If confidence doesn't fix my anxiety...nothing will.

If confidence doesn't fix my anxiety...nothing will. I have a dream of moving abroad, and experiencing life in another language. So I plan on hitting the gym as hard as I can, so I can have some confi...

We hold ourselves back. That’s it. How can you stop this? See how often you shrink yourself to fit in. How small you make yourself and go the opposite way. Things won’t work out immediately but notice...

Dude… it’s okay. Trust me. You talking to a girl is one step ahead of everyone else. Good job. Focus on the positive. Baby steps then man steps. And most importantly love yourself first. I love you. -...

I'd regret not trying champ. Like sure it's Hella embarrassing. But the odd shot it works is worth the go...

As cringe as it sounds, be the change you want in the world. You’ll find those who are most like you...

I believe the cause of stuttering is a deep insecurity ability to speak. Deepest neurosis lasting from childhood/early adolescence. Support and feel your voice, get out into situations that are most u...

I have been there but i fell back because I spontaneously got into a anxious situation and felt a stutter and pushed true instead of stopping and imagining my diaphragm. I’m now doing it again and it ...

Great response! Yes I agree with you, we weren't allowed to speak with the del ferro if we feel a stutter. You are right, if I was able to distract myself from this stutter feeling (or other triggers)...

It does not work as a improvement. It will only work as a cure as you are learning your diaphragm do move fluently. If you don’t stop when you stutter you will stutter and fall back into old habits. ...

The thing what makes the method so effective is that you stop if you feel a stutter and say it fluently after. Your diaphragm will get used to a fluent movement. If you do it but don’t stop it will no...

I can say, the method works everything you guys described is mostly true. It is a step back but only for 3 weeks. You have to speak slow and have to do it everytime. If you do that i will get better i...

I was the same way. Just getting over yourself is hard to do when you are so deep in the hole. But be sure to cut yourself some slack. This kind of mindset is something that only time and experiences ...

Yes, you absolutely can! It's the fear of stuttering that can be so debilitating. If you focus on being a good communicator instead of putting your energy into not stuttering, you can become very empo...

Your advice to take things in small steps is very helpful. I feel a lot of pressure to improve my speaking ability because I will have university interviews next year, and a lot of despair because I h...

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 taking small steps really works here. Also practice is key. Don't look at where you are now and where you want to be, this is bound to make you sad. Instead look at the small improvements you...

We understand your pain. I myself had the same problem for the last 2 years. Whenever I would muster up some course to speak for moments to anybody, that would become the highlight of my day. I crave...

How stuttering can actually make you more attractive as a man

How stuttering can actually make you more attractive as a man Hey guys, 26M here. I know a lot of us men here have fear to talk with women….But I had this thought today…women tend to be attracted to m...

I agree with much of what you say, such as, addressing the reaction to triggers, stop blaming wrong factors (e.g., thinking that fear results in stuttering instead of the maladaptive reactions), not a...

I understand your perspective on the Del Ferro method, but it’s important to highlight a key aspect: the method is not about identifying and psychoanalyzing triggers of stuttering. Many people who stu...
