It’s a coin flip for me. Either I forget I have a stutter or I clam up and can’t say a single word. It adds a level of mystery to drinking...

Im in high school too and stammer, its nerve-wrecking. Tbh, practice alone and if when you are up there just say it like you are all alone. stutters will come here and there but it will certainly be l...

First let’s acknowledge that a stutter can range from being occasional repetitions that have no impact on your functioning - to secondary traits that make almost all verbal interaction painful enough ...

Come to think of it the last time I spoke slower I wasn't perceived as THAT much less funny - people still laughed at my jokes. I think the biggest issue for me is that I find myself to be incredibly...

"Talking fast has gotten you nowhere" this part is harsh, but the truth Although there are times when I can speak fast and be fluent, rarely, but it does happen, and when it does I'm perceived as qui...

Have been talking slow recently, definitely have noticed less awkward moments but it is also more difficult to be funny...

Thanks, really enjoyed the post, I found everything you said to be spot-on! I'm a chemist with a PhD, and I have to speak a ton now a days -- stuttering is always there but I found that it has gotten ...

Yeah, that's pretty much it. And different triggers elicit a strong or weak response. It's fairly mild most of the time these days after decades of psychological work....

I speak in front of hundreds of medical professionals 2x a month and it's not stage fright (quite the opposite.....I can't wait to speak because it's exciting, interactive and fun). My stutter is ju...

Well anxiety can make my stutter worse, but I still stutter when I'm comfortable. I don't have much problems with blocks because I was always impatient and would just butcher the word and move on rath...

I disagree with the first sentence. Generalising that it is almost 100% induced by fear of being judged negatively is unfair in my opinion. My speech pattern does not change when I am alone or not, I ...

1. No. I still find myself stuttering, my speech pattern does not change either. It is still harshly chopped up, with pauses in the wrong part of a sentence (sounds almost as if I was out of breath). ...

I made it for 12 years with moderate to severe stuttering. May be different for you though. Give the trades a look. Whatever you try it's going to come down to you and your attitude. Good luck I'll be...

Depends on how much you stutter. I've been stuttering since I was 9. I'm 26 now it's not that bad I just stutter on some words or if I'm stressed, I've learned to live with it and I'm happy. Meditatio...

It seems like you have really mild case of stuttering. Try to not overthink about it...

Anyone else feel their stutter get progressively worse and doesn’t know how to stop it

Anyone else feel their stutter get progressively worse and doesn’t know how to stop it ...

No that definitely makes sense. I also know what sounds are more likely to trip me up and if I can avoid them in a sentence I do. I'm not sure if it's just me but I've noticed my stutter gets worse ...

The times it catches me by surprise ARE the times I'm not thinking about it at all. Places I'm comfortable and fully occupied with activities I enjoy. In my case at least there's a pretty strong ge...

All I want is to be able to fluently speak. My life would be much more positive. But ill check it out for sure! Thanks for your response!...

That's a beautiful thought.. I hope readers can find my answers easily though my wording below. Started stuttering when I was seven yo (I'll share the story in another post later). But yes, stuttering...
