First off I want to say I'm so sorry. High school is hellish for everyone, but especially for people who stutter. When I was in high school we'd go around the class and each person had to read a parag...
Stutter is probably connected to a lot of things. And then other times maybe it's not. This is just to say, we don't quite know how it works (yet). However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't address yo...

Man I gotta say, America is a group project. If you don't have support its going to be super hard to make it. For me it has taken an boatload of discipline but everyday is still a struggle. I'm goin...
Yes, but its such a variable thing for me... sometimes I stutter to myself, sometimes its so minimal I cant tell its there. I have no idea if my stutter is something psychological or neurologic, I've ...

I don’t know what to feel knowing I’m not the only one... My stuttering first appeared when I was around eight, and my mom was convinced that I talk like that to be cute or something(like wtf). But y...
Have you seen a hypnotist for your stutter?
Have you seen a hypnotist for your stutter? My neurogenic stutter has stumped my speech pathologists and neurologists. Because there's not a lot of research on this type of stutter, there are virtuall...
Yeah, it sounds like a regular stuttering disorder. Only difference is how people get it & we can only guess. For example - I read a user here saying that he got his stutter, when his parents "...
I'm not sure how my stutter came to be. But my theory is because of an head injury I got as a kid. However my dad says I started stuttering after he and my mother got divorced. I guess that had a some...
I believe that I was born with one. I had meningitis as a child and that left me mute. I didn't say my first words until I was 4 years old. As soon as I started speaking, I had a stutter. I had spee...
