Stuttering as an adult

Stuttering as an adult So a bit of background. I am 32 years old and I have had a really slight stutter my entire life. It would usually kick in under extreme emotional stress. But over the past few ...

Well, there _is_ something wrong. But it doesn't have to mess you up. :) Suffice to say that stutter varies, comes and goes, surprises, frustrates and confuses. If you feel like it's out of control, ...

I only stutter on certain letters/sounds. Help?

I only stutter on certain letters/sounds. Help? To start, I work a service job where I go to customers home, and I find it EXTREMELY difficult to introduce myself. My name is Ryley, and it sounds more...

10 or 11? I don't remember it being an issue before then and then in 4th grade I'm taken out of class for speech therapy. It sucked through up until about 35. Generally, the older I have gotten the b...

I know i would always stutter when i was nervous, but according to my friend, i always stutter....

Started when I was 6, I think. I'm 21 now, it's pretty bad, and hasn't gotten better. For some people, they just grow out of it, but for people like myself it never goes away. No idea why. I hope your...

I started at the age of 8. Before that, I was very fluent. After 8 to 25, there were some ups and downs in my stutter. But after 25, It's become very severe. ...

Good question! It was pretty damn severe. At its worst when I was 7 and 13-15 years old. During those years I was unable to say a coherent sentence. I'd have major problems saying my name; answering...

Hello chaz. Just wondering how bad your stuttering was at its worst? I've watched lots of your videos and would never ever have picked you as someone who has ever had a speech issue...

I have been told I have to speed up but I have seen people take bad interventions by moving too fast. So far I haven't had anything bad happen and I don't see that happening. Maybe it is because of se...

Anyone have an occasional stutter? One that comes and goes but NOT in correspondence with anxiety/nerves/etc? Kind of lost..

Anyone have an occasional stutter? One that comes and goes but NOT in correspondence with anxiety/nerves/etc? Kind of lost.. Hey all 👋 I've got a question that I can't seem to find the answer for and...

Hope it can help at least one other person. I should note that my stutter displays itself as a stuttering block and not so much repetition (it is hard for me to begin the sentence but once I get goin...

I know someone who went, and the program helped him permanently improve his speech. He paid for me to go when I was 19. I remained highly fluent for about 6 months after the end of the program. I prac...

Yeah, this is interesting. >Were these self-actualizations the reason for my fluency? I don't know. (I try not to think about it too much. Chasing it isn't good.) Right, yes. Of course. Thou...

I can only guess. I journaled my thoughts the 1st time it happened in summer of 2010. After reflection, my best guess is an increase in self-actualization. In 2010, my long term GF and I were about to...

Yes, it was really something because he never knew it could be that extreme either, not remotely. He was freaked out. For like a day. (He doesn't get freaked out easily.) Then, my impression is, he...

Whoa, never knew it could be that bad. My fluctations are nowhere as extreme, I'm probably the only one that notices....

Yeah, I know someone who, if he's tired, like especially really really tired, he goes from being able to be covert, to....well, it's super extreme. I mean, minutes (and not just one, several) to fini...

Yeah, but you're a weirdo. I am just kidding, of course. But you are not typical. Some people stutter more when they are relaxed. But almost everyone stutters more when they are stressed. Except...

Well believe it or not, my stutter fluctuates daily, it starts as a minor annoyance during mornings and gradually becomes worse the later it gets....
