I feel you. You're not alone and as an older guy I can tell you it gets better. Especially when you stop giving a shit about the way you talk. And when you get to that point you'll stutter less. ...

There's no definite answer. My father and grandfather stuttered. Both of them "outgrew" it in their late teens/early 20s. I'm 24. I still stutter. Its mild, but I don't think it will ever go completel...

I've had stuttering since I was 5.

I've had stuttering since I was 5. Now that I am 14/15 I started to see that my stuttering had decreased over time, but I still have my doubts about if it is neurological or not. I've had speech thera...

Your not entirely wrong. But neither am I. My speech improves too, but I get to keep my money. It's called the natural ebb and flow of the disorder....

I put lot of effort and dedication on my speech to get better .but a small interaction can reset my speech back to stuttering. Now I just feel even worse and sorry for myself for putting so much energ...

Hiya! I think I began exhibiting abnormal speech at about the same age. It's been so long, so I can't quite remember, but it's a common enough onset age, I think. >I went to a lot of therapy's and...

You obviously didn't grow up with a stutter, or had a mild case. Not something you can "get over" by yourself or even with help. I saw 6 different speech therapists before I found an intensive 2 week ...

Nah, it’s different for everybody. Some people have stutters so bad that they can barely even speak. This guy has some fluency so it’s obviously a more mild stutter, but to say that this is his fault ...

Sure, different stutter behavior across languages is a known thing. But it's not a thing that's guaranteed to "overcome stuttering". It's good if you've found something that works for you, though! :)...

I'm glad you mentioned this. I don't stutter in thought, but I most definitely stutter in my dreams. It's odd because it correlates with how I'm doing irl. If my speech has been good, I won't, but if ...

I only stutter when I speak, and I don't remember my dreams well enough to know whether or not I stutter in them. It's pretty fascinating how varied stuttering is, and how everyone who stutters has di...

tldr -- Nobody knows. When you say "goes away for a few days" do you mean your stutter is having a good day or your stutter is non-existent and you are fluent? I have good/bad cycles all the time but...

My stutter goes for two weeks and comes back for a few days, then goes again. This cycle continues. Do you have any idea why this happens and do you have any advice on what I should do to reduce this ? Thank you
