I'm in your boat, constant blocks, repitions and face twitches just when I'm trying to progress in a public facing career! I hope AI figures out how to stop it in the next decade or so....

Yeah I’m sure it’s different for different kinds of stuttering. Just to be clear though, I don’t talk slowly overall. I’m not really talking about being slow and relaxed in general. I’m talking about ...

Yeah, the head nod is a life saver, I just kind of forgot about in the heat of the moment because I was trying to push out a thank you so desperately...

You have to make sound. Sound you don't want to make. You create different sounds by moving the parts of your mouth that make them (jaw, tongue, lips). Nothing is preventing you from making these move...

This is something I deal with as well. When someone holds a door for me I almost always completely tighten up and am unable to say thank you, and instead I end up nodding my head to acknowledge. I...

This is the worst part of stuttering. Not the wincing of the face. Not the social anxiety. This....

make your voice purr (try like a cat) and force yourself to slow down and be hyperaware of the muscles you use when you speak...

the stutter is a curse and unlike cursed speech it just domain expansions me and forces my body to spazz...

Is anyone sick of stuttering?

Is anyone sick of stuttering? I am. I am so sick of constantly having to think of words to immediately switch out, having to physically strain myself to get a word out because of a block, sometimes li...

Mine fluctuates pretty often. I stuttere really bad as a kid, got better in high school, got worse in college when I went out of my comfort zone, got crazy bad when I got addicted to adhd meds and smo...
