Before the presentation even begins I would say to get it out of the way and let everyone know "I Stutter". Being upfront about the entire thing that's causing the fear and anxiety for us is going to ...

Time to let go

Time to let go So I haven't been active on this subreddit for quite a while and I'm sure many others have too but I wanna share something before big changes start occurring in my life for the good or ...

Do you think my stutter is like yours ? When I lose sense of my self I speak 100 percent fluently when I’m alone I speak fluently. When I was younger I had a developmental stutter like I would repeat ...

From my own experience, it won’t go away unless the semester starts. And unless you start to interact with other people despite your stutter. Sorry if it wasn’t what you were looking for....

I feel you. Stuttering has really caused me to be selective and careful on how I interact with people when it comes to normal day to day conversations. If someone likes to speak over people, control t...

I feel this everyday. It sucks but I feel we have to keep going. I've had acquaintances I've know for years and never stuttered in front of then one day it happens and they ask me if I'm ok and that s...

Not sure if this can help but i used to work in a call center back when i was 18, taking 100 of calls people loved my voice how it sounded and i was stutter free because i was acting it was not my rea...

IMO the real answer is it doesn't matter either way. Let them finish the word for you. I do the same thing sometimes with fluent speakers too I think it's more important to be 'in' the conversation ...

A shit ton of coffee used to help me somewhat, along with reading aloud in my bedroom for several hours. Of course like any trick they stopped working once I'd had emergency situations like yours onc...

You said you did therapy, breathing exercises, and speaking more slowly and CBD oil. All of these options could be considered avoidance responses. For example, by focusing on breathing we avoid or hid...

Perhaps admit you stutter and sometimes you struggle on your name? The best answer for you is the one which probably frightens you most but you know you'll grow by doing it (give a fake name won't do ...

There's no simple cure and anything you do find that works immediately well may not last. As paradoxical as it may be, I would suggest you stop focusing on whatever sounds make you stutter. You prob...

It's up to you. Personally I would try to find out how long time users of the technique are doing (advertised and unadvertised). My opinion, is that anything which involves techniques like breathing ...

Stuttering isn't fun. But it's even less fun to mentally torture yourself. Slowly building the habit of moving on from speaking situations no matter the outcome will do you a wealth of good....

Agree with you 100%. Sounds like a scare tactic and can cause way more harm than good… - the Maguire programme I might add focuses on the importance of ‘relapsing’ and how prominent it is because it C...

"If I want to make the effort to talk without stuttering, that's something I should be able to do" But when you do that, what if you're reinforcing the actual stutter to begin with? I.e. you're doing...

I took the course also multiple times. Long story short, I don't recommend it. Here are the cliffnotes: * it's completely different from the McGuire breathing technique * with the DF (del ferro) met...

It is the same for me. I tell people i work with that I stutter as much as I can 😂 Glad you felt good about it! 🎉...

Yes that's a good one. For me I said like that: I just want to mention that sometimes my speech becomes discontinuous because I have a stutter (Pause to see his reaction). And then I continue......

Yk, I read a really helpful article last night about stuttering and talking to people. One of the points it had, which I thought was great advice, "If you show it doesn't bother you, then why should i...
