Just had an hour long talk with Grok where I vented about stuttering and the need to not feel judged. Well, i think this is the case because we know the bot won't interrupt in between or hold any bias...

Fluency when talking to Ai?

Fluency when talking to Ai? I find it kind of amusing how I am almost perfectly fluent when speaking with AI (ChatGPT, Grock, etc) using the voice mode. Seems like I can have long debates with them wi...

My stuttering has gotten worse

My stuttering has gotten worse I have noticed that when I speak. I start to stuttering a lot more, including also talking with my parents. I don't know why but it has gotten worse, I can't even read t...

Sharing Experience

Sharing Experience Hi. I've had a stutter my whole life as far as I can remember (I'm 28), and my family has also said it was ever since I started talking. It was worse as a child and has gotten bette...

what you're describing about blocks appearing suddenly makes a lot of sense actually. Adolescence is a huge time for speech pattern changes, and it's super common for the type of stuttering to shift d...

What you’re saying makes sense. Not liking how your voice sounds could be attributing to your stutter-like disfluencies, and this could be why you’re experiencing blocks at this age now, since feeling...

I’m tired

I’m tired I’m 22 years old and have had a stutter as long as I can remember. Everyday interactions that most people don’t even think about cause me so much anxiety. I can’t even say my own name half t...

What If Your Food Is Causing Your Stutter?

What If Your Food Is Causing Your Stutter? I’ve had a stutter since I was 9 years old. Now I’m 30. Honestly, I don’t know the real reason why it started. I went to many speech therapists. I tried ...

Thanks so much for your words; honestly, they really cleared things up for me. But I've got a question that might be the root of my blocks. I never had a block when I was little, but after 14, I start...

Same thing happened to me it was manageable during hs but college was a whole different beast. Became so much more anxious about it and it spiraled quickly...

For me, the stutter gets worse when i am nervous which i think is pretty universal for stutters. and in the case of a visa interview, it makes total sense why you are struggling more than usual! For ...

In middle school/ hs my stuttering if 10 is worst was probably a 3-4. Extremely minimal. Maybe even 0 at times. Around 21 it became more like an 8-10. I blame different brain chemistry, the uptick in ...

Yes, “box breathing” activates your parasympathetic nervous system and is a great way to reduce anxiety quickly. Method: - Deep breathe in through nose for 4 seconds - Hold for 7 seconds - Slow brea...

this is such an important observation and it's backed by neuroscience too. When we're under pressure, the brain shifts resources toward threat detection and away from the speech planning areas, which ...

My stutter almost disappeared... then blocks suddenly started at 14. Has this happened to anyone else?

My stutter almost disappeared... then blocks suddenly started at 14. Has this happened to anyone else? Hi everyone, I want to share my story because I’m confused about something that happened to me, ...

for me it also happens with the same words; for example i can pronounce them easily in most situations however when i am feeling anxious i suddenly can’t anymore even though moments ago i could...

this applies to me too and i think it’s because we are expecting to stutter so then we get nervous / anxious and thus we stutter more than we would normally...

Hey, I'm 6'7, 37 male and Stuttered since I was 2. It's hard when you've had interactions like this, I know it can be emotionally draining and spirit crushing. Don't blame yourself, keep trying a...

Situational stuttering???

Situational stuttering??? Does anyone else kind of pretty much not stutter (aside from a few words/names that trigger it but pretty much fluent) when calm. As in can hold a conversation saying everyth...

It’s really frustrating because the stutter has nothing to do with being suspicious, but people still read it the wrong way. I’ll definitely look into seeing a general psychiatrist for the anxiety, ma...
