This is **exactly** how I feel. I seem to block more than I really 'stutter', and not being able to get the sound out at all for several seconds is really embarrassing. I wish more people knew that bl...

Something about one's own name just make it so difficult simply because it is such a an obvious thing to say! I rarely stutter, but about 90% of when I do it is while introducing myself. It is like ou...

Just sharing an awkward and awful experience.

Just sharing an awkward and awful experience. I have more of a block problem but I still stutter but it's definitely not as much as I block if that makes sense. Today I had to go into the store and as...

Hi, yes, I've read about this being true for other people. I figure it's akin to not stuttering if you speak in a different accent? Though, I suppose this would not work if you had both languages fr...

My stuttering is really strange. I have no problems giving a presentation or talking when I am *standing up or able to move freely.* This is because I use my hands to help my fluency. My stuttering co...

This comment is going to be long. Sorry in advance. I wish I knew what caused my stutter. I am a 22 year old woman and have stuttered since I was 9 years old. It sucks a lot to have to deal with thi...

Definitely more when I've had less sleep. But for me personally, I can go a few days with really good fluency and then the next few days, I can barely go more than a few words without blocking. I al...

It's random AF, i am so fluent alone.. but when i talk with whatever people, i stutter. ( I noticed that is worse with family members and strangers. )...

same man, if this is true i feel terribly bad for the dude but it seems so unlikely that I dont believe it. You could state any of the things you just said. ''was insanely cooperative'' then how come ...

Coming from someone with a lisp, stutter and on occasion cluttered speech-the above is most important ...

Less when I am really very angry and when repeating words with/after someone. More when I talk to someone who knows that I stutter, with my family members and on phones....

I don't have a stutter in conversations, but when I try to say something when I'm alone, I can't get the word out, and I have to count to four and snap to finally say the word. Has this happened to anyone?

Most stutterers block instead of stammer. That's what I meant....

There are times when it is a good deal better, but this happens really infrequently. Around 80% of the time it is as bad as I described. I understand the approach yourself and ETKDoom take and I do th...

That "stuttering = repetitions" thing is SO true... I have a lot of blocks where I just can't get something out, and it feels like people have no idea what's going on when it hits me. They know someth...

Help with blocks of vowel sounds.

Help with blocks of vowel sounds. I've stuttered my whole life, and I've grown pretty well adjusted to it, as now I can speak effectively in conversations, with a few stutters here and there. Recently...

I had the same as you (I think) and I have been speaking completely effortlessly and fluently for the past 4-5 days after a simple ''tweak'', I noticed that I engaged my abdominal muscles while speaki...

I was just going to make a thread about stuttering and phone calls. I prefer speaking to a person face to face, because then they can see that I'm stuttering and won't interrupt me. I tend to block a...

23, most people dont know i stutter because i have those ugly silent blocks and its pretty to avoid stuttering that way but its a shitty way to live life....

Maybe your definition is what people call silent blocking and Parry is referring to a different form of blocking....
