Here is an article by Katherine Preston (author of "Out With It") about stuttering and suicide, written for the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. [Link](http://leader.pubs.asha.org/article...

I remember reading a scientific research that both the suicide rate and the consideration of it is higher in people who stutter than fluent speakers....

The evidence that stuttering is partly genetic is some of the most solid evidence we have in stuttering. The belief that stuttering is made worse or permanent by giving it attention or putting a child...

I found this very interesting. I should read up on the research they do about stuttering to learn more about what are the real facts and what is the real bullshit that people like to throw at us becau...

One of the best posts on here. He's right, Cosmo and his sources are industry leading and trusted. The book you posted is why a psychologist who is probably looking at stuttering through his psycholog...

Joel seems like a cool dude from his episodes as one third of the B-Team (the less clinical side of Stuttertalk). ...

UK folks - help me out please!

UK folks - help me out please! I stutter, and I'm also a PhD student at University College London. I'm doing various bits of research over the coming year looking at stuttering within the brain and tr...

Thanks! I'll have to look that up. I guess any textbook is going to be a bit disconnected from reality -- after all, that's the nature of a textbook (more theory than application). I'm finding Guitar ...

Barry's book is okay. That's the one my professors used during my masters degree. But I think there are better ones out there. I'm teaching a stuttering course now and I'm using Ken Logan's book, but ...

Before clicking the link I didn't know if I could stomach another over-positive unrealistic advice video. I was pleasantly surprised. He gave good advice and real world examples. Thanks for the link!...

The only reports of marijuana's effect on stuttering have been largely anecdotal. The exceedingly few scientific studies are decades old (and very difficult to find). However, no one has specificall...

Thanks, the certification certainly seems like something worth working towards. I appreciate knowing about this now, rather than when I'm done grad school ! ...

Hi Jiilan, I meant to respond to this sooner, but I'm so bombed with work from the first week of grad school. I'm really interested to hear from an SLP in the 'trenches', and interested to hear that y...

Thanks for asking! Well, the event that helped me to discover SLP as a profession was someone very close to me having a stroke at the age of 21 and developing permanent difficulty with speech and lang...

I can talk. If you want to learn from good SLPs, particularly for school based work, listen to the episodes with Robert D: http://stuttertalk.com/tag/robert-dellinger/...

Any success stories?

Any success stories? I am new to this sub and when I found it I was excited because I thought at the least there would be hints and tips being swapped about how to reduce stutters, at most, ways to be...
