I find other results are possible also: Reading something _to_ someone can come with a stutter, whereas reading something _on your own_ doesn't. But we're different, all of us. It's part of what make...

Man you have every right to feel the way you do right now. It can be extremely tough. Especially being 19. That age is hard and full of constant comparisons to others (which of course does not make yo...

I tell you bro. I have had a stutter since I was around 9 y/o. Since I have started working it’s gotten better but recently I noticed it getting worse at times. I make weird sounds and blink a lot whe...

I stutter but not normally

I stutter but not normally Hey guys this is my first time here, I've stuttered since I've been 5. When i was a kid i stuttered normally like anyone else who suffers with stuttering would. I would get ...

Oh, I totally do not make eye contact when I talk to people. I can usually get as far as looking in their direction or looking at their forehead, but I look down a LOT. I don't know how much of it i...

Can I offer this perspective, vulnerability is strength. Having to be vulnerable is strong. Putting yourself out there with your stutter is strong. Vulnerability can even act as a character meter, if ...

People who stutter (PWS) aren't monoliths so take your cue from him. Does he flinch or look annoyed when he stutters, or does he just roll with it? If he seems unflustered, chances are good that he's ...

I've look this up for myself. Never been told about one. I've usually kept my stutter to myself even though it's obvious, so I guess people choose to ignore it. I've resolved to be upfront about it fr...

Ah, I see - you feel bad about _lying_. That's easy enough to remedy: Go tell the truth instead - and while you're at it, explain what you're going through....

Be good to hear others opinions on this. I think it depends on the person. Maybe if it was very obvious and they worked hard at it then it might be appropriate. My stutter got a lot better when I wa...

I’ve thought the same thing about Bruce and Sam but when I hear Biden talk about stuttering, I can tell he knows what he’s talking about. I wish that Biden would talk about currently being a stutterer...

This is why I love writing so much because I can express my true emotions and thoughts without the filter of stammering...

Definitely. Perhaps we sometimes tend to forget that communication can be difficult for _everyone_, regardless of whether they have an actual speech disorder or not. And then at the same time, we sh...

Yeah, lots of stutterers report being able to circumvent (more or less) stuttering by pretending to be someone else, or performing so far outside of normal personality that it feels like being someone...

I've read in "advice to those who stutter" second edition that substituting words lets you subconciously build up even more fear. Still reading that book, but seems to be a good lecture aswell. It's a...

It depends on how I'm feeling and how my fluency is that day/in that moment. If neither is feeling great, or if I don't feel like working through a block, I'll substitute a word. But if I'm feeling be...

I haven't read the article yet, but long-term "recovery" is possible. It's not perfect fluency, but it's significantly improved. I still have bad days, and have to work to manage my fluency, but I don...

It really makes no sense at all

It really makes no sense at all I don’t stutter at all when talking completely alone. My stutter is purely when talking to other people. The people don’t even need to be present as it happens over the...

do you stutter while alone?

do you stutter while alone? life long stutterer here going through one of those rough patches where i’m having more trouble than usual. This got me wondering why when i’m alone i can speak 100% fluent...

I can relate so hard to u, i think its the best to be as open and positive about our stutter. Maybe when u start your presentation tell the people you have a stutter. They will now know whats up and y...
