I’ve found two things that help my stutter: physical exercise and using different apps on my iPhone. Physical exercise helps with underlying stress and can be as simple as taking a long walk at a bris...

Honestly I don't know what exactly triggered the improvement, the only changes I've been doing for the past months were: I was on finasteride(1mg) for hair loss, don't do this unless adviced to b...

Really well! It has helped so much. That and pushing myself to be more social has both helped so much. And getting 8 hours of sleep, it sounds weird but that plays a big role in it for me as well...

From my experience speaking on a bad stuttering day does require a lot more mental capacity, leads to fatigue and saying nonsensical stuff, just to avoid tricky words/moments. I can imagine any other ...

Social life

Social life I'm miles away from home, and finding it tough to make and maintain new friends. I guess most people who stutter have a similar experience. Talking is mentally and physically so exhausting...

Good question. I know my fluency suffers when I’m not at peak mental performance (lack of sleep, stressed, etc.) so I bet it does get worse with age. But Joe isn’t an “average Joe,” so he’s under a mi...

Watching Biden with Stephanopoulous…

Watching Biden with Stephanopoulous… Is this my future? I can keep it together, with a combo of word substitution and creative pausing, but when I’m 80, will I seem like a senile mess?...

It’s also because he’s sick. My stuttering is so much worse when I’m sick....

Not necessarily. It does give you more confidence though, until you open your mouth. 😆 jk…I do notice my anxiety is way less at the end of a workout though!...

Yes it affects my mood which affects my stutter quite abit. Mind you whats been most effective for me has been more focus on strength training 5x5. The mental clarity post training is so nice, I feel ...

Working out helps reduce stutter?

Working out helps reduce stutter? Does any of you who goes to the Gym or works out regularly have any positive affect on your stuttering? I heard a from a few people that working out regularly can he...

On a keto diet, the smell of acetone on your breath confirms ketosis, no need of blood/urine tests. I know from experience, it is very noticeable. I did a ketogenic diet many years ago, I didn't notic...

The hard part for me is staying on low carb/keto. I find heavy resistance traing (5x5) to be very effective as mentioned. But the periods where I’ve maintained low carb, going into ketosis I’ve notice...

That's awesome, I was only able to find 2 other reddit threads linking Keto/ low carb to reduction in stuttering, and the medical journal report I shared. How long have you been on your low carb rou...

Yeah same here. Generally eating low amounts of carbs lowers my brainfog and anxiety and makes my speech alot more fluent. Combine that with heavy resistance training and intermittent fasting and you ...

No, for me alcohol makes my speech much worse, it may take some of my anxiety away but I block and stutter more when speaking. Alcohol and tiredness affects me the most....

That’s so weird bc when I’m hungover my stutter is worse. Like my mouth is lazy and I just can’t speak...
