It’s similar to something I remind myself too… like, if I have a block or I stutter, the world keeps spinning lol. What feels like the end of the world to me is actually nothing crazy for the other pe...

Probably trying not to think about how I'm going to say what I want to say , trying to be present and not overthink . Also trying to speak in front of a mirror...

I understand where you're coming from I have the same issues with events sometimes unless I have something to mellow me out. Unironically though take your own advise and think about the wondering of w...

I think it’s because you are thinking on how you say the word, not just say it. It’s kinda like singing, you focus more on pronunciation. Marilyn Monroe’s iconic breathy voice is a tactic she used t...

I’m wishing you luck! You got this far based on your profile and personality so far. Try not to overthink bc that’ll only increase your nerves. I’m excited for you good luck!...

Doesn’t it make it worse to fixate on which words are red/ yellow etc? Like if tell yourself a word is a “red” word, you are pretty much guaranteeing that you will never be able to say it. The anxiety...

I (22F) got a friend (22M) who stutters and repeats himself constantly and I don't think he realises it

I (22F) got a friend (22M) who stutters and repeats himself constantly and I don't think he realises it I reconnected with an old friend who I haven't seen in many years, and we talk around 1-2x a wee...

I'm the same exact way. It's funny to think back to when I was a kid and adults would tell me to "stop, and think about what you're going to say, then say it" when I had a bad block...

I'm 17M and I can relate to this very well. I My advice is make your own little tweaks to how you speak with the help of speech therapy. I mean learning to calm yourself, noticing when you stutter(for...

Why do I only stutter when I think what I want to say?

Why do I only stutter when I think what I want to say? I swear whenever I think about what I want to say I stutter and can barely get the words out. But if I don't think about it most of the time I c...

I practice a lot before any interview. Literally, I spend week rehearsing the answers and go all out in the interview. What I found is the interviewer really does not care about how you deliver it if ...

Disclose enough to let people know what's going on. The point is to kill the "i'm not sure what's that long pause mean" panic on their side, and the "shit shit shit shit what if they find out" panic o...

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...

Yeah I know what you mean. Struggling to get words out means that it’s harder to control your tone of voice, and tone is so incredibly important for communication. One thing I do is smile and laugh ...

I'm an indian. Lived in the UK, for 3 yrs before leaving 2 months ago And honestly, my accent, the tempo, stutter, and interview pressure, combined put me out of the job hunt....

Well im afraid of not being able to talk to other students and teachers and being asked questions and not able answer (basically stuttering). And I think because i have a stutter i overthink everythi...

As an aspiring mechanical engineer at university, I am very worried about my chance at landing a job in engineering, which is made harder by the job market where i am being terrible. How did you find...

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’m a teenage girl, I can relate. I have a moderate-severe stutter that fluctuates. I hate the whole “It isn’t a big deal, just stop thinking about it” thing. If you had my stutter, it isn’t as easy ...

well... good luck. I started stuttering when i was 12 and it never stopped. just try to not become obsessive about it and u will be ok....
