We understand that. I know I still do. Their is definitely a mental and social aspect to stuttering and talking. For me it was about social anxiety, wanting to be able to communicate "like normal",...

What exactly is voluntary stuttering? Like on purpose? I think i remember learning that......

It is hard. I struggle with it too. Have you ever tried voluntary stuttering? This was by far the most helpful thing I've ever learned in speech therapy....

We've all been there. It's not the end of the world if you block. Your blocking so hard because your not able to show people you stutter yet. My advice to you is to seek out the free speech therapy of...

Well most likely you can't just go and do it like it's a force of will thing. If you block hard and can't get words out, you're not gonna do it. So instead you should make baby steps, however that may...

Watch Drew Lynch on YouTube. He has a stutter, he's pretty outgoing, and he doesn't let it stop him from anything. He has some vlog videos and just watching him go around, talk to people, not caring w...

I feel your pain. I really do.The only way out is through.I went from avoiding speaking and people completely due to feeling painfully insecure, depressed and anxious...to giving a TEDx talk earlier ...

Firstly thanks to everyone for.........(my block).................. r r r r replying im sure were all happy to be in the same boat regarding s s situation i would like to host a skype group or whatsap...

I like disclosing the first time i stutter. I can 'feel' when I'm about to stutter, so I say, "Uh, bear with me because I stutter, and this word's gonna be hard to say" or whatever, really casual-like...

Work on 'keeping the energy moving forward'. You can practice alone in your room reading aloud. Try stuttering on each sylable of a word. Play around with it. Maybe b b bounce the first syllable of th...

Great video! I can definitely relate to most of the tips, especially that you have to keep pushing outside your comfort zone and confront difficult situations. I am a covert stutterer myself and I did...

we've all been there, take it one day at a time work on your speech as much as you can. Don't hide your stutter it only makes it worse, accept it, work with it, joke about it so it gives it less powe...

A speech therapy clinic that focuses on acceptance opened my eyes. It was a 2 week intensive clinic and for part of it you walk around the college campus and survey random people about stuttering whil...

I personally dont think a few sentences would really teach them much, especially if they dont block. If they half ass those they'll experience the same mild uncomfortableness or awkwardness everyone f...

Gotcha. I've been getting a lot of mixed response about pseudostuttering as a way for people who don't stutter to experience what it's like to stutter. Why don't you think it's helpful?...

Thanks again for your response! Sorry if it seemed like I was trying to avoid doing the assignment--I've already completed the assignment (or at least the pseudostuttering portion of it). I was prompt...

Personally it makes me uncomfortable when I see someone stutter doesn’t matter if they stutter really or fake it . It reminds me of myself . My other therapist stuttered in our first session.she spec...

Hi! Thanks for your responses! Do you stutter? I hope you don't mind my asking. I'm thinking about incorporating some of these responses into my reflection about the assignment. Also, do you think it...

Thanks for your response! I think one of the problems is that some students have been half\-assing it. I know a few students who didn't even attempt the pseudostuttering exercise but are writing their...

Hi! Thanks for your response! Do you think when we experience normal disfluency we are getting a teeny tiny glimpse of what it might be like for someone who stutters? And if so, do you think the assig...
