It just gets worse...

It just gets worse... My previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/87s549/this_is_forever_my_life/ I just called a hotel to change my booking days and I completely stuttered like a fuc...

Simple stuttering that I don't reflect too much about is simply a form of breathing block, I just pause and remind myself to breathe and breathe as I speak (blocking). Bad stuttering is a result of t...

Run through the sentence, no not that word, can't start a sentence with an h, change it to that, ok, no pause, here I go... Didn't come out, no one noticed, than God, ok, 1...2... Topics changed, than...

Preparing what I say ahead of time. Exhausting - so I stop this practice at the end of the day with family. Switch words. Having stuttering has been a blessing for my vocabulary - although I consider...

I absolutely agree with nukefudge , stuttering is not to be blamed on the stutterer. Its not his fault , he isnt doing it voluntarily. But what i meant was to reduce the tension in stuttering to the m...

I mean , looking at the people who have acquired stammer , which could be caused by brain injury or stroke etc . The only difference i find when listening to them is that their disfluencies are easy a...

I got a concussion towards the end of February. Fell doing drills during track practice, and I'm towards the end of protocol. I did notice that I developed a stutter as well as a type of slur?? When I...

In both cases the speaker knows what word they're trying to say and both have difficulty getting the word out. But that's really where the similarities end. People who stutter eventually get the wor...

I was told this so much growing up but I still find it almost impossible to do in practice! I naturally have a lot to say and get very excited when I talk, so even when I'm fluent, it comes out in suc...

Could a tumor in the cerebellum cause stutter?

Could a tumor in the cerebellum cause stutter? I suddenly started stuttering 20 years ago and I am still this way. Nothing has changed. I can't say particular type of words even when reading alone and...

Oh gotcha, I was unsure if you had terrible tinnitus and that's a common symptom of a brain tumor or something. I do stutter when reading alone, even just speaking to myself alone. This didn't always...

I went for the mri because of tinnitus. The neurosurgeon said that it SEEMS not to be related to tinnitus but the ear nerve is not far away from the tumor. Anyways it is VERY rare that a brain tumor w...

I've recently had several horrible stuttering episodes over the past few weeks. The last thing on my mind right now to get offended over is some sssstutter text on reddit....

Same here. I'm not easily offended, but I could see why other people might find it offensive. Also, not all people stutter the same way. Films and television often tend to portray stuttering like the...

You have what they call "speech block". Unfortunately I don't have a great solution for you. What I do is I change the sentence mid way, substitute words or simply don't say what I wanted to say....

I have this same problem. Delayed start is a mess for me as well. I am usually a good speaker but I lose the moment when I speak after the convo has almost ended. ...

My stammer has evolved, probably has gotten less of a problem overall, however it is more severe when I do block now, particularly on "st/sk" sounds. The next biggest fear for me is restaurants and ...

I find that I just have to really push myself to start or continue talking. This often then looks like I’m interrupting or talking over people, because of my delayed start :( ...

It actually happened to me. Went to a sporting event and was chatting it up with the guy next to me. When it got loud and we were talking about something, I was stumbling all over the place and just c...

Thank you, I will give it a try. I always get stuck on the first word, but after the stutter disappears...
