Block stuttering

Block stuttering Hi everyone! I was wondering whether any of you know what I mean by "block stuttering" and whether you've found any solutions (workarounds?) for it. Let me explain: as far as I know,...

Not really anything like that where I live. Im not from USA. It's kind of remote where I live and stuttering is such a 'niche' thing. I know there are others out there but I've never met another perso...

Nice! I wonder if they have NSA meetings in Canada, where I live. Would love to meet others in real life. In my experience, I feel like confidence is the best tool to combat fear. All the things tha...

Hey, it's really no problem at all. My stutter was also really bad to the point where I couldn't say my own name either. I remember very clearly the burning embarrassment and the feeling that I want...

Huh, how about that... I thought I was alone on this. Anyway, the first thing I do is socialize with the people I live with, and man it feels good to not worry about stumbling over your own words....

Anyone completely alone?

Looks like someone else didn't :D But I think it's something like this we're in here for. This sub is actually pretty much the only time I get to communicate with other stutterers like that....

I agree One of the best things I realized was first impressions don't matter. I'm sure you also did the thing where you go around in a circle and introduce yourselves. When it got to me I was so shy...

I just had my orientation at UofSC last weekend and not gonna lie, I wish I had talked to and met more people. I still had some of that shyness I had in high school. It's a long battle but I think whe...
