I suggest talking to your doctor regarding the issue. Developing stuttering at 15 out of the blue is a bit strange. Stuttering from brain damage has occurred before. It could also be due to stress. St...
If stutter was a side affect of stress and anxiety two things would happen. 1 stutter would be completely eliminated by anti anxiety medication such as xanax. 2 all people in stress inducing situation...
Can a stutter be classified as Tourette’s?
Can a stutter be classified as Tourette’s? Gone through years of therapies for my speech (among other things) which have all proved ineffective but seeing as it’s the only treatment for stuttering, I’...
Not all cases of stuttering are psychologically-based. This was debunked a while ago. In many cases, there’s a strong physiological or neurochemical component. Personally, I could be completely rela...
Let your teacher know. They will tell you normally that its no problem and tell them its something that you were born with and originated in the brain and not because of stress or being tired....
I understand you completely. I work in emergency healthcare and also had a stutter as a child that’s turned into a block as an adult. From discovering this subreddit I heard about Thiamine and Magnesi...
I'll add my two cents as well. from what i understand, disfluencies are possibly connected to the basal ganglia, which has to do with timing (among other things). there have been cases of people with ...
This is just far too simplistic to be “true”, although I grant that there could be an element of truth to it. From all that I’ve read and learned about it, there seems to be a confluence of factors th...
Maybe youve got the blood flow thing wrong. Bloodflow when dealing with the brain means neural activity . More blood flow more neural activity , and vice versa...
Stuttering is not caused by a lack of blood flow. It is much more complicated than that. There are structural differences in the white tissue of the left and right motor cortex as well as functional d...
"Common" stuttering is not caused by lack of oxygen to one part of the brain. By common I mean the kind in which people start stuttering as kids, the disfluencies persist, then you add a layer of anxi...
It's far more complicated than that. Although some people do end up with speech disorders, like stuttering, from brain injuries or strokes that will impact blood flow, it is far from the only reason f...
Stuttering Cause
Stuttering Cause I heard stuttering is caused by a lack of blood flow in a part of the brain. Would make sense how no one stutters when they sing/rap, as when you sing or speak with rythm you use a d...
Everything you write is like you have read that book. :) So I guess you would like it. I have a hard tlme making sense of alot in that book, I cant grasp it but I like what it wants to teach. The po...
He doesn’t need to work on his fluency because he isn’t articulating words with his mouth. He’s just making a noise. I bet when you bang your finger, you still say ouch or make some other noise. Or pe...
Oh I definitely think it’s neurological. At least partially. I know that stress makes it worse, but when I’m talking to a family member, I have no stress, yet those times it can be worse....
This, is exactly why I think stuttering is somewhat a neurological defect. Something that can be cured....
Ive sang for years and have stuttered since i was like 3. IIRC it's a different part of the brain....
Yes, I understand. And that's also a very common thought pattern: To construe of biological or neurological findings in terms of primacy. The interesting thing about this is that the interpretations ...
I guess it might be useful to know that the way that I'm using abstraction is the same way it is used in computer science. When you get a bunch of code together that forms a specific function, and y...
