This is so me! It's terribly exhausting to the point that I'm totally drained after going out or doing any kind of interactions (especially speaking the language that's used where I live). Even though...

First time posting, happy to find this sub

First time posting, happy to find this sub I am so happy to find this sub and after reading through a few posts and comments, for the first time ever I feel like people understand my struggle with sp...

I spent the last 13 years not saying my bachelor’s degree. I might have only said it twice during that time (both with horrific repetitions)....

I think we all substitute words we can say when we block. Anything is better than being embedded....

Me too. I'm 98% fluent with very mild blocks. Most people consider me to be fluent but only I know when I'm infrequently blocking And word substituting mid-sentence. Anyone else?...

My personal stutter

My personal stutter I feel as though my stutter is drastically different from the “nominal” or “clinically diagnosed” stutter. My stutter happens infrequently, mostly when I’m nervous, But even then i...

even i am in the same situation as u , only while speaking to my friends my stammering is somewhat in control but in other situations like ordering something from a restaurant, initiating a conversa...

This is awesome to even think about. Gives me hope that younger generations are well equipped to innovate neat solutions to age old problems. Sick That being said. This is a tool imo. And a damn goo...

I just don't understand how you can use it in real life situations...Like ordering food at a sit down restaurant, etc......

I wouldn't use it to entirely replace your voice. This is good for YouTube videos, presentations and elevator pitches in job interviews things like that. Works for drive thru and restaurants too. How...

One thing that I would like to point out (as a stutterer) is that, please, do not force onto her the notion that stuttering can be 'cured' - that is a bit damaging to mental health. Growing up, I woul...

does that mean you’d use it?  i feel like it flies in the face of self acceptance, but again not enough to not use it ...

🤣 I’ve faked sick so many times lol it’s funny but you gotta do what you gotta do honestly if you have a stutter then other people who stutter will understand this. Just speak with a quiet sore voice...

Did you figure out a way to help ease the blocks or make them shorter? Honestly, I know people want us to finish our own sentences but when i’m stuck on a block, I feel relieved when someone finishes ...

Couldn’t speak to a girl

Couldn’t speak to a girl Yesterday I was out with a girl and she seemed excited and spoke alot but I was silent most of the time and when I tried to speak I ended up stuttering so I stayed quiet. ...

I’m the same way. I can’t portray what I really wanna say at times. When that happens, I usually send a email. I write wayyyyy better than I can speak. A wise man once told me, when you are in a posit...

Awful Job Interview

Awful Job Interview Just had a job screening that went awful. Even though I practiced so so much, I still had a of stammers on several words in a sentence. It was extremely embarrassing. Whenever I th...

The trick is to never follow a specific set of words. I always had a hard time saying what people wanted me to say. The work-around is to mix it up everytime you have to say the same phrase. "Goodmorn...

Stammer since child now 20 Since I was a kid, I had a severe stutter that got worse with stress and social settings. It goes and comes but funny enough my stutter has became a very bad stammer. Words ...
