I do agree that we all do it to a certain extent but sometimes I do it too much that I become anxious living in those conversations...

I do it every single day. It’s never occurred to me that it’s possible that it’s from trying to overcome my stutter. I guess I assumed everyone did that!...

Do you think conversations in your head?

Do you think conversations in your head? I'm wondering do you guys imagine/plan/analyse/think conversations in your head? I'm realising that I do this all the time, sometimes the conversations are abo...

I’m a lawyer and I’ve had to learn to speak publicly. My best tip came from my daughter, who is a stutterer, too. When you’re about to block, just slide your hand across a podium or down the side of y...

I also experience these, what’s helps is that if I feel a speech block come on, I just think of the word in my brain and think how easy the word is to say. The word is just a bunch of syllables, so I ...

Exactly! So maybe, next time you’re engaged with someone, think “what i’m experiencing is a trained reaction from social stimulation and the speech blocks are a symptom” and see if that can help provi...

I was watching a movie "About Time" and I was wondering if getting to live the same moment twice by reversing time could help us talk more fluently? Knowing at which words we get a block. Haha. I comp...

you know what's annoying, when people tell you "think about what you are gonna say" n!!!!, I know what I am gonna say!!! fluent people don't have to do That. The more I think about what to say the w...

Same issue here, but I have a trick that always works. When someone asks me to repeat myself and I know the words won’t come out, I start with: ‘What I was saying is…’ and somehow everything flows. Wi...

>*Although I didn’t ever consider it a stutter.* Well, it doesn't really matter what you considered it. If he stuttered then and he stutters now, then it's a pretty safe bet to assume he just stutter...

I have been focusing in self acceptance and building up my social skills/confidence for the past couple of years and really I am much happier than when I was focused on improving my fluency. The way I...

Thank you for saying so. :) I usually push through as well, even when it's rough. Plus, it's usually only family that try to 'help'... that might be coloring my feelings about it some way or another...

I am also struggling with a stutter that started abruptly as a teen/adult. It drives me nutty when someone finishes my sentence—even when they are correct. I find it rude but I guess it’s a personal p...

Yes, I’ve experienced that too. But if you tend to stutter on 3 words in an 8-word sentence, you’ll end up pausing and inhaling quite often — doesn’t that make the speech sound a bit unnatural? Has th...

I feel like you’re describing every stutter’s experience perfectly, lol. I think when I stutter I go kind of blank inside, like I’m blocking out the world because I don’t want to see the persons faci...

Do you know what happens? I feel that my brain has gotten used to not stuttering with people who are not close to me and now it is VERY difficult for me to approach other people because basically my s...

Yeah, I get that. You can't be angry all the time, unless you're happy having no friends and being *that* guy. Yeah, I get that. It's defo complicated as I can also stutter when I don't think I'm an...

What goes on in your head when you stutter?

What goes on in your head when you stutter? I'm always curious what goes on in people's heads when they talk. Especially if they can talk flawlessly without a stutter or any doubt in their mind that t...
