I'd start with a Psychologist and an Speech therapist (better if both are used to work with people who stutter, not all know how to handle it). The speech therapist will give you tools to gain some fl...

>Asked our AE to read what I wrote. So, to conclude - you managed to successfully communicate that which you wanted to communicate, yes? :) - I think you're going to have to do something about t...

I am interested in knowing what you have learned in trying to retrain yourself to match your reading to your speaking. Particularly what your subjective experience is when you are reading. I recentl...

Yes. Best advice I can give you is work in tandem with an Speech Therapist and a Psychologist. Do some research before picking yours tho, not all speech therapists are used to handle us and while mo...

I went to speech therapy every week for years as a kid and I still stutter and have trouble speaking clearly as an adult now. But I also know other people who did the same therapy as a kid and now spe...

Well it all depends where you live. There are some speech therapy clinics that treat adults and kids alike and other clinics that treat for speech and so many other issues. I went to a clinic that was...

I tried it for 6 months, it didn't do anything. Then when I stopped, my speech got much worse for a few weeks and then became normal again....

I did attend some kind of therapy years back but it wasn't effective at all & after that I've not discussed anything related to therapies with my family. I don't even know how I managed to convi...

I second your thoughts on speech therapy. Practicing techniques with board games and reading was not that helpful. It doesn’t emulate real life situations. The helpful part was actually talking about ...

My stutter started around the age of 5. I didn’t have speech therapy until I was 7 and stopped going at 10. I was nearly 100% fluent when I left speech therapy (I have a mild stutter) and I felt a lo...

Therapist exercises work in the context of a nice, safe, supportive program environment. Back in your "real world" it's a totally different ball game because stuttering is about a lot more than how yo...

My mom had a moderate stutter and when she turned 14, she told herself that she was done (and her stutter stopped). As for me, my stutter appeared at the age of 5 due to a traumatic dog 🐕 attack and...
