Yea it’s always the off guard times I block the hardest...

If I was working there, your order would be awesome! Imagine this: ok, we need a Snickers and Strawberry Lizard stat! This person is not messing around!...

Although not exactly the same, I suffer from stuttering in 'situations' where we stutterers are normally fluent in. I stutter slightly if I'm reading aloud on my own with no one else around so I know ...

Yeah that kind of sound. And when I’m interrupted, they usually just guess the word i’m about to say (I don’t have speech block that’s long for them to say “can you just write it?” Or something like t...

Frog sound, you mean like a throat singing sound? That's my sound. for me, any sound is better than no sound. Because with no sound, people would interrupt you before-sentence....

Once someone asked me that and I got frustrated (more than usual for some reason) and I snapped back, without stuttering, no I want you to listen....

I've done that once but I asked to do it. I was at the package store sending a package to my aunt. Her last name begins with an "O"...and vowel blocks are particularly bad for me. There's nothing that...

5 seconds? I am pretty sure that would be "just 5 seconds" for many stutterers. It could be worse :) My record is like 40 seconds. I understand how bad it feels. But it is not a big deal, it is just...

I’m definitely this type of cashier cause I also stutter or have blocks which oddly enough don’t happen when interacting with customers who go through the same thing! and it’s a fast paced work enviro...

What can cause a person to wake up with a stutter one day?

What can cause a person to wake up with a stutter one day? When I was in fifth grade, I woke up with a stutter. Sometimes I simply cannot get a sound out. In the middle of a sentence I'll just stop ta...

Happens sometimes but a lot less when I’m alone. My stutter is somewhat severe, but when I’m by myself almost completely gone, but I catch myself sometimes....

Wow I never ever thought of it so deeply before. I'm kind of on the side of hesitation. Hence I just get lots of speech blocks. What would your suggestion for me be? Regarding this trigger. How would ...

Today somebody asked my name and I sat there staring at them while no words came out. After an unfortunately very common silence, my name finally came out. Needless to say, that person avoided me for ...

I never used to... But off late, even when I'm alone, I subconsciously imagine being outside a bit I guess and maybe that's why it started. I also feel it is because I have been stuttering for way too...

Ah that makes sense. A couple of my relatives (like my great, great aunt) had a severe stutter. I developed a repetition stutter as a child, but now as an adult I have speech blocks. It’s kind of like...

How severe was your stammer? I'm guessing since you're a lecturer, it was just a mild thing? Like a lisp? After a certain point of severity, some people will literally stop you from finishing your se...

It’s not easy, but you have to act like it doesn’t bother you and didn’t happen. When/if you block, fight through it and just keep going....

If I'm stuttering a lot with my mother, I am not afraid of anything. But I still stutter on every letter or word...

My stammering experience has been characterised by blocks. During covid and wearing face masks, I probably endured the most impenetrable blocks, sometimes not being able to say a single word….I don’t ...

Last month, my dad had bad heartburn after a large birthday celebration. We gave him tums and water. Turns out, he was *actually* having a heart attack and if we went to hospital right away, there w...
