Speech therapy seems hopeless

Speech therapy seems hopeless Im 20 years old. I go to speech therapy once a week, and we always do the same exercises. It just feels old. I’ve noticed some improved fluency but not a lot. It also see...

Talk therapy and addressing my feelings really helped me be more confident. Of course I still stutter, but I don’t feel as down about it as I used to. If you are able to do therapy, I highly recommend...

I definitely agree with a lot of this. I don't think that people should go to therapy to fix their stutter, I think they should go to improve their livelihood with the assumption that their stutter wo...

Not that involved to be honest. I’m based in the UK and the research on stuttering has been lacking. What’s available has not particularly been in line with my experiences of stuttering growing up. Fo...

I think anxiety is only one factor. There are other factors that can be involved in stuttering such as being conflicted revolving certain conversation topics, or your identity as a whole. There’s al...

Don't equate your stutter and your anxiety. While they are most probably related, they are two separate issues. Live your life. Stuttering can only stop you if you let it....

There seems to be different types of stuttering and possibly multiple causes. The question that most of us ask ourselves, "is stuttering all in my head," "Is stuttering my fault?" Truly, yes, there is...

Some people have vertigo dizzness. They have a tendency to fall. They began to fear of falling. Some of them even do not go out of their houses. Pws know they have a tendency to stutter. So they fea...

Drill & physical training (PT) actually turned out to be some of the easier things for me once I figured out how to yell correctly. Being so loud all the time destroys your throat if you don't do ...

I think one of the biggest problems is just being a teenager, stutter or not. Starting to plan out your life and becoming an adult is stressful enough. Stuttering only amplifies it. I eventually real...

A stutterer fboi lol Of course stuttering can be appealing, though. If it wasn’t, stutterers would have extinguished centuries ago. They obviously kept reproducing 😂...

That's great. We are all going thru the same phases that you are. So best of luck to us on our journey....

Thank you for sharing this. I can identify with much of what you say, and it is very painful. I don't think stammering and friendships/relationships, particularly for adults is talked about/ research...

Wow 3 years doing a job like drill sergeant and you have a stutter? That's a massive accomplishment. You get blocks too? Did it get any easier to do your drills after the first couple of months or aft...

I think having an aim of fluency is a aim against who you are. You don't need fluency to do the things you want to do generally...

No it doesnt. Your premises is wrong too. We lack confidence because we stutter, not the other way around. Else there would be many more people with a stutter....

He stutters once in 30 sentences and I stutter 30 times in one sentence. We're not the same😎...

He stutters once in 30 sentences and i stutter 30 times in one sentence. We're not the same😎...

Thanks for clarifying! I can't remember, in the video did he say that he stutters severely? If so I can understand how that's difficult for PWS who show way more stuttering moments than he does. If he...

Hi, thank you for your answer too! I just mean, he barely stutters. How can he represent severe stutterers? I can't feel a connection to him because he doesn't really stutter. He is fluent. I wish t...
