Same bro. I also have this habit of trying to rush on a hard block, and it always makes the block last longer. I think we created this habit throughout the years, maybe because when we were kids we fo...
Stop trying to speak and take a deep breath and say what you want slowly. That always helps me if I hit a bad block. I realize I block more when I’m rushing to get out what I’m trying to say...
I stutter and completely skip words when talking to myself. I'm not imagining talking to another person either....
I’d say it’s PARTLY a breath issue. A block in speech is always connected with the stop of airflow. Your diaphragm and or your vocal cords cramp up. It seems like breathing exercises and thus better c...
I’ve kinda been experiencing the opposite lately. I’ve been interviewing for engineering roles and stuttering severely. It’s been going quite well regardless. I’m expecting an offer today making 3x mo...

I think it went ok, I had a few long blocks but carried on through it and said everything I needed to say, I know I won't get discriminated against and will be given a grade I deserve because I have a...
I have one short song and the whole lyrics is "that was not the end of sentence. let me finish. let me finish." I cannot get rid of my blocks. So I do some voluntary blocks in the middle of some word...
I'm actually surprised by the amount of votes for stutter less. Any time I have to talk loud (especially when there's a lot of background noise) I get way worse blocks....

My entire childhood I thought it was specific letters for my blocks and, in a way, it is. But for me it’s words or “letters” that I cannot avoid saying. Such as my name. For example the first letter o...
