Stuttering and Neurodiversity Hello stuttering community! My name is Joe. I’m a school-based speech-language pathologist and stutterer. I wanted to share an article I wrote about how stuttering and au...

There aren't "types of stutters". People have different patterns and have learned/developed different strategies to avoid stuttering. It's not a conscious decision and often develops when we're young....

There's no delusion and it's definitely not easy. But if you want to learn to stop blocking you can learn to stop blocking. I have and I know several others who have too. It's not a forgone conclusion...
