I can second the breathing thing, I just saw a speech therapist for the first time and I also have blocks. She recommended I focus on belly breathing like in yoga, and use my diaphragm. She says to sh...

The science behind stuttering is a mystery to me and it boggles my mind how I can’t figure out in exactly which circumstances I tend to stutter. Although I have noticed that after I practice breathw...

I don't know how severe your stutter but I would advice, if possible, to partake in the classes and practise the speech. Breathing exercises could help with keeping you calm. I stutter a lot when nerv...

My primary gave it to me. Don’t let anxiety be dismissed. You need to ask for medication if you want to try it and you don’t have to use it if you get it. It is cheap, has been around for decades, and...

So what I mean by when I say we can’t hide shit, is we can’t hide from our stutter. The hiding it is what gives it power. So If you know you can’t hide it, then confront it head on. Rather than tryin...
