Yes. 5 ppl in my family are fully fluent now but they stuttered when they were young. It went away around the age of 15 -18. I'm stuvk with it though and its getting worse...

I was similar to what you are experiencing. When I was nervous or anticipatory, like knowing I was getting called on in class, public speaking, phone calls, ordering at a restaurant, my speaking was n...

When you say light moderate what do you mean by that, since I consider my stutter to only be a huge factor when I’m nervous and usually I can say what I want....

My stutter went from light moderate at age 12 to almost gone at 19. I’ve always thought it was the anxiety of the teenage years that made it bad for those years, and once I matured a bit it helped. I ...

Yeah I do. Does this mean my stutter could be neurological? I’ve stuttered all my life but recently it’s gotten worse. I used to be able to hide it...

How severe was your stammer? I'm guessing since you're a lecturer, it was just a mild thing? Like a lisp? After a certain point of severity, some people will literally stop you from finishing your se...

You can't 'get rid of stuttering' although it can recover spontanouesly which is the most bizarre part in the whole story, because it is incurable, but can disappear itself. And may I ask did you try...

Yes, statistically (research) shows that 80% of kids outgrow stuttering. So yes you can overcome stuttering. Remember, the trick is 'automatically' so not therapy. It's proven that it happens 'automat...

Stuttering can naturally recover and that's true but there are a still small portion of PWS can't. You should tell it to your family and if they are reluctant to get you therapies then I am sorry. B...

Going back to my last question, I’m 16 bout to turn 17. I can still overcome my stutter right even at that age?...

Most of studies place the prevalence(prevalence excludes those who recover from stuttering) around 0.7%-0.8%(in early adulthood after puberty). And ASHA found out in the U.S 1% of adults stutter, and ...

I think he is referring to the scientific research that 80% of kids remove stuttering (they outgrow it automatically). Of course after they remove stuttering, they still have the same neurological dis...

Last month, my dad had bad heartburn after a large birthday celebration. We gave him tums and water. Turns out, he was *actually* having a heart attack and if we went to hospital right away, there w...

So true, but speech therapy is scientifically backed up to be effective on stuttering patients on average and because stuttering is different from person to person so therapies at times can't work to ...

I'm 27, was diagnosed around 3/4 years old, took speech therapy when I was younger and recently consider myself to be almost fluent, what sort of thing are you looking for? Would love to assist but do...

No, it really doesn't matter, because when you see how ordinary people talk, they do make mistakes in their speech....

Absolutely! The post linked at the end of this comment has a pretty good description of my experiences and success. I make about eight comments in the thread, covering a lot of ground. Other questio...

Stammering is often situational or context specific. I’m not surprised to hear what you describe. School was particularly difficult for me..I imagine the anticipation of being asked to say your name w...

Does it really matter that you stutter ? Serious question

Does it really matter that you stutter ? Serious question ...

Well it depends if his stutter is mild, or if he need 10+ seconds for every single word. Or if its so severe that he cant get a word out. Let´s hope he is a lucky one with the mild stutter....
