I have a loads of experience in that but only during my school times, now i have improved very much, all that insults really motivated me to become better and have a better fluency while I communicate...

Well, at least you found out that this girl wouldn't accept you with flaws. If I were you, I'd wonder why after month since 'growing distance' she got another one. But anyway, stuttering is definetely...

this can be a slippery slope. Filler words can work in the beginning, but a lot of times, our brain adapts and they dont work.l as well. And your left with a secondary behavior that complicates your...

I find it hard to do that bc the topic of stuttering (and the word itself) is usually a trigger for stuttering. Jokes really require good timing and delivery, and botching it with a stutter really def...

It's all too easy to rush through things, I'm guilty of this myself. I find the sounds I'm OK with and speak as fast as I can after that. But this is wrong and I know it. Easy onset, slow things down...

Making a joke or addressing stuttering

Making a joke or addressing stuttering Has anyone ever successfully joked about their stuttering when speaking to someone? Or maybe just addressing it during conversation? My speech therapist was sayi...

I relate to this post hard. I always wonder what my life would be like if I didn’t have this stupid stutter. About a year ago I became really close with my dream girl to the point where we were overtl...

A few thoughts... What steps are you taking to pursue fluency? It's likely not going to happen on its own. It's going to take effort. When I was finally ready to become fluent I went back to speech t...

Yep, this just bout sums up my life, it's hard not to be negative when you have a stutter, it more or less affects your life every single day,.. I've gone through life never having a proper conve...

Been there brotha. Still have the issue where it’s hard to add my 2 cents in a group conversation, especially a fast paced one. Cuz people would talk over me when I stutter. I either say it louder, ...

Yeah I know that calls were obviously answered by humans but I’m sure there were people who thought “what’s this strange voice coming from the phone”. I wouldn’t say it’s an avoidance trick though. ...

>When telephones started to become a household thing, did people used to think they were just talking to a computer/robot? No. Before voicemail and answering machines, all calls were answered by a...
