...

Yes. I've been doing a lot of research into the neuroscience of stuttering, reading a lot of articles, and our brains are different than non-stutterers. We think of stuttering as *the disorder* becaus...

Well yes, if the phrasing of a statement directed at stutterers is abusive or hostile, I’m obviously against that. I wasn’t talking about the hostile language, though. I was talking about the etiology...

This is why I wrote 'language use'. It's important that we speak of these things in ways that do not assign blame, inferiority or ostracization. And note that we're not denying anything (as you sugge...

There are very few studies done on stuttering, true, but of the studies done so far, the evidence points to a neurological difference in the brains of stutterers. On a balance of probabilities, this i...

It's a matter of language use and devaluation. Also, stutter science is by no means done yet, so we shouldn't pretend to know it (in the fashion of the above quoted statement)....

It is both. Stuttering is a disability that causes the impairment of speech, which is especially pronounced for severe stutterers. It’s no less a disability than being deaf, blind, or paraplegic....

What’s wrong with the quoted statement? It’s actually factually true: Stutterers have been shown to have deficits in the timing cues in the speech center of their brains. It’s likely the main cause be...

It’s not a “learning disability”. That would suggest stuttering affects your learning ability, memory, or IQ, which we know it doesn’t. Stuttering is a physical disability caused by deficits in the ...

A small mouth does not a stutter make. What's "mumble" to you?...

Some of what you say doesn't sound like it's necessarily related to stutter. Perhaps it'd be important for you to figure out to which extent your problems come from something that can be addressed se...

I have a friend who has dysgraphia. He calls it “stuttering if the hands”...

No guys it is not mechanical problem. Stutter is a disorder of communication. If you wispers you are using an other communication channel...

This is actually very strage, never heard of it before. Can you be more specific? Anyway is not a language disorder, but affects the verbal communication Your kind seems like a sort of agrafia. It is...
