1. N/A 2. I have a hard time with W, A, E, and Th the most but I still stutter on other sounds 3. If I’m anxious or nervous, angry, or of I’m sick, I tend to stutter more. Sometimes if I’m REALLY in...
That was a really sweet comment. Thank you. I have a stutter about the same as your son. Can’t say my name; I communicate by writing things on my phone mostly. I’ve committed to becoming a software en...
I’m a woman who stutters and consider myself quite attractive. I don’t really think I’ve had pretty privilege to be honest. Guys still wouldn’t talk to me as much in hs but in college it got better...
The person who probably inspired me most as a stutterer was a girl I met in college. She was the first person I'd met who just embraced her stutter, didn't try and hide it and just talked anyway. Di...
Big +1, it was doing this that robbed my stutter of it's power. I allowed myself the humanity to express my annoyance at it and even the humor in it. Blocking is annoying, getting stuck on one single ...
I was very much an introvert when I was younger either that or I’ve always been an extrovert but I just couldn’t show it because I was painfully shy and would just opt to be selectively mute at times ...
Before the presentation even begins I would say to get it out of the way and let everyone know "I Stutter". Being upfront about the entire thing that's causing the fear and anxiety for us is going to ...
When we look down we see some motivation. Or it’s related to 🌈 pride and same way- look down and see some motivation /feel good vibes. I like it, either way. Kindness is a superpower....
I feel this everyday. It sucks but I feel we have to keep going. I've had acquaintances I've know for years and never stuttered in front of then one day it happens and they ask me if I'm ok and that s...
IMO the real answer is it doesn't matter either way. Let them finish the word for you. I do the same thing sometimes with fluent speakers too I think it's more important to be 'in' the conversation ...
In my experience, very very rarely do people comment on my stutter or take issue with it. In fact I'm not sure it's happened at all in adulthood to my knowledge. What's far more important is the vibe...
There's no simple cure and anything you do find that works immediately well may not last. As paradoxical as it may be, I would suggest you stop focusing on whatever sounds make you stutter. You prob...
Good post. To be fair if a stutterer did stop stuttering they would probably be happier to begin with. But this would very quickly fade as humans aren't really made to stay happy at one thing. New p...
It's up to you. Personally I would try to find out how long time users of the technique are doing (advertised and unadvertised). My opinion, is that anything which involves techniques like breathing ...
Stuttering isn't fun. But it's even less fun to mentally torture yourself. Slowly building the habit of moving on from speaking situations no matter the outcome will do you a wealth of good....
Agree with you 100%. Sounds like a scare tactic and can cause way more harm than good… - the Maguire programme I might add focuses on the importance of ‘relapsing’ and how prominent it is because it C...
Confidence is useful, although I agree it can be limiting if you're doing the wrong things. I think the most bullet proof tool you can wield and develop is working on your mind. When you feel like y...
I think the answers here revolving around tackling the state of your mind are spot on. Learning to sit with the thoughts but not engage with them is a very useful skill. Recognise too that fluent spe...
You have a state of mind that you will always stutter and nothing can be done about it. Everything you experience and feel is an appearance within consciousness. What you feel about stuttering is jus...
Self acceptance, self love, and confidence. Learn to live with the stutter because I highly doubt it’s ever going away especially if you were born with one. Trying to mend something that can’t be heal...
