Interesting, i used to think that i don't stutter when i am alone, so i read a few pages and i started to stutter even if i haven't been stuttering for a minute (even a hours). This logic do not apply...

As far as I know, no one knows the 'one true cause.' People have said genetics, trauma, wiring in your brain, etc etc. More than likely it's not going to be the same for everyone. For me I can only...

Yes. For example, you're asking about the different types of stuttering and if stuttering tends to disappear with time. Most people here suffer from developmental stuttering, but your character stut...

Thank you! Me too, I have a mindset and anxiety to stutter on these words. I'm curious. If we have never experienced involuntary stutters, does that actually mean that your stutter (and my stutter) is...

Thank you! Me too. I'm curious. If we have never experienced involuntary stutters, does that actually mean that your stutter (and my stutter) is not neurological? (there are neurogenic and psychogenic...

yes it can aggravate it certainly; I really dont know the research but I am speaking from personal experience. — my stutter developed right during crazy traumatic sh*t happening with my family when I...

Yes, it can be caused by over bearing parents and siblings. Its a way to self demean to display that you are not a threat to them. My analysis, 68 years old, stuttered in varying degrees since I was...

Can stuttering originate from trauma

Can stuttering originate from trauma I’m 24 years old and haven’t really struggled with stuttering in 8 years. But I stuttered a lot from 4 to 16 years old. Like a lot a lot. Some facts: - stutterin...

This is the same exact case for me. ESPECIALLY when I alter the tone of my voice or accent. I’m 33 and I’m pretty sure my stutter / stammer is trauma induced. I’m AA so I often mimic a Nigerian friend...

I am in the school of thought that stuttering is a neurological condition. Unless it is trauma induced, which mine is not....

Yeah, that's pretty much it. And different triggers elicit a strong or weak response. It's fairly mild most of the time these days after decades of psychological work....

Interesting I've never hear of back pedalling before. Blocks are the main thing I'm concerned about and is the one I think is 100% down to anxiety and the fright response...

By different types I mean repetition stutters, blocks, backpedaling, and in terms of the source it can be psychophisiological, psychological, physical, and I can't remember the other ones. That's why ...

I don't known what you've gone through but it makes sense that you wouldn't be able to talk in similar situations. I'm obviously not an expert but it would make sense for you to enter fight or flight ...

Almost* mean “not always”. So.....my comments *specifically* allows for outliers, like yourself. I’ve been working with children with mental health problems for close to 2 decades. If 5 year olds d...

I'm convinced that my stammer came from a series of traumatic incidents in childhood which are triggered by any number of things stress and anxiety among them, made 100 times worse in situations simil...

I'm a stage performer, and my stutter actually goes away when I'm in front of an audience performing. Albeit my shows have lots of music and distractions but it works. Stutters are typically psychoph...

I don’t agree. I know myself, I know how my stutter has progressed since childhood. It’s not just anxiety. Officially diagnosed stuttering isn’t the same as normal stage fright. Stuttering can even be...

I disagree with the first sentence. Generalising that it is almost 100% induced by fear of being judged negatively is unfair in my opinion. My speech pattern does not change when I am alone or not, I ...

Why is it that I don’t stutter when I’m talking out loud by myself?

Why is it that I don’t stutter when I’m talking out loud by myself? I only stutter when talking to someone. That lets me know this is definitely an anxiety issue and ultimately can be overcame. Thou...
