Yes, blocking is certainly one feature of stuttering. You can think about stuttering as a neurological issue in younger children around which layers of negative experience, anxiety, and avoidance ca...

I am a vet with a mild stutter, I found that talking very loud helped (thankfully I was able to talk loud in many military situations) a lot. ...

Yes. All the time. Idk if this sounds weird or not but the more momentum I have when I speak the better I talk? Momentum being how I flow the words or just winding up before I say a word. If I take a ...

There's a lot of good suggestions here. Just remember that if you aren't perfect and you do stutter, that's ok! It's how you handle it and move past the stutter in front of an audience that matters mo...

What do we say to the God of Stuttering? NOT TODAY

What do we say to the God of Stuttering? NOT TODAY I had another presentation at work today, this one was remote but I was on camera and it was recorded. I had a complete meltdown yesterday from my an...

I will move my toes like you aid but I'll also imagine a neat in my head, and I'll try to speak on every fourth note if I have a good feeling. It'd crazy how speaking is so simple for most people. ...

Something that happens with me is I will play a beat in my head and on every fourth beat I will try to say the word, but sometimes I feel it isn't going to come out well, so I just wait until the next...

I'm aware everyone's stutter is unique, however I also block to the point of pain. I have found that the Easy-onset approach helps me sometimes in those situations. Def not a cure and I do think I sou...

I'm the same. Even though it's counter intuitive to how you usually try to say it. I find if I breath out and start the word half way through the breath even if it feels weird to start a "t" sound or ...

Start small, with small phrases as answers. When someone asks you a question first answer the question in your head. Then take a deep breath in, and when you take the deep breath out, breath out the...

Take ownership of your life. Believe that you have it in you to turn things around. We all do. Breathe well and deeply. Speak slow and in a controlled manner. Drugs don’t solve anything as far as I k...

Try practicing in front of people such as your parents, sibling or friend. Another trick I use is to constantly remind myself to go 4 times slower than I think I should because I talk way to fast duri...

This happens to me as well. What I do is I take a deep breath or drink some water, then continue on with what I was saying. I also try to talk slower because I find that this relaxes my speech and mak...

I say the word “like” a lot when I feel a stutter coming and shut my eyes. Once I started driving around 6 or so years ago I stopped shutting my eyes when I stuttered because obviously I had to focus ...

I understand everything you're going through. I've had a stutter since I was five or six and I always kind of hoped it would just ... fix itself. I'm 36 and it's still here. I mostly have it under ...

Just wanna touch about the phone interview I found a trick. Get naked and just talk like you would. The fact that your naked turns your mental pace into a laidback relaxed one. It's weird but it wor...

I met an SLP today- by accident- and we started talking about stuttering and he said that the way to break a secondary is to vary it. if you jerk your head to the right, start jerking it to the left ...

I totally can relate. When ever I order food in person, I focus on eye contact (I look in between their eyes) and concentrate my speech coming thru my mouth. Chin up 😀...

Hey, you know what, that might mean that you'll be able to practice various techniques with your Alexa, in so far as it counts as "regular" communication to you!...

I found making videos to be one of the best things to do as a stutterer, it's a good way to practice, you can do as many takes as you need....
