I pause before speech

I pause before speech I stutter at start of my speech and remain stuck with weird face without saying any word. Sometimes people just go away from me because they thought I don't wanna talk with them....

the moment you feel the block just stop talking. then exhale/ inhale and then continue. it clears your head allowing you to focus on how to move your tongue. Works for me, unless im toooo excited to n...

genuinely nervous ***Stuttering is not the problem, the fear of it is ! That consumes oneself like anything. The long, hard and awkward gazes of people unknown. The long silences between two words. T...

1/ I stutter on the first letters if they are the ones that are difficult for me and sometimes on the whole word if I was more anxious and not feeling in control. 2/ Vowels: A O E Consonants...

I can definitely relate to fragments of that.Is you biggest challenge blocking,or is it another variation of stuttering?...

1.Mine is definitely both and depends if I’m more stressed than usual or if I haven’t spoken a lot. I started just on letters and this still is the most sever one. 2. O L M U W Is what I can think ...

My name is Jacob and it’s always so weird bc people want to call me jake which I don’t like but it’s harder when I wear a mask bc they can’t see my mouth get blocked up so it’s “I’m ja....ccccc...ob”...

I’ll try stopping for a sec and breathing before I try again. My hangs are long though, I will hang on a single syllable for like 2 seconds or more....

I think nobody spoke about this point yet. If I missed it while reading the answers, I am sorry, I didn’t mean to be redundant. The way of writing a dialog with a character who stutters should be diff...

I wish I never had blocks. Stuttering would do, atleast I'm able to convey what I'm saying. But blocks are the worst. It's exhausting and makes me never want to speak again. I'm 22 and I work at an I...
