I stutter more when I say words that begin in vowels too, or soft sounds, like "m" or "h", so I feel your pain! As far as the name change goes, if you like your name, then don't change it. Maybe you ...

I do the same. Since I am doing that, I can say my name fluently, but I am still very nervous when I know its going to happen because you never know, and saying your own name is the most embarrassing,...

I also have the same problem with vowels. My name starts with A so I start with a word I can pronounce like "MY name is -" "NICE to meet you I'm -" "THIS is DAVE and I'll be -"...

See, I don't have issues just because It's my name. Any name like Holly or Emily or Erik or Anna does it for me. It's the vowel sound in general....

Sadly, my middle name is Elektra which is just as difficult to say. I'm thinking about adding Demetria as a middle name and keeping Ylvie....

Can't Say My Own Name.

Can't Say My Own Name. I am one of the few who stutters on vowels and h sounds with vowels after them. My birth name is Ylvie (ill-vee) which contains a very sharp vowel sound. Today an adult came up ...

I struggle mostly with letters that begin with vowels and my middle and last name begin with an E. I also struggle sometimes with L and my first name begins with it :( just ironic really ha...

I'm 19 and just started going to therapy again. I haven't gone to therapy in 10 years for my mild stutter. I don't stutter a lot in clinic, so it's a bit weird for me. I don't think it's helping as...

For me, my stutter is about equal when I speak English vs. Spanish, but it's 10x worse when I'm speaking Chinese. It sucks because my Chinese is already pretty bad (I'm Chinese-American), so when I tr...

Stutter a lot when speaking Spanish?

Stutter a lot when speaking Spanish? I used to stutter a lot in English but now it's a mild stutter when I'm nervous or really excited (bad when I'm trying to roast 😥), but in Spanish it's horrible....

Yesss, I feel this too. Words beginning with "A" and "R", are very hard for me to get out. I was watching a video on YouTube a few hours ago and the people kept saying the word "Relationship" and ever...

Kinda but it's more of me watching a video and hearing some phrase that, as they said it, I can recognize as something I would block on. i.e. " I would just love to have some fresh air right now" I wo...

Yes. When you hear someone say a word you are wanting to say, does it suddenly become 100 times easier? Like they've broken some sort of special seal?...

Any tips on getting over my mild stuttering?

Any tips on getting over my mild stuttering? A couple of years ago, my stuttering was kind of bad. However as I grew older, my stuttering naturally went away. Currently, I am a 21 year old guy. Now,...

My stutter had come back really bad for the first time in many years

My stutter had come back really bad for the first time in many years When I was a kid my stutter was extremely bad and I ended up going to speech therapists for several years. It's been like 15 years ...

This happens with me too. I discussed this with my speech therapist and what he said made sense. It is because there is no substituting the words in a predecided text. So your mind anticipates blocks ...

My pet theory is that introducing is hard, because you can't substitute your name for a different word if you find it difficult at the moment. It's the same reason people have generally more trouble w...

My Story.

My Story. Hey guys, like most in the sub Reddit, I have stuttered all 22 years of my life. Growing up was a very challenging time because as we all know small children in middle school can be very cru...

Hey brother. Youre not alone. Ive also bombed in an interview and stuttered my ass off. Just remember it is not your fault. Im preparing for the same thing, I graduate in one month and will be job hun...

So basically if I'm understanding correctly if you were to say "five" you'd basically just say "ive" to avoid the block on the start of the word? Cause if you do this is what I also do which helps unl...
