Yea at eye level like 1 foot away from me, nothing crazy. I didn’t have it up to my face or far away, it was at a neutral distance, in the middle....

Ive tried micro, no real difference for me. Then again, my stutter is more of a tic, so it might be different for you....

Thanks for sharing. It's always interesting to read about these journeys. My stutter stems from a vicious dog attack when I was an infant, but I see it more as an alternative neural pathway for genera...

My two cents how to relief your stutter

My two cents how to relief your stutter Your attention mostly can be at one thing at one point in time, this means if you concentrate on your thoughts your speech will be automated or if you concentr...

Don't have any tips but am also the same, learnt if I force myself to talk. I'll end up with a soar throat/general throat pain...

Were you literally shaking during the presentation? I noticed when I’m in those horrible stuttering sessions, I am literally shaking… my hands at least...

My speech therapist told me something that might be eye-opening, BLOKS ARE REPETITIONS WITH MORE FORCE. That means a block is just a repetition only that there is more tention on the speech part, be ...

Speech pathology student here. In school they teach us that stuttering is a single disorder with no single cause, but every person might stutter in a some ways more than others. We learn to categori...

May I suggest that your inhales result in that choking/sucking sound (again, posting this is incredibly powerful and helpful for all!)? Try just using exhales, practice making them forceful. Adding ...

Hurting Jaw

Hurting Jaw Hi, I tend to tense my mouth when I talk, I've done this for many years, and it's really hard for me to not do it. I get headaches from it, and my whole jam feels sore. I am feeling help...

So many awful moments. I remember being so nervous before having to give a presentation at school that I drank several shots of alcohol to calm my nerves. Just an awful day and the stress of dealing...

I had some similar reactions to these tbh, the only one i find reasonable is speaking slower it actually helps u maintain a consistent pace of speaking. I have a pretty severe stutter, probably bc i ...
