I have "good" and "bad" months. I haven't determined what the reason is behind it but my therapist is aware and it's just something I get used to. I may have to use some of the skills I learned more d...

Worsening stutter?

Worsening stutter? Just background on myself. I couldn't talk until I was 4 years old and was diagnosed with apraxia of speech. With lots of therapy I was able to talk but I've always had a stutter/st...
