I stutterer but but get emotionally overwhelmed when I hear someone else stutter. How can I desensitize myself? If anyone should be patient with another's speech impediment, it should be me. But I tri...

Yes i am afraid of being judged and also express myself. Maybe I've had trauma but don't exactly remember what happened!...

No sweat! Yes, I feel what you're saying. It's all just so weird. Lets say I can't say 'pencil', I will be able say 'encil' without a problem. At the end of the day, I think words/letters/syllable...

Around 7 yrs old, still a bed wetter, with a Mom that had no patience for a less than perfect child. So wrapped up in the judgement of my beautiful perfect mother, that I just started having a thoug...

That's good news. It means your stutter is 100% psychological. You have no neurological problem! I'm not as lucky as you. Sometimes I stutter when I read too. There are many possible explanations. If...

Sure buddy. Few things like breathing exercises and yoga, talking slowly. I won't say techniques but a positive mindset. Earlier i had much worse anxiety issues like talking with some known person wh...
