Expanding on this- the pain you feel doesn’t and has never come from a stutter itself, has it? Or does it come at night when you replay your day and think of all the opportunities you wanted to say wh...

College student here! It makes my stutter worse but it also makes my brain remember to relax and have confidence in my words which makes me stutter less. If that makes sense....

Eye contact. When ever I hold eye contact I stutter less. Actually that's my pattern. I kind of close my eyes, look down, constrict breath and then I get anxious and in attempt it get it over with q...

Yes. It helps me keep calm and composed. I tend to be more eager to solve a problem rather than panic about it. Also whenever I speak people know I must be saying something important because I don't t...

I completely agree. It's practically impossible to talk to someone who doesn't want to listen, regardless of stuttering. I stutter more when someone isn't listening. It's often an indicator of someone...

Nature or nurture. There is no real science to prove or disprove it either way. Some stutters are developmental and could be a result of learned behaviours and a cycle of anxiety. Others are linked t...
