Does anyone try to mask their stutter?

Does anyone try to mask their stutter? I'm 15 and I suffer from stuttering, had trouble with it since I was about 10, I had it when I was 5 but it went away for a couple years and than it came back wh...

It’s also possible to be mostly a covert stutterer - meaning you put so much energy into hiding it, most people don’t notice it. Especially after high stress events, you can have less energy to “hide...

Hello, I'm 25 years old and I've stuttered since I was a kid, so I have a little bit of experience. Here's an interesting fact: I don't stutter when I'm alone. When I'm talking to myself alone, I'm mo...

I think the metric for measuring severity of stuttering should be “how much does it stop you from saying exactly what you want to say”. Some ppl speak with frequent repetitions. Some people hide the...

Be brave, but get a job where you don’t have to talk too much in stuttering-inducing situations, especially public speaking. See an SLP with stuttering expertise, not for a cure, but to learn more, de...

I am 40 years old, and I did not "come out" openly and proudly about my stutter until I was 37. If I could go back to highschool knowing how much more free life is when you can 'scold' someone for ma...

This is so true. It’s the fear that holds us back, not the stuttering....

When I was a kid yes. But over time you get used to it. It's annoying but the main thing you have to try and develop is confidence so you don't let it hold you back as much. I speak to clients on a da...

A stutter won't stop you doing what you want - it's *how you feel about it* that can hold you back. I'm a covert stutterer. I spent years avoiding having to talk in case anybody heard me stutter. It...

You don't need to respond to every comment directed at you. We stutterers have very high sensitivity towards what others say about our speech - So much so that we start obsessing over it. we dont real...

I learned how to hide it because people stopped listening to me once I stuttered, or would just mimic it. I will gladly accept any other form of making fun of me except the stutter. Recently though I’...

I've done that so much that my vocabulary got so small that I had trouble making a full sentence in my head. It's a very big deal when you need to explain something that's important and not your dail...

Dopamin antagonists kind of work. Aripiprazole reduced my stuttering. But I stopped the experiment after two weeks, because it killed my motivation to do any thing. There is also a study on Ecopipam i...
