Success story: Best man speech went amazingly well.

Success story: Best man speech went amazingly well. 2 months ago my brother asked me to be the best man at his wedding. At first I was shocked as he and I are not really very close. I'm his oldest bro...

Thanks for sharing, I've also been blocking on certain words lately. And the no stuttering when drunk thing, I was wondering if that was common. I think my stutter is anxiety-induced as well. From wha...

Yes. Stress is surely a big problem for all of us, and a big cause of stuttering! but my key question was how comes that i get fluent in those situations, hence the name of this post. Thank you for yo...

I used to be that way all through grade school too. When I started college, I started stuttering during presentations and other public speaking opportunities, too. I think stress and the general feeli...
