Hey there! I'm glad you went with it. It feels great coming off of your first course, but will only continue to feel great if you put in the effort. Keep doing the contacts and making the calls, eve...

I don't think I would for two reasons: 1.) When I stopped practicing/using what I learned there, my disfluency was worse after having gone through the program than it was before the program. If I mai...

I went to a few different therapists when I was younger. Do some research about local businesses and find one with good reviews. If you can't do that for whatever reason, you can try self-therapy, w...

Well you're certainly not alone. I'm kind of in a similar situation. Been stuttering since I was a toddler (as long as I can remember). Throughout grade school and into the 7th grade I attended speec...

Hello, thank you for your reply. Yes, I very much agree with you. My program is designed to address the uniqueness and individuality of the PWS, personally, emotionally and mentally. When speech pa...

I am a stutterer, and I am also a researcher for stuttering with years of experience. Due to my distance with the International academic organizations, I can only publish my research results here. Of ...

On and off since grade school. Maybe 6-7 years ?Stopped going when I got to high school. Didnt seem to help much. ...

>times when I don't focus on it are when I'm most fluent I don't think you should assume that it's _you and your focus_ that's the difference here, only that you stutter and it wanes and waxes (pr...

Yeah I haven't been able to completely lose my stutter as an adult. The way I beat it however was through a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, not giving a fuck anymore and simply talking a ...

From what I've heard, there's no way of *completely* getting rid of your stuttering behavior once you're an adult. I've seen several speech therapists the past few years, and that was pretty much the ...

I think finding a qualified SLP is pretty hard. I dont know how much it's changed from when I was growing up, but I was in my 20s when I discovered there were philosophies other than focusing on fluen...

I have had it as a kid and it helped a lot. I used to stutter a lot worse. I still try to use some tips they gave me like slowing down when I talk and prolonging sounds to help get the word out. Maybe...

Say, have you tried speech therapy? Or some sort of therapy, really. Don't distance yourself from the world, get a better stance on it. :)...

I am a fluent speaker after speech therapy. Sorry that it wasn't helpful for you. Stuttering is not a single thing. It won't take the same solution for everyone. However, generally, experts can he...
