A 10? wow. that's bad. What are some letters you tend to stutter more on?...

Ha ha, vowel sounds at the start of words are hard for me, too. But so are 'C's, so guess I'm screwed. ;) ...

It was not so severe. I could speak. My way of speaking was very complicated and many people could not understand me. I exhaled all the air. And then I was trying to squeeze words out of me as fast as...

Just wondering. How do you handle "big corporate meetings", since you've probably been through a lot of them. One of my biggest fears in life is, or should I say was speaking in front of more than 3 p...

Stuttering is a neurological defect first and foremost. This means that somewhere in our brain the wires are crossed up, which leads to us not being able to translate thought into speech as effortless...

Well, i usually divert words if the block is too long. You can also distract yourself by moving parts of your body (maybe legs if you are sitting down), biting your lip internally, or other body mov...

Hey i also do the ummm trick but what do you do if the blocking takes long i sometimes search for diverent words do you have other tricks?...
