I do have times where I have borderline insomnia, but I’ve been getting more rest than usual lately. I do think that it’s the constant change of temperature where I am (it’ll be 80 one day, drop to 50...

I had a cold last month where I had pretty bad congestion which hindered my lung capacity so I was more definitely dysfluent because of it. However, when I have sickness that doesn't affect my lung c...

How much sleep are you getting? And what quality of sleep? You *have* to care for yourself. If I'm run down, my disfluencies begin to present more frequently....

Yes, absolutely. Hunger and fatigue can do it too. As a kid my dad always knew I hadn’t eaten in a while when my stutter got worse....

Stutter worse when sick?

Stutter worse when sick? I’ve been noticing lately that when I don’t feel good, my stutter is worse. I don’t know if it’s because I’m not consciously thinking about how to sound more fluent or what, b...

I stutter horribly when I am tired so if I have an important presentation the next day, I make sure to sleep well. I do have social anxiety, which aggravates it, but at 53, I don’t go out much....

Train on your speech in the mirror. Speak slowly and pronounce the words good. You will be comfortable. When the days come, don’t take any nicotine or coffee. Before you go to the school, mix some Asw...

Can I be successful as a personal trainer who stutters?

Can I be successful as a personal trainer who stutters? Hey all, I don't know if I'm just suffering more than usual today or what or if I'm overthinking. I think I'm pretty resentful of just how isola...

Seems like stress to me. Stutters usually have higher than average intelligence at the expense of having a paranoia, so probably you are fine just maybe sleep-deprived or have some mineral and/or vita...

I can talk relatively fluidly most of the time, but tend to stutter really bad when I am deprived of sleep, have to drink large amounts of coffee, when I’m under emotional stress or when I am drunk. ...

Me after a 15 minute conversation

Me after a 15 minute conversation Fun fact i run 20km without panting. I gues am doing the wrong cardio...

Completely understand you; I just arrived home after attempting to talk for a few hours. I used to be a funny guy before my stuttering worsened. The fatigue set in as I tried to make jokes, but humor ...

Yes. Even though I pretty much stutter covertly now, its draining. I basically live like an introvert even though Im probably actually an extravert. I don’t talk to anyone for a couple hours after wor...

100%. It’s physically exhausting using masking techniques all day, and mentally exhausting thinking about how you’ll have to navigate different situations throughout the day....

Talking fatigue?

Talking fatigue? I was recently speaking with somebody with hearing loss who suffers from listening fatigue where they feel tired after spending an extended period of time in noisy environments or try...

4.2g of potassium citrate which is 1.6g of actual potassium (38%). Since this post, I've further narrowed down that my root cause is high dopamine consumption. It causes me to always be relaxed and l...

I've been there. Strangely, right after I do a heavy workout do I slow down my speech natural and speak the smoothest. Anytime else, I block and strain my neck like crazy...

I have been taking 300 mg daily of B1 for 1 year and half and I can say it works for me. The only side effect is a bad body odour. I can't understand if it's due to B1 or something else....

I've been taking setralin for over a decade now, though I only take half a tablet (25mg) I notice a big improvement in reucing anxiety when it comes to speaking and improved confidense. I would recom...

Not at all, the idea is to host it in the evenings (UK time) which will most likely be around early afternoon for most in the US...
