Yes, I’ve experienced trauma. Maybe to the point that I have PTSD from social experiences. There is no positive when I have a severe stutter and social situations. Every person, every social situation...

It's a bit difficult to understand the situation, so pardon me if I'm asking a silly question, but - what makes you think she's wrong? Like, _are_ you in fact hanging on to the bad stuff out of trauma...

Maybe a bit harsh yes. But as someone who is interested and works in the field of psychiatry I get the feeling that the man behind this post is a bad, bad guy. The whole post just screams that he has...

I personally make these mistakes as well, sometimes I try to rush through a word or a sentence. I am mostly fine, but it still happens to me sometimes especially if I try to talk quickly or I am nervo...

My stutter developed due to an awful experience i had with a bully and i always blamed him for that. But after a few years i understood that i could've developed my stutter anyways due to other experi...

I somehow tend to agree with you. It's like saying that a certain phobia is physiological. If someone have a serious 'pizza eating' phobia (for example), they can in fact digest and chew pizza, but ...

In my program 5 hours was all I got... it would have been even less but my professor who taught my fluency course added in a lecture on counseling when he realized how little we were getting. Since no...

That's interesting. So unless you choose to specialize in stuttering and perhaps even pursue a PhD in stuttering, you get just 5 hours worth of counseling on stuttering as an SLP in grad school? And w...

It’s entirely possible. I’m not a speech therapist but I did take a class on communication disorders in college for fun and to learn about my own stutter. I want to say it’s like... Aphasia? Regardles...

Let’s say a person has cancer. That person would have an oncologist to manage their cancer, but they would also have a pcp to manage their health, a psychologist to mange their mental health because ...

This 👏🏻 I’m an SLP grad student and I totally agree with this. SLPs are not counselors or therapist and we receive very little of this type of education in our grad programs (I had approximately 5 h...

I am undergoing speech therapy currently and they might help with improving the physical aspects due to which stuttering occurs, but it does nothing to mental blocks which occur, and it does not solve...

Kinda urgent I guess

Kinda urgent I guess I just want to call someone Just made a Reddit to post this. I didn’t know communities like this existed. I just want to call someone I just want to hear another stuttering voice...

I just want to call someone

I just want to call someone Just made a Reddit to post this. I didn’t know communities like this existed. I just want to call someone I just want to hear another stuttering voice like me. I’m sixteen,...

It could be a chicken and egg dilemma. But with the spontaneous people I know, they're just so good at **letting go;** meaning, they'll get into trouble more often that we do, which is expected becaus...

Of course, people stutter for different reasons (genetics, anxiety, trauma, etc.) and it’s a spectrum. There’s MANY disorders linked to stuttering which I didn’t find out until recently either...

I had it once after my father's death. I started stuttering way too much then(13 years ago now when i was around 9). The therapy really helped me and i was almost at the point of no stuttering. But th...

Thanks a lot. SLP doesn't use the factors I mention. I corrected all the factors causing speech disorders. Owing to that I could speak in a job interview totally relaxed and fluent without any techniq...

You are an SLP. I have a question about general SLP therapy concepts? Can a stutterer talk fluently without any technique in the occasions, where he used to have severe blocks? Do you work with the ...

Therapy (regular therapy not speach therapy) helped me tremendously with my stutter. Although most of my progress has came from self practice,working through past trauma and other experiences with a p...
