The block dies down because you're most likely in a calm or relaxed state at that time. You're probably focused on what you're trying to say and communicating that to the other person. It happens to e...

I only say you don't have a stuttering problem because once you view it as something "wrong" or something needing to be "fixed" or mind has already added negative connotations to stuttering (alot of i...

Yes I know why. When you're "under the influence" your mind-body state is relaxed, your mind isn't focused on the problem, you're in a calm state. The good news is you don't have a stuttering problem....

To put it simply. You don't have a stuttering problem. You only stutter sometimes right? Then why is it when you're playing sports you don't stutter? That's because when you stutter, you've created (o...

Not sure this is a dating subreddit. People are more than their stuttering. Having the connection that both of you stutter is not going to make a successful relationship. I recommend advertising yo...

I already do accept "weird" people. Hence why I used quotation marks. If someone treats me with respect, I will reciprocate it My problem is that society groups us in the same group as someone who do...

I think its disappointing how we have to compensate - for instance I am relatively good looking, witty, intelligent, and take care of myself (dress well and workout) and I can only seem to befriend th...

Appreciate the honesty in this comment. Sometimes it feels a little patronising/gaslighting when people tell you to just be yourself or that its what you say that matters, not how you say it, because...

I find reading out loud horrible because it takes away all spontaneity from speaking. I talk much better when I speak from the heart....

i don't speak i read.

i don't speak i read. i had a very bad stutter as a child until my early teens. then one of my teachers pointed out that i didn't stutter when i read. so i started visualizing words, and i'm not spea...

>For the last 2 or 3 weeks I have been forcing myself to speak more slowly to see if I am received better by others. Excellent. Keep it up! Speak louder, hold your head high, and "maintain eye con...

I don't know what is there to explain about an statement such as stuttering is not an impediment for anything. It may be a difficulty, but it doesn't make anything impossible. I have had good and bad...

But the truth is that you can stutter and still do pretty good at interviews. You can stutter and have a nice social life, a romantic partner, a healthy self steem... I don't mean to "live, laugh, lov...

Yeah it does for me because it makes me not care if I stutter or not at all. I just say what’s on my mind without a care in the word how fluent it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯...

The way to get past speech blocks is by letting yourself stutter. You start working on this my making the sound you're afraid to make and therefore block on. You can only start this work on the easies...

It should be obvious.. but it's not. I had a colleague admit to me recently that they thought I was just doing it on purpose this whole time. I'm not.. and it's not always apparent depending on the st...

Yes, thats exactly what I'm trying to tell you. You need be comfortable with yourself in whatever you're doing. I'm sorry you had to go through 'near total destruction' while trying to push yourself t...

And that's OK. We stutter. The odds of saying anything like this fluently is extremely low. Making the offender face your stutter might help them better see what you mean....

I think there are several factors. First, it's kind of an invisible/stealth disability. You walk into a room of people; you'd never be able to pick out the stutterer. No white cane or seeing eye dog...

I, for one, don't consider it a disability. My stutter ranges from mild to severe on bad days, and yeah, people sometimes look me like I'm an alien, but I couldn't care less. Life is too short to worr...
