A lot of people mention things like anxiety or fear, but I would argue it's how unpredictable it is, I see that as the root cause of everything else. Imagine for a second you would know that you alwa...

This happens to me a lot. People simply don’t understand we have bad days, and we can have very fluent days. Do you ever stutter REALLY bad around one specific person? Can you please try to redeem you...

I know exactly how you feel. I’m 98% fluent and I’m considered as a non-stutterer…until I have a small random breakthrough. Even we who are very fluent know we are still stutterers. I can never lose t...

It depends on how severe it is. I've been told it's cute. Other times they wondered if I was scared of people. The only difference was that for the former I had no blacks and only repeated some sounds...

I think it depends on the severity. If you sometimes repeat sounds I don't think so. Most people would just see it as the way you speak. If you legit have trouble expressing yourself, then yes because...

The lightheadedness I feel after a lot of blocks in succession...

Worst part of having a stutter?

Worst part of having a stutter? For me it would be the fact it’ll never go away. For SOME insecurities, you can hide them or fix them. Insecure about your weight? Hit the gym. Insecure about your acne...

Probably because they do not understand what a stuttering is and only think about it as of some sort of complete brain damage that makes you completely dysfunctional. If they keep doing it despite t...

I am 34 and it turned worse ten years back and is still worse. No change in past 10 years. Before that it was mild....

I think it depends on the person. The past year, mine has gotten worse. With that said, it has been a rough year mentally, but even on my stress free days, it's still worse. Again, I think it depends ...

Mine improved mostly because most times idgaf about stuttering, unlike when I was younger. HOWEVER, inside I struggle the same with controlling. Some days, like today, I feel very "stuttery", the same...

my stutter is peak worst and im in my twenties, idk what to do....

Does a stutter usually get better with age? And if yes, why/how?

Does a stutter usually get better with age? And if yes, why/how? Does it? My uncle had a severe stutter ever since he basically could talk, and it was severe until in his twenties I believe, he’s 44 n...

No. All other PWS in my family have a mild stutter while mine is severe....

Is the severity of a stutter (also) mostly genetic?

Is the severity of a stutter (also) mostly genetic? Having a stutter is (mostly) genetic. It runs in my family (on both sides, yep…). But is the severity (mild, moderate, severe) also genetic? Unfortu...

I don't. But it definitely is a handicap. Speech is one of the most important things in life. It's the number one thing that determines your success. That said, stuttering is fluctuating. It get's bet...

I was TOTALLY fluent for 5 years and then my stuttering reappeared. Now just mild minor blocks and prolongations but its devastating to me, nevertheless. There is no obvious reason. It just happened....

Yea I do. Although on good days it’s mild but on bad days it’s moderate and puts a strain on me...

Being an adult is hard in 1000x ways aside from having a stutter. It is ups and downs. Certainly didn’t reach nirvana once my stutter stopped impacting my life....

Im in my mid 20s atm, throughout my life my stutter has gotten worse and better at different moments. Sure, if I’m anxious and stressed it gets worse, but not always. Same as when I’m confident and he...
