omg sameeee, finally someone has similar problems. Also if I write 3 fast then it becomes just a straight line without the curves in the middle, and then has to do it slowly, so all of my 3s are thick...

I literally have the same problem with 3, also had it with 5 but I somehow overcome it, sometimes it gets better and I can write a bunch of 3s after each other, but then it gets worse again....

Need help

Need help hello! I am 16 (M). I have a problem of only stuttering with certain syllables. And it gets annoying since several words start with or contain that syllable. In the previous sentence, I can...

I’m a man. I stutter kinda equally with men and women… But I stutter more around friends and family. With strangers, colleagues… I actually stutter close to minimal. I just get stuck on consonant clus...

I’ve have extreme dislike for every SLP I had because they treated my dysfluency like an articulation disorder, and I left treatment more ashamed than when I began. Please learn about the emotional a...

This happens a lot, especially when the question is unexpected. I've tried practicing self-awareness to alleviate discomfort, then just go with it instead of fighting it. There's nothing wrong with pa...

I’m an SLP and my own 2 year old started stuttering recently (which is pretty common around this age). There is a lot of cognitive and skills based development happening around the 2-3 age range, whic...

I just did a presentation for an Anatomy and Physiology lab with 40 people. It was 5 minutes long over the urinary system, which is kind of a hard word for me to say. The preparation for this moment w...

I drank some vodka before my online interview with a law firm and it was a huge mistake. I completely lost control of my mouth and was blocking on every word and sweating so damn much. Don’t do it 😭...

I’m in the same position as you, graduating uni and done with exams in less than a month. I had a job interview with a good law firm a couple days ago and couldn’t say one word without blocking. They ...

Yeah I think secondary movements are a thing. I touch my face sometimes when I'm stuck. I've self conscious'd myself out of it mostly but it comes back sometimes...
