It’s either you let stuttering define you, or you just view it as an obstacle that you simply have to maneuver through, but you don’t let it stop you from moving forward. I used to think I could never...

>How can I (like you) become more genuine and speak from the heart? What is your definition exactly? What exactly were you noticing of the part of you that didn't want to speak? I mean, what though...

I stutter and have some pretty bad blocks. But being a loser? No, I never let it define me. I have a hot wife, a good job where I get to travel and talk to lots of new people, I never let my stutter h...

embracing My Stutter in my podcast So I started a podcast where I can embrace who i am,in the episode I share my journey with Stuttering,the good and the ugly,I share moments where I felt so embarrass...

Some people are able to pass for fluent the rest of their lives without much effort but that’s the minority and even then, most of them simply become covert stutterers. They can swap words around and ...

I just tell the person “btw I stutter, hope you don’t mind” and then go ahead and say whatever the heck I was gonna say. I don’t hide my stammer any more than someone with Cerebral Palsy would hide th...

>It's 90% psychological, the more you think of it the more you will do it. In fact, me writing this post will probably make me stutter for a little while. The way im thinking is that it's almost li...

Thanks for summing up again. I understand it much better so here are deeper questions. How can I (like you) become more genuine and speak from the heart? What is your definition exactly? &#x200B...

Omg ur soo right!! I never thought of people’s thoughts when I don’t have eye contact with them. Eye contact has to be one of my biggest struggles ever and whenever I stutter, I just look down. I tend...

>I change the words I use to express myself sometimes AS I AM SPEAKING because I know the word is about to not work. I agree and a study showed that PWS can 90% of the times - predict a stutter co...

>I know that causing tension by forcing it out isn't the correct way to do it, but I cannot help it. I can't even answer a simple "how are you" or say "have a good day". Someone with this type of ...
