SSRI meds take 6-8 weeks to really work and see any difference....

I get what you mean, frankly I’m glad it’s not seen as any other disability. I don’t want people to see me as disabled I don’t want special treatment. I could do everything anyone else could do. Mayb...

Good to hear that...

Nothing works long term. You will find some tricks that last a while but eventually your brain figures it out and its stops working. The only thing that works long term is acceptance...

He never went to speak therapy or anything so i would say it just went away on its on, my dad also stutter but not as much...

Relatable...

How did your brother cure his stuttering?...

I didn't mean it like that at all, maybe I worded it wrong. I meant that if he still has a stutter as teen, the parents should start to worry since it means its most likely for life and stutterers are...

Then you are on the right track, and as a SLP, you are now getting a crash course in fluency which you can use to support your own clients....

I used my knowledge of neuroplasticity to solve my stuttering. I sometimes forget that I ever stuttered. After a lifetime of stuttering it has been a wonderful experience to be fluent. I have never ha...

You are absolutely correct. I was thinking that I need to keep my mouth shut. I spent over 20 years researching how the brain learns. I discovered no one does what I do. I am all about the brain. Once...

bro you are commenting everywhere, but give the liks or techniques or youtube videos link or give something, don’t just show off. I am happy for you, but share your happiness....

I am just honest. If he does keep stuttering in his teens his life will be 100 times harder. That is just a fact. He can still have a good life but its gonna be very tough. This life is hard even with...

I stopped taking it. I was already on Effexor so it was fine. Speech was back to normal a week later. So weird....

I run a free online platform called Stutter-Connect where people who Stutter from around the world can speak to and support one another. I have a website and a Whatsapp group. Here's the links: [h...

As a children’s mental health professional who also stutters, I would think that teaching your child to advocate for himself would have been the very first thing you and his assigned SLP would do. Up...

This is the worst you could do^^^ If he stops stuttering that’s GREAT. but don’t make him feel like there’s only hope for him later in life if it does stop. Then he’s gonna be waiting for that day & i...
