There's that reference to "breathless" again. It seems you think masks are making it more difficult to breathe. This isn't the case. What are you saying?...

Because some stammerers may be stuttering really bad and the face mask may make them breathless quicker which therein makes it worse (which can sometimes happen to me) - or for another reason....

I like face masks too! Unless i have to talk for ages i tend to exhaust myself and get breathless, I thought it would be helpful for those who don’t...

But you do feel anxious about speaking in case you do stutter? Sorry if I offended you, but I was venting towards the people with no medically diagnosed condition which could cause stuttering who thin...

For me , it's an equivalence . Both my anxiety and emotional state are increase my stutter. And vice versa . I think what you said is right , we should work on self confidence more and kill that fear ...

Yes. Its a bit indirect for me maybe? When i get nervous I stutter and when I'm nervous my muscles get really tight. I notice it most in my shoulder (unrelatesld tobspeech probably) and in my neck (...

“the fear of it keeps it alive”. Yeah that’s pretty relatable. The fear/nervousness always makes it much worse. Whenever I forget I stutter I can be almost completely fluent. My situation is probably ...

I'm 23 almost 24 and I've learned few things, as u grow older, as u mature fluency increases not sure exactly why, probably cuz you get better at handling your emotions (since as we all know stutterin...

My patterns have changed loads over the years. I used to block on certain sounds, then on any sounds. It would be worse when stressed or anxious or in certain situations like using the phone or with f...

I stutter different around close friends and family. I personally think it’s because I’m naturally more comfortable around them. My fluency also fluctuated when introduced to antidepressants. In y...

Mine also does that. I would suggest any basic de-stress tips that you could find on the internet. I typically try to think about something else bc my brain is usually going way too fast (I had an ele...
