I'm not completely sure about different types and whatnot. I intended, based on my description, that people could decide if they are similar, and maybe being similar could achieve similar effects. On...

Picking up stuttering at 18 seems to be very rare, perhaps it's indeed stress getting the best of you. Visit a doctor?...

Never heard of anyone picking it up at that age. I have not ooked either, figured it would come up in something I've read or in a speaking class I've taken...Sounds like stress has just gotten the bes...

Wow, drill sergeant has to be one of the most effective methods for working through anxiety! You know I notice the more confident I am, the less I really care about how I sound, and the more fluent I...

I'll just say that if it's truly important to you, then you'll put in the work. I'm a Military Training Instructor (drill sergeant in the USAF) & I would never have been able to do it if I hadn't...

Wow, that's tough. Is your stutter tied to anxiety? I know mine is. Supposedly the best way to counter anxiety is by gradual and consistent exposure to anxiety inducing situations, but you probably kn...

Yeah I stutter more around my family. Must be from the stress and anxiety they cause us......

The only side effects I had from Buspar was a short, but severe headache about 20 minutes after taking the pill. I figured out that if I broke it in half, then the side effects were pretty much non-e...

what's new in treatment?

what's new in treatment? Hello all, Mid 30's male stutterer here. Is there any new breakthroughs going on in treatment? I have tried all the antipsychotic medications, that was the big treatment thi...

The only clear correlation I've found in myself is level of energy. If I'm jacked up, I'm basically able to power through stuttering, but if I'm tired I can really struggle. It's especially apparent w...

Same, when I'm talking in a group chat while gaming I'm nearly 100 percent fluent. Gaming (in moderation), is my way of reducing stress. ...

feelsgoodman tfw you work as a pharmacy technician and it's your first job ever and it's only been the third day and the senior tech has you do drivethrough because people only come to pick up and the...

Indeed it's interesting ! Even something as common as taking a jacuzzi can help me being fluent next day. It's a matter of stress inside your body. Hmm pretty sure the event(s) was all the way back w...

I tried propanolol but didn't find it to be helpful. I also tried sertraline which didn't change my stutter but helped with my mood so I'm still taking it (I think I have some anxiety that may or may ...

I have the same, i think everyone does by the way haha. It has to do with fact that when you're by yourself there is no pressure or anxiety and there is when you have a convo with other people. Just ...

Today was a bad day...

Today was a bad day... It was pretty bad today for me. Nothing out of the ordinary schedule, had quite a few points to make in class (in grad school atm) and stuttered through the lot of it. Repeated ...

I've noticed I speak much better after a really long emotional cry. Is this true for others? Is there any way to replicate that?

I've noticed I speak much better after a really long emotional cry. Is this true for others? Is there any way to replicate that? Hi guys, first time poster. Hoping to find some answers and share exper...

I still stutter every day, but I can work my way around it and such. It was way worse when I was in elementary school, and gets worse when I'm nervous/anxious. ...

It could be psychological, anxiety plays a big part. My stuttering has improved a lot in the past months, how is that explained from a neurological standpoint? ...

Dunno. I definitely think way too fast, but I don't know how to slow it down. I've even tried meditation. And medication. And hypnosis. I once tried taking extra vitamin B! Maybe the rant was too much...
