Thank you for this. To me kindness is the best part of our strength. I m with you "Every day let’s be kinder to ourselves and have the grace to give that kindness to the world ❤️"...

Best advice I could give you is similar to another comment… stop caring and start accepting your stutter. It’s important to think about your stutter not as something that defines you, but just a part ...

look at it this way…you’re wife doesn’t care about your stutter coz she loves you (i hope), you shouldn’t care about what the waitress thinks coz you’re not gonna see her again...

The only advice you should take is to **stop caring.** People are going to treat you badly regardless. People in the comments are saying, "Hang in there," but they obviously do not understand that y...

Thanks for saying this! My speech therapy was nog only focused on improving my speech, but also on accepting my stutter. I feel like a lot of people here might need that as well. I noticed that so ma...

Thanks! I luckily was never bullied for my stutter, which also helped. I was so afraid to high school (age 12), because what if people made fun of me for my stutter? But it was all in my hand. People ...

I got bullied when I was 6, and it triggered my stutter. People told me that it would go away, but luckily my parents were looking at it realistically and prepared me for the fact that it might not go...

I’m a stuttering specialist SLP and the thing no one ever talks about it surrounding yourself in stuttering culture. Watch movies and YouTube videos and follow TikTok users that stutter to normalize i...

You know what's helped me? Believe this or not, stand up comedy. Even though I've bombed so much (first year that I performed, I bombed, and I performed every night of the week). I've won some awards ...

Some good points here, but I would make this important change: “I *will* stutter, *and* that’s okay.”...

Man I say go out there and you present to the class and develop that confidence, we cannot hide our stutter out whole lives. For instance I recently did a presentation in a class and I stuttered too a...

I don’t tend to notice this effect in my life. I’m really so sorry if it’s affecting your life negatively in a way you don’t want mate. I honestly lack advice in terms to stuttering here, since this i...

A bit of exposure therapy and intentionally putting myself in uncomfortable situations. But more than that, it’s was deciding to think like a confident, in-control adult instead of a fearful, out-of-c...

Anyone else able to speak fluently with this method?

Anyone else able to speak fluently with this method? I discovered a couple of years ago that I can speak 100% fluent if I talk in an extremely exaggerated, country draw. Speaking like this is so exag...

Oh for sure. I think it’s because sometimes I feel ashamed or cringe when I stutter so when I see someone else stuttering it brings out the same emotion. I recognize this isn’t the correct reaction so...

Hmm. Forgive me for if I don't understand you here. >It sounds like you're stopping your repetitions by postponing (pausing) before the feared sound. I'm actually not stopping BEFORE the fear...

YES once I accepted it as a part of myself, doing everything that used to make me SICK with anxiety just becomes easier and easier. I'm not saying the anxiety is gone, but I'm able to take a few breat...

You only have one life to live, I taught part-time as a teacher and even though I stutter extremely at times the students got used to it because I made the class very interactive and a fun place to le...

Wow did you figure this out all on you're own? If so very impressive. This is the way forward and you're doing all the right things. Repeating is better than blocking. It sounds like you're stopping y...

Indeed, acceptance is key! I wish you the best of luck. Are you reading any books or following any type of program or therapy?...
