How I Achieved A "Worry-Free" Stutter & A Great Physique

How I Achieved A "Worry-Free" Stutter & A Great Physique To preface this - I am 18 currently and I have been suffering because of my stutter since I was 5 years old. 2 years ago I reached my...

I'm pretty sure my stutter is psychogenic and I tried speech therapy in my early twenties. I found it helps a little for a few days then seemed to get worse. The biggest benefit to my own stutter is a...

Deliberate disfluency. Read out load and stutter on purpose. Extra perks if you do it on the sounds you struggle with most....

Such a weird one for me!! I was 4 when my stutter became a thing. I could talk perfectly fine for my age but we had a firework night and I wasn’t aware any was being let off as we was all stood out...

1) Developmental stuttering can never really disappear, it is a disorder of neurological and genetic origin (with the addition of environmental factors). But we can manage to reduce it or accept it (w...

Yea I've seen and read your post before. I didn't see any block modification techniques used in the approach you mentioned, just behavioural stuff. Voluntary stuttering can really help reduce anxiety ...

Thank you bro, I appreciate your advice. I’m trying to stop worrying about others’ judgments, and it gives me a great sense of freedom. Even if I stutter, I feel less shame thanks to this mindset. I d...

Local anything is really good! Online, depending on the social media, has a way of getting into peoples heads where we always assume the worst of what people say and it spirals into drama that become...

1. Some think it's unattractive, some care more about other traits. I know 2 very very successful people including 1 director at my company and one teacher who stutter with all those grimaces and seco...

I’ve found stuttering on purpose is a good way of integrating acceptance and reversing some of this conditioning in some way. I think it helps to reduce the physiological and psychological tension and...

I used to block and force words that didn't come out. I still do it naturally (because that's how I used to "manage" my stuttering), but I'm working with my speech therapist to let it come, without tr...

You will benefit immensely because it will shift your perspective towards stuttering (as it is mainly psychological) and it goes deep in it. If you have the money you can skip this process and book an...

yeah ive read john harrisons redefining stuttering book and it really is a breakthrough book focusing on the psychological . But It goes so deep that you get stressed that Oh I have to solve sooo much...

I started the voluntary stutter a long time ago...about 15 years. I am much more comfortable with my stuttering. I would say im about 90% less bothered by it. But don't worry, new problems have tak...

They do this on the Maguire Programme after the technique has been shoved down your throat for a few days. It's one of the better things they do, to be fair. Exposure therapy can be good as long as yo...

Agreed I am doing a course of DSA and i earlier I used to shy away from asking doubts in class But now I don't And tbh it has really helped me Sometimes I don't stutter and whenever I do i do see...

I fully agree on all of this. The best thing to do is to expose yourself to your fears and make progress from there...

I agree. I’ve been doing this. I wouldn’t want to ever fall back into old patterns of not speaking in fear of stammering. Life begins outside of your comfort zone as they say. And in some cases, the m...
