Sudden mild stutter at 17?

Sudden mild stutter at 17? Alright, I’m 17 and autistic, diagnosed some time before 10. Lately, I’d say about the weekend, I suddenly found myself acting “more autistic”, or in proper terms “unable to...

I've noticed psychedelics affect a lot of 'learnt' behaviours, i.e. things we pick up throughout life rather than traits we are inherently born with. Another notable example is fear of spiders (I can ...

It does work for some people. Anxiety, while not causing a developmental stutter, exacerbates it. When I'm not anxious I barely stutter....

For me it depends on the type of pressure. Some one about to hurt them selves? I can yell stop no problem? But pressure of a job interview? Can barely speak...

Sounds like a self fulfilling prophecy to me. You don’t ‘know’ you will but you assume you will. If you think you will then you’ll be extra anxious that you will, and you will (probably). Instead thi...

Many others and I tried to tell everyone that most of us (not all tho) stutter due to our anxiety problems. Thats great, try to memorize and get use to the feelings you have and apply them after you s...

SSRIs reduced my stutter by like 90%

SSRIs reduced my stutter by like 90% I haven't felt this fluent in a long while. All this time my anxiety was the cause of my stutter. Am I tripping or does this really work for some people? I haven't...

One thing I've noticed is that generally speaking, the less I have time or opportunity to think about speaking, the less I stutter. Like, if I'm put on the spot with no advance warning or caught off g...

I forgot to mention that it worked for "me" and may not work for everyone. Also my stutter comes from anxiety, thats why I stutter only few times a day when talking to myself alone. In my case accepti...

I think you misunderstood what OP and I wrote. Maybe I worded it wrong, so let me try again. I mean fluency is great, but seeking fluency personally made stuttering even more painful and affected my m...

I realize when pressure is placed on me I stutter less

I realize when pressure is placed on me I stutter less So yesterday I booked a reservation for bowling and my sister asked me to call the front desk saying where gonna be late. Usually on phones I stu...

Alcohol has this effect for many stutterers. It certainly has for me. What that tells you is like me, your stutter is psychological rather than physiological. It also tells you that if you don't car...

So fucking frustrated

So fucking frustrated This is just a rant. I had to read aloud in front of the class. I stuttered like crazy. Then after a few lines, I began picking up confidence but I was still shaking. From a 8/10...

I totally understand how you're feeling, I've got a mild stutter myself, but I largely blame it on anxiety. What it comes down to is the confidence you give yourself, and say it's okay if you mess up ...

Absolutely. To me it's about how I feel when I wake up, and that somehow determines my overall mood for the day. It fluctuates and it's very frustrating. Like with the other comments, my stutter is ...

Hmm actually you right, that happened to me too, i still remember how it were, i was like "guys, do you want to hear a joke" and when they said "sure" i just kept quiet ( i just couldn't say anything ...
