And the stuttering just dies
And the stuttering just dies I didn't intend to go all out like this so soon in my journey, but I felt it was maybe time to address this mental itch. A cornerstone of letting oneself go and living mom...
Learning to think like a fluent speaker has made it all better
Learning to think like a fluent speaker has made it all better As stutterers, we're almost always in the habit of thinking about the words we're going to say, often anticipating that we might stutter....
The harder you try to speak, what people consider normal, the more tension you create causing you to stutter. The toughest thing to do is to figure out how to stop caring and just let go. I’m almost...
That’s a loaded question haha. The answer to that is unfortunately not satisfying. It depends on the person and mostly time.So what’s worked for me won’t necessarily work for you but here’s a couple t...
I could see how it might not resonate with you, but I am a covert stutterer who rarely stutters (Like I said I recently went a whole month without stuttering) so this mindset for me isn’t that terribl...
Hey, I have felt suicidal before. I know how alienating it can feel having a stutter, I chose to take a step back and slow my life down. I quit my job and moved back in with my parents, I know not ev...
Yes I share same ideas with you, I’m at a point where I’m done with it. Mind over matter I just believe that I can conquer it and bouncing off what you said, if our stutter only occurs socially then c...
Huge lesson I learned a couple years ago when it comes to seeing progress in my speech.
Huge lesson I learned a couple years ago when it comes to seeing progress in my speech. First thing to know, my type of stutter was on-and-off. But if your stutter doesn't fluctuate the same, this sti...
Well maybe watch the kings speech alone some time. Confidence really is the key to our troubles. I’m 26 years your junior but I have thankfully realised this by now. Getting comfortable with the uncom...
This reminds me of (I think) Chris Evans’ discussion of anxiety. That you eventually treat it like a friend. While you wrote that you couldn’t imagine having it with you the rest of your life, I total...
Just do it man. First month going to be rough for you but it will get significantly better on time....
No severe disfluencies or speech-related fears = cured No need to put unnecessary limits on yourself....
Hello. I wish there was a simple answer. What you'll find is every person who successfully manages their stutter will tell you the same thing, there is no cure. Just hard work and more patience than m...
Yea every time I’m worried what someone will think. I usually tell them I stutter and then I can finally relax. This is a lesson. The only thing holding anyone back is ones self. Keep on learning ...
I had a pretty severe stuttering condition from the age of 3 to 14 (I still stutter sometimes, but this age range was the worst in my life) and had trouble even finishing sentences. The constant mocke...
I do care, even though my stutter isn't severe I care a lot. But for me it's kind of a logical deduction: Ok, I get it, I have a stutter, now what? 1) Staying all day at bed, living at my mom's expen...
That is a belief you can have, but is it a helpful belief? Will fighting and negatively judging the stutter will make you express yourself freely? Nope. So I choose to stutter on purpose in a relaxed ...
I dont think there ever was a single point, there were a lot of them and aftrr some time, theyve made me immune to my speech fails. I also read lee lovetts book about how he beat his own stuttering....
I wouldnt say I totally 'dont care' I still get very anxious, but I have stopped avoiding speaking situations. Basically, I was 21 I was very very depressed. Depression typically makes people care les...
Disclaimer my stutter use to be moderately severe, but its getting better and its now mild most of the time, so I'm not sure that people with a more severe stutter would feel the same in this situatio...
