Phone calls

Phone calls Phone calls make my stammer so much more worse. As soon as I get off the phone I am so much more fluent than I was on the call. Beyond frustrated😭...

A strong approach avoidance conflict. Simply put, you really don't want to stutter. ...

Read Ellen Marie Silverman’s book and practice socially. It’s all I can say. It would take over an hour to tell u every single thing I did to make my speech fluent lol. But essentially it’s what she s...

Hi, that is the tricky question I keep asking myself too. I think almost every stutter have contexts in which they don’t stutter so badly or at all. I don’t stutter with coworkers, but I do a lot if...

Same with me, I got more and more fluent as I aged, as I settled in life, as I stopped being triggered by anxiety/stress. Speech Therapy never worked for me either, I had speech therapy from Kinderga...

You explained it better with easy onset. It does work. But it’s constant work. Then one day, you get faster and you don’t think about most of the time. But we are out here....

That sounds like something I’d been told a few years ago. Pretty sure they called it “soft onset”(?) or something like that. Ease into the consonants. Thanks for the response. I generally feel like ...

I enter into hard consonants with a soft breathy low volume sound then increase gradually to get through the block of the consonant. It sounds unnatural at first, but with time you get faster and it b...

In my presentations, all the class suddenly looks at me pathetically and they think that I'm nervous, guys I'm not nervous... I speak usually like this, I really get hurted from the way they're lookin...

Mild stammer - help needed

Mild stammer - help needed I’m 22 (M) and am starting a job doing in sales in about 2 months. I’ve never had a stammer up until the lockdown (18). It has never been too bad but I just use filler words...

It is a software problem but I don't think my software is any more faulty than an average human. I mean consider this - A person jumping from the top of a tall building. He cannot do it. If he tries, ...

What you describe seems like blocks which is a type of stuttering. I think you have stuttering probably a mild one. Also, repeating a sentence triggers stuttering in most people who stutter. For the ...

Damn protective behaviors hit home. Im so bad with it. My typical response to an awkward social experience in order to block out the bad feelings is to leave or avoid having to face that person again ...

Should I get speech therapy?

Should I get speech therapy? I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but I don't use reddit much and this is the best subreddit I could think of. I'm a 19M and I've always talked fast and some...

True, it could be anything. The fact that she stayed on the phone for half an hour seems to indicate it is due to the stutter though. People don’t want to immediately shoot down someone with a disabil...
