Interesting. I did try going to a hypnotherapist about my stutter but cut the relationship early as I didn't feel convinced it would help. How are you doing since posting this? Does this self-hypnosi...

I see. But does it get better in real life scenarios after practicing? Because pausing for 3 seconds in between the conversation, would seem odd. So while this might work well in a therapist room, I h...

Ya I didn’t think it was helpful in the first month but recently I have noticed that I dont feel as bad about my stutter and am able to use the techniques more often...

Hi there! It’s great that you’re being proactive about finding support. There are quite a few platforms offering online speech therapy with flexible scheduling. Some services, like Sounderic and a few...

Everyone’s experience with speech therapy is a little different because it really depends on what you and your therapist work on together. For many people who stutter, therapy helps them reduce tensio...

6 months is not that long in the grand scheme. It takes years but if you start early it can really make a difference. Everyone is different but quitting after 6 months at that age seems short sighted....

No offence taken my friend. Speech Therapy is a proven and effective first line treatment for any speech impediment. With that said, Its effectiveness depends on other factors like age, severity and...

Science also pushes speech therapy; how has that worked out for many of those who stutter? After 6 months of working with a stuttering specialist we saw no results. Would that also be cruel and create...

Speech therapy didn’t help me hugely, because I somehow could never make fluency techniques work for me. I just couldn’t use them in actual life, or didn’t care to. But it did help a bit because goin...

I worked at a call center for a while. One trick that always helped me for some reason. I would turn on the camera and watch myself speak. Maybe when i would see myself block it would help me step bac...

I’ve been doing BJJ for about 4 years. You get more comfortable to talk with the few people you like and the coach. As long as the vibe is good (most gyms are) you don’t need to worry about talking a ...

It definitely helps a bit. I (20M) just started therapy a couple of months ago. I’d say that therapy, so far, is good to get strategies that can help in public or times when stuttering. The hard part ...

For me it's mostly a mental battle. Even if I stuttered badly, I just remind myself that it's really not that big of a deal. Because of that I don't feel such shame about stuttering, which makes me le...

Hey, I’m a speech therapist myself and just want to say: online therapy **can work really well for stuttering** when done right. I’ve worked with many adults across India (and globally) online who mad...

My daughter started stuttering around 2.5 yrs old. It was on and off. She would go 8 months without and it would start back up. So speech therapy was difficult that young. Drs said it was would probab...
