My friend did it, his stammer is very severe. It worked for a little while but he's back to the way he normally speaks now (didn't keep up with the techniques). I think if you want to do the McGuire ...

Yes the interviewer usually is able to hear me. If it is a virtual interview though, do it in a quiet room if possible. Unfortunately, I don’t know any references for the low tone technique as I learn...

Thanks so much for the tips! Is the interviewer able to hear you when you speak in a low, gentle tone? My interview is virtual so I’m worried about that. And where can I read about speaking in a low...

That’s an excellent tip, disclosing my stutter definitively does feel relieving. Also another tip I forgot to mention is to speak in a low, gentle tone to help relieve tension between your tongue and...

You have to stand up for yourself! People don't care about, if a sentence takes longer than usual. If they make fun of you or anything else, they just suck! Speaking is the only way to learn how to s...

I can relate a lot. My tip is: do not plan words. Say anything else that you are planning to say if you end up doing that. Say something else first - anything will work. If you for some reason fail a...

Oooo that's a tough one. What you want to do is try adding an easier sound in front of the difficult sound. Maybe an H (which isn't that much easier) or even S. Maybe F hhhhhApple or sssssApple or ff...

It's not always been this tough, has it? Things come in peaks and valleys. I can assure you that it won't always be this hard. ​ >but they have nothing to help with stuttering or autis...

I guess I wasn’t clear, but I’m so fluent now (bc of the podcast), that I go out of my way to initiate conversations. The longer you get down on yourself, the worse it gets. I’m in my 40’s and doing...

I don't know why, but I would imagine it's because you are putting conscious effort into the control of airflow rather than the fluency of the speech....

I always talk before I answer the phone and then answer it with the lead off of my previous speech being what I will introduce on the phone and I say it in a rhythmic fashion so I can't stutter. (It's...

Try this : 1. go far from your place where there is no one near and scream as loud as you can. Then come back and speak (scream for long, jump, if you can punch grass do that, don't just yell say an...

Becoming a standardized speech therapist would just be perpetuating the problem. Standard speech therapy for stuttering does not work and often makes the problem worse, Much worse. Stuttering is a ...

Strongly suggest looking at rest of podcast series. I once went 3 days with broken heat and freezing outside bc I was too scared to call. Once I did, it was very hard to get my address out correc...

Practice full breaths with the diaphragm, not the chest. Relax your jaw and articulators during the inhalation. Inhale at a relaxed pace. At the top of the breath, relax your diaphragm and let the air...

I need to try that. Does that make your speech sound like a robot? I feel like trying to speak in rhythm with tapping might do that....

Awesome to hear that OP. I have a similar technique where I remind myself to breathe. I would always hold my breath and try to speak with like that. That made it worse since I was stuck and could not ...

The diaphragm one is actually a solid tip but I always forget how to breath correctly and cause myself to stutter. The friend one is good too but I act as if the people I'm talking to aren't actually...

I get like this every once in awhile when I get stressed out there’s no need to see a doctor they are just gonna tell some bullshit about breathing what I do when this happens to me is when I go home ...
