Me too broo, what I'm doing right now is I kept on talking regardless I'm stuttering....

I didn’t say stuttering was a learned behavior. I said blocks and secondary behaviors are learned....

It sounds like you don’t have many learned responses to stuttering, which is great. Not everyone relates to that though. The vast majority of stutterers have learned behaviors, like blocks and seconda...

I would add that part of managing stuttering IS acceptance. The more we fight stuttering, the worse it gets. That’s all I mean by accepting stuttering. And, the fact that there’s absolutely nothing wr...

Fighting your stutter is the vicious cycle. I suggest reading my articles to find out why. Accepting it doesn’t mean we aren’t trying to reduce struggle and tension. Again, there are some good stutter...

I would like to add one quick thing though: total acceptance is certainly the key, but when you mention “all kinds of stuttering,” I’m assuming you’re referring to things like blocks. This is a tricky...

I have a Stutzer for 38 years nie. Sometimes ITS more sometimes its less. What i have are Problems With Letters at the start and also sometimes wird's Just dont want to get Out than what helps ne is t...

It's odd because it can tend to happen at the end of the word.  Sometimes people feel like they keep losing all breath trying to finish a word, try once, it closes up, try again, closes and it's like ...

>All day I practice speaking like that in order to reduce my secondary characteristics of stuttering like face contortions, spitting, repetitions, etc. You can't practice reducing secondaries all da...

It's the most basic symptom of stuttering. Blocking is when you try to say a word, but nothing comes out. It's a momentary lose of speech function for particular or range of phonetic sounds due neurol...

Stutter turned into Blocks

Stutter turned into Blocks I used to stutter, like repeating sounds until i could say the word. Now I can't do that. Instead my body tightens up, my mouth tightens, I can't breathe. I'm standing the...

I stutter and block sometimes so intensly that I cannot speak and my mouth just opens ive been laughed at alot so I definely feel that is why I block more ... especially when speaking my second langua...

I’m not sure if you stutter or not, but most stutterers can feel when they are about to stutter on a sound or word. So, often times the mind/bodily response is to tense up before the moment of stutter...

I’m not sure if you stutter or not, but most stutterers can feel when they are about to stutter on a sound or word. So, often times the mind/bodily response is to tense up before the moment of stutter...

So would blocking be like, tensing up extremely when we can't say it?  Whether that or repetition, we can't say it all of a sudden.  Or is it more like an intense fear like seeing a lion in front of y...

Hey pixel boots, I’ll reiterate what I said to you in another comment. The reason SLPs (at least the ones that know how to treat stuttering effectively) want clients to accept their stuttering as a di...

Hear me out. what you are describing is not something we should embrace, obviously. But, you are describing your response to stuttering, not stuttering itself. I’ll explain. I mentioned this in anothe...

Hey! Research in stuttering is still ongoing! Researchers know that stuttering is neurological in origin. There are differences in blood flow and neural function/structure. But, it’s still not quite y...

Well, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. The fact is, there’s no “cure” for stuttering since It’s not a disease. Some stutterers may not realize it, but you can actually say anything you want...

Sometimes, at least for me, stuttering is random. I’d have days where stuttering feels easy. Then days where I feel so much tension! I feel it has helped me to never expect anything… just letting it h...
