My mother used to stammer stutter. I think because of that I did as well. I actually block more than stammer stutter which I'd imagine just as embarrassing....

Does this occur with other words that begin with your lips rounding? Do words like, Radio, Whicker, Rhonda, Waiter, Wobble give you troubles too? If so, the explanation of Water doesn’t contain lip-ro...

everyday i have embarrassing moments , like yesterday i went to the bakery and i told the guy to give me one baguette and he told me "just one?" and i could not say yes one only on my language and i k...

Stutterers don’t stutter when they sing. Nor do they stutter when speaking in chorus along with other speakers (I.e. reciting the pledge of allegiance, etc.)...

Usually when I read and say I don't stutter, but idk what happened that time. I stuttered a bit on the speech. It was far beyond embarassing...

I have a repetitive/prolongation stutter sometimes, but i mostly have a blocking stutter. Probably like 60/20/20% for blocking, repetition, and prolongation. Certain sounds tend to be more likely for ...

Well, you’d be one of the very few stutterers that I’ve seen on here who do not cite blocking as “I know I’m gonna stutter bad, so I try to say it without stuttering but I can’t”. You don’t have a re...

Okay, you're insane. Why would I ever prefer to make an ugly face and stand there awkwardly while I try to force words out? I would be FAR happier with a repetitive stutter. It's also in academic rese...

Is blocking an active act for you? Blocking is just a type of stutter to me, it's not like I'm making a choice to block instead of do repetition....

Maybe it’s because I have a severe stutter myself, but I can instantly tell you stutter by the first few seconds. Like I know what to look for and listen to. Mine is similar to yours but in some cases...

Listening to it again now, I couldn't help noticing all the repetition. I guess that makes it an even better song for us ;)...

"We may continue speaking when the basal ganglia say no" The basal ganglia are involved in speech whether we like it or don't like it. They are essential. In reply to your question: **"**What do ...

Omg I started doing that too in jr high. I think it’s a way to get past a block. My friends son who was just beginning to talk started doing that as well. It’s crazy how things we think are unique to ...

This is exactly how it is for us also. My 15 year old son has had a stutter since he's been able to talk and no one we know of on either side of the family stutters. He has good days and bad days and ...

Definitely if I have to repeat myself I end up stuttering over my words as if I forgot them....

I've interviewed over 143 PWS on my podcast, and I ask that specific question, and the responses were split 50/50. For me, I still block/repeat...

She doesn’t even recognise I’m talking to her as I stammer when saying her name!...

Sometimes yes. But only for really hard words and if I am practicing a presentation. But if I am just babbling or talking to my dog, nope. I think my stutter is mostly stress generated....

Not at all. But I do believe I stutter in my dreams when talking to someone....

No. And that really bothers me because I speak fluently when I’m alone, going as far as doing impressions of others fine. Maybe that’s why I talk to myself (out loud) often...
