Have you tried therapy? Both speech and psychological. Life isn’t fair. You just have to try and make your particular situation better....

Hey man, you sound like a really bitter person. Why do you dislike therapy and speech pathologists? I haven’t been to one in years. But after quitting weed, starting a masters degree and wanting to ge...

That was not their first post. That was their response, which accidentally ended up in root, to my question. Now read the rest of it. Then go away....

There is no cure for stuttering. Probably never will be. However a good speech therapist will teach you about acceptance and not stress about it so much. There less you worry about your speech the bet...

A speech therapy clinic that focuses on acceptance opened my eyes. It was a 2 week intensive clinic and for part of it you walk around the college campus and survey random people about stuttering whil...

If you can, seek out another speech therapist, then (or several, for that matter). Or else you might indeed find resources around the net that could help. I think this may be hard, though, since stut...

Ya i know that, I was trying to say i am aware it works. Also maybe the commentator had a different experience of therapy. Even if so he should've put forth his perspective in a better manner....

If that is all you did, I'm worried you've missed out on other techniques that might have worked for you. Was this done with the same therapist throughout the times you tried it?...

_Just to note: I was not speaking to you in the above comment. I was speaking to the commenter just before that._ --- The emotional side of things can be difficult to handle, I agree....

The technique was to speak while breathing out. And i have to record instances of stutter. And then in the session I had to practice saying it there"imagining a similar situation".And no alternative t...

Speech therapy has proven efficacy (not an absolute, but an average). Perhaps you haven't found the right thing for you. **Under no circumstance should you come in here and discourage others from try...

I personally dont think a few sentences would really teach them much, especially if they dont block. If they half ass those they'll experience the same mild uncomfortableness or awkwardness everyone f...

I do not stutter! Just an SLP. I've joined a few different subreddits related to the disorders we see in our field because I think it's super valuable to learn and understand more about the lived expe...

So, I didn't really know what to expect as far as the listener's reaction was concerned. A few days ago, some representatives from the local NSA chapter came to speak to our class, and one man describ...

Gotcha. I've been getting a lot of mixed response about pseudostuttering as a way for people who don't stutter to experience what it's like to stutter. Why don't you think it's helpful?...

Thanks again for your response! Sorry if it seemed like I was trying to avoid doing the assignment--I've already completed the assignment (or at least the pseudostuttering portion of it). I was prompt...

Personally it makes me uncomfortable when I see someone stutter doesn’t matter if they stutter really or fake it . It reminds me of myself . My other therapist stuttered in our first session.she spec...

Hi! Thanks for your responses! Do you stutter? I hope you don't mind my asking. I'm thinking about incorporating some of these responses into my reflection about the assignment. Also, do you think it...

Thanks for your response! I think one of the problems is that some students have been half\-assing it. I know a few students who didn't even attempt the pseudostuttering exercise but are writing their...

Hi! Thanks for your response! Do you think when we experience normal disfluency we are getting a teeny tiny glimpse of what it might be like for someone who stutters? And if so, do you think the assig...
