🙌 same 🙌 Sometimes singing poorly to myself on the drive to work helps me be fluent when I get to work. Does not last just means I can say good morning how are you to 15 people in 5 mins like a "...
It does in a sense that it trains your brain to make you think you are fluent. If you can be fluent when you’re alone, you can be fluent whenever and whenever if you train your brain. Tell yourself yo...
Hey, thank you for your nice reply! Yeah, I also just heard the "Do you prefer mountains or the sea?" ice breaker for the first time like two months ago and I was like "wait omg that's actually so ge...
I would personally suggest that the parents do not speak on the child's behalf, such as ordering meals at restaurants and the like. My parents did this (in good faith, they didn't know any better) and...
Hi! Sorry for my english...glad to see you have cured your stuttering. I think that I have the exact same problem that you, something that induces the valsalva mecanism in certain situations and can't...
How young is the child? If they are old enough, let them indicate how they want you to help (or not help). Some of us like it when someone else "finishes our sentence" if they can tell we are struggl...
That's a great message. Indeed, I've always thought about the fact that even if I stopped having blocks in my speech someday, nothing would change in general: in my whole life as a stutterer I hardly ...
For me, that is the hardest thing to deal with being a person who stutters… it’s the blocks that get you the confused and shocked looks and the crazy assumptions made about you. My current job I work ...

Yes I do make faces. I feel my head slightly twitching back and forth and my eyes closed or twitching too....
I hope this doesn’t sound like we’re ganging up on you hear but sit down and have think back to that time. There’s bound to be something that’s triggered it. Could be something really small too. The...
Hey, thanks for the kind and supporting words and congrats on your achieved fluency! I've seen a handful of speech therapist in my time and even though it's gotten a bit better, it still didn't make ...
Same 5 years with my gf, probably 8 months of dating before she truly caught on, even then she’s like “I notice sometimes but I stutter too!” Hers is more just tripped up talking to fast mines a true ...
Damn. I feel for you brother, sucks to have ones inability to communicate clearly be mistaken for lack competence. Happened to me more than a few times now. Whats your move now? Gotten another job?...
I just finished college two month ago. I got my first interview 3 weeks ago. It was the first professional interview I ever do. It was in English (which is my second language). I got straight up rejec...
The best thing I did was trying to take more pauses when I speak and slow down my speech, and tried to really think through what I'm trying to say. Another thing that helped is trying to speak in a ...
The mindset is everything...you have only one life and because this problem (there is much worst in the world) you limit yourself. My speech change when I started to improve other areas of my life,be ...
Are you saying I can't work with a therapist who's not from my area? I'm from Lithuania, been discussing some details with therapist from the Netherlands, she didn't mention any difficulties. Thank yo...
