Is it possible I’m making up my stutter for attention?

Is it possible I’m making up my stutter for attention? I’m worried I’m making a conscious choice to stutter for attention. I’m 21 years old and as far as I (and anyone in my family can recall) I’ve ne...

do people know you're a stutterer? I have a big friend group and really they all tell me that no one cares that I stutter, in fact they like it when I do because they know then that I'm not holding ba...

What was your experience with speech therapy?

What was your experience with speech therapy? This will be kinda long, so feel free to scroll down to the end if you wanna get right to the point. I've stuttered and had other forms of disfluency sin...

Imo being a cured PWS means not stuttering anymore, regardless of the fact you still have troubles to speak to others or to a public. Everyone could have a lack of confidence when speaking but many PW...

Acceptance isn't an overnight thing. Anytime I read a post and someone says, "I recently accepted my stuttering" I think what they really mean is, "I recently started the journey of accepting my stutt...

A thing I just noticed, the official Royal family website doesn't mention his stutter at all, they say he was shy and reserved but no mention of a speech impediment, which is weird considering he's we...
