how do you guys meet girls with a stutter? I'm early 30s now and have been with a few girls in my late teens & 20s. I'm a goodlooking inshape guy but I never was able to approach due to the fact t...

It feels like the quick panic and surprise throws me off to the point where I sometimes need to remember where I was going with this. It's like someone accidentally throwing a ball at you and it surp...

Once I realized I could say my name without a problem anymore I also realized that half the time the moment they ask for my name I stutter on the first word..like "my." But I'm not really stuttering ...

Open discussion: How did we create stuttering anticipation?

Open discussion: How did we create stuttering anticipation? Let's consider a hypothetical feared letter /P/. How can people who stutter (PWS) create stuttering anticipation on the letter /P/? Based o...

Yup. Exactly the same as me. Its basically an intense fear of failing speech. This intense fear for failing speech, is ironically what makes us stutter or "fail speech". It's this anxiety loop we get...

This is so incredibly accurate. I can almost hear the voice in my head before I start stuttering telling me that I’m about to stutter lol....

Has anyone tried Pregabalin/Gabapentin for stuttering?

Has anyone tried Pregabalin/Gabapentin for stuttering? They are both used off-label to treat anxiety, so some of you may have experience with them. And did it help?...
