I am not the poster you responded to, but I also stutter on hard consonants. It's all blocks for me. For example, the word reservation is hard because it starts with a hard consonant and has a second ...

I feel ya friend. I've experienced all the above. I developed severe speech anxiety over it. Feeling like I had to rush my thoughts, afraid of being interrupted. Afraid of blocks in the middle of phra...

I stutter more on harsh sounding words starting with B, D, G, K, P, T....

I usually don’t have one that’s severe as compared to others, but honestly I’m not sure. I’d say for most of my life it’s been repetitions (think Porky Pig-esque). But recently, I went through some p...

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. I believe everyone’s stutter is unique. Would like to know one thing, Which type of stutter do you have? 1. Blocks (where nothing comes out) 2. Repe...

Hey, thanks so much for the detailed feedback, I really appreciate it. Just a quick question: is your stutter the blocking type, where you get stuck and no words come out? From what I’ve read, there ...

Ur stutter are quite similar to mine but mine some days like it's not even there, but the part when the stutter comes hard when w people I know it's soo true when I talk to my mom I literally can't sa...

Thank you for this. I have the same type of stuttering. Blockage I feel is worse than repeating.🙁...

Oh god I thought everyone doesn't stutter when they are alone?...

I almost always know when I’ll block and I also get what you mean about having a script. Most of the time planning out what I’m going to say just makes it worse. My best speech is when I’m surprised a...

Advice for vocal blocks?

Advice for vocal blocks? I feel even when I slow down my speech to avoid stutters I end up with a vocal block instead. It makes me feel dumb because it looks like I have no clue what I'm talking about...

I relate with the question thing too! Anytime I’m asked a question I 100% will block on nearly every word, especially towards the beginning. Sometimes, if it’s not as bad, I’ll block on the first few ...

As someone who has been told they couldn’t be hired because of my stutter during interviews, I would only disclose it in the interview if you end up stuttering. Jobs can easily discriminate now by jus...

Does anyone have the same stutter as me?

Does anyone have the same stutter as me? My stutter is usually very light, especially when I talk to myself. It’s like it’s barely there during those moments, but when i talk to someone l have these b...

I totally understand. At school it was always teacher saying 'first to shout out the correct answer' and I never could, even though I knew it because of my blocks. I have got very good with changing...

Been dealing with stutter blocks my entire life. I work in corporate America where it’s common to do happy hours (drink alcohol at bars) ever so often. I can rarely ever start a sentence without speech blocks. Like there’s so much I want to say but I sit there in silence. Anyone else deal with this

I relate a lot to this, too much actually. Mine isn’t quite as severe as yours but most of my issue is blocking. I can sometimes have a conversation but anytime I’m asked a question it’s an impossible...

I personally speak alone a lot, I know it's a little bit weird but yeah I often do it. But I do stutter sometimes even alone, especially when I imagine myself re-living a situation and I wish I said t...

I know it sucks for you, but you gotta see it from their point, too. Imagine if you had to make a quick emergency call after your partner got shot and your call to dispatch sounds something like this...

I have the same type of stuttering you described, and yes weare really underrepresented even in stuttering communities. I always notice it when someone says “Hey, I’m a stutterer working as a lecturer...
