I hate when people who are fluent slip up and stutter on a word and are like “whoops I did a Claire.” Stuttering is not a joke or an accidental one time slip up. I think about every sentence, every si...

You make some very good points here. I agree completely with all of your points in the first paragraph, I have found that people with communication issues are generally very thoughtful people. When I ...

Incredible how I came onto this sub to post something just like this, then I saw your post. My story is different, but our problems are the same. ​ My speech was good enough to get me th...

I recorded myself speaking once for a class video. it was pretty okay and kind of what I expected. But I didn't have the right format for editing etc so my classmate came over with his camcorder and r...

Speak like you were explaining something to the other person, gesticulate a lot (be very assertive). Use your hands, it may sound absurd but what you have to do to stutter less is focusing less on stu...

I get the exact same feeling. Do you notice that you never stutter while you’re alone? I honestly don’t know as much as I should considering that I am a stutterer, but it feels more psychological than...

It's common to have certain sounds that (almost) always cause trouble. But that doesn't necessarily mean it'll always be a problem. Some of this may be addressable in the mindset department. When you...

Yes, and the more you think about it the worse t will be. Just let whatever you’re going to say roll off your tongue. I was taught my whole childhood to think what I was going to say before saying it ...

Hey, man. I hate that my speech gets worse when I'm excited, cause you just want to get it out to share the excitement! I know I want to just live in that incredible excitement and be able to say what...

Try to become aware that you’re doing them. If I realized it I would slow down, relax my face muscles, and speak softer and slower...

I'm 26 and Ironically my job has shifted to mostly sales even though I tried to initially avoid it. I've found though that being prepared for the calls (e.g. having a plan and clear objectives) combin...

I had the same problem when I had my exams some years ago. The teacher and sensor didn't understand a word of what I said. Whew. I never managed to relax under that exam. ...

Hello. I'd love to chime in here if I could. I think controlling stuttering is definitely an option. However, I think a more liberating option is to focus on speaking smoothly, clearly, calmly and...
