If you actually care about your stutter, you’ve already failed....
This is why conventional speech therapy doesn’t work. I am fluent with new people and fall to pieces with people/friend I know. So I know that I’m mentally ill but a the age of 74 who really gives a ...
Im not a doctor or anything like that but, from what ive heard, you just gotta stop thinking about stuttering, just accept it. Speak clearly, open your mouth wide and concentrate on every sylab. I h...
I was there once and it's awful. Not sure if that's your case but your goal shouldn't be speak "normally" but acept your stutter and become confortable with it. The ironic part is that will improve ...
I think that's unlikely to happen anytime soon, your best shot is learning to not give a shit about it and maybe learning some techniques to become a bit more fluent when you need it imo. Speech the...
Don't worry, I used to be there. Until I stopped caring what people thought of me. I've never felt better. My confidence is skyrocketing every day and I'm improving. My stutter is still the same, it's...
Looking back when my stammer was more persisting, I would say, yes, I had the same problem. From my experience I would say It has something to do with letting go control over what we say. The more f...
It is hard I know, It is frustrating I know. Sometimes it feels unbearable, but... It will not disappear in one day, maybe it will not disappear in one year.. but that is the real problem our wanting ...
I see it as a daily challenge to force myself to talk in as many situations as possible. I feel I have valuable things to say and it is worth people giving me some extra time to say it. I stutter fr...
Stoic philosophers, such as the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (through is *Meditations*) taught, among many things, the concept of the dichotomy of control. It's the idea there are things you have control o...
I'm speaking quite generally, talking about my lived experience. I just don't think there will be a cure. Personally, my stutter is significant better when I'm in a more positive mental state. So keep...
The "cure" is all mental. My theory is that a stutter usually persists into adulthood with continuous negative feedback. If you can let go of that mentality, which is extremely difficult, you can "cur...
YES!!! EXACTLY 💯 I focus on living and not my stutter. You'll be amazed that it lessens or just disappears. When I do have a block, I stop, breathe and continue on. Cheers!...
Good luck! Remember that it's not about HOW you say it, but about saying it with CONFIDENCE. I wish you the best....
Accepting yourself and your stutter, and working to improve it are not incompatible ideas. Each side often needs the other....
Embrace your Stutter, or Eliminate It?
Embrace your Stutter, or Eliminate It? I've been reading a lot on this subreddit and have found people wanting very different outcomes with their stutter. 1. On one hand I hear people say that they w...
I completely empathise with you. I developed stammering at the age of 15. Two years back I seeked out professional help. But I did not learn the mechanics of improving my speech. Rather, I was asked t...
I've personally gotten so much more mileage out of giving up on the idea of perfect speech or avoiding stuttering. I mean, of course I try to not stutter, but I try not to let it become my focus. Inst...
Then say it. Your voices deserve to be heard and if you never speak, no one will ever hear it. When others speak over you, or finish your sentences, or don't listen - make them listen. Keep Speaking...
At some point, you just gotta say \`screw it\` and do what you gotta do. Sure, stuttering can be embarrassing, but the truth is, no one really cares if you don't make a big deal out of it. They don't ...
