Who wants to spend their whole life trying to think of synonyms and similar words? Try to not substitute And just relax. I've been having a very hard to lately and I've been seeing that if I just rela...
My short term solution: I start the sentence over and see if it flows better. My long-term solution: learning to relax the face, neck, mouth and tongue during blocks. Pretty much, if I know I have to ...
I usually avoid the words I struggle with. What I find, what works for me, is breathing before saying the word and stretching it out (saying it very slow. It works for me but I never really practice i...
I also stutter. I can control my stutter if I calm myself and speak slowly but I find it to be taxing. From the way you describe your stutter, that you stutter more when stressed, think you should wo...
From what I understand of your story, don't think there is any reason to be worried. Annoyingly, having a block once or twice with a specific word can turn into a habit *very* quickly due to associati...
I know this very feeling you are talking about. Try to raise the volume of your voice just a bit. I know this helped me tons....
I usually stutter on words that start with a constanant. My best bet on getting over a block is focusing on the vowel after the constanant. For instance saying "google", I get stuck on the g-g-g. Then...
My advice, is to inhale before you speak, and exhale as you speak. Also just focus on one syllable at a time. Nothing new or groundbreaking, but it works, a lot of the time. Congratulations, by the wa...
In a reply to my post, I described what the exercises focused on. If you Google "orofacial disorders" and "myofunctional therapy" you can learn about the problem and find specific examples of exercise...
This isn't full proof advice by any mean, but there's one thing I've discovered that helps. It's very important to inhale before speaking, and then softly exhale as you speak. Also, focus on one sylla...
Thank you. The exercises revolved around tongue elevation, rapidly saying plosive consonants, swallowing correctly, and orofacial muscle awareness. I don't know about you, but when I used to stutter, ...
Cured at 36
Cured at 36 After stuttering for...well...as long as I can remember, I'm cured. I've read so many books on it, tried countless tips, tried breathing tips, easy onset, all it. They helped to mask the p...
Breathing and pausing is good. But when the effect wears off you'll end up becoming a stutterer who does this weird thing with his fingers when he gets stuck on words, and ignoring the technique can b...
No, that would simply lead to an infinite loop of using more and more superfluous techniques, while not working on the fundamental problem; your stuttering. I find breathing exercises to be the best ...
Stuttertip: Take a very small pause (0.5-1sec) between each syllable and touch your thumb with your index finger when you pronounce the syllable.
Stuttertip: Take a very small pause (0.5-1sec) between each syllable and touch your thumb with your index finger when you pronounce the syllable. This helps creating rhythm and to slow you down. When ...
You gotta analyse what you do different at work! Once you become aware of the thing you do differently you can try to change it. Could be breathing, pre-forming, tensing etc...
Do whatever you want, you have probably worked really hard to be in the position you are in now. Don't let your stutter bring you down. Practice reading English out loud (trust me it helps)....
Tight vocal cords = stuttering (for me)
Tight vocal cords = stuttering (for me) Watch this quick video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xypKNntXJv4) and try doing the exercise and see if it helps you. I was instantly more fluent. Not perf...
