Very glad to read that I’m not the only stutter who uses it. Good way to take the power out of it. I use to hate it....

Totally normal and still very encouraging! Fluency comes and goes for most of us. Don’t beat yourself up about and know that you’ll catch your stride again soon, and it will last a little longer. You’...

I tell people almost the exact same thing. My stutter only got better once I started meds and quit giving a fuck about what other people thought about it. I wake up everyday and still can’t believe...

Honestly being patient and treating them like any other person is the best thing you can do. I know personally that whenever someone brings up my stutter (positively or negatively) it makes me uncomfo...

What you’re doing is incredibly brave and so important. As Stutters we tend to live our lives in the shadows. We’re afraid tho have that conversation or ask that person out. Shame, embarrassment, se...

Thanks! I just get moments where it gets the best of me. When I’m hesitant to speak my stutter is more slower and awkward. If I’m confident it’s fast and rapid. I just wish I could always have that ra...

A gain in confidence is improvement the fact that you aren’t afraid to face speaking scenarios with unfamiliar people shows how good you are doing....

Challenging yourself

Challenging yourself I (30M) stutter. I have since I was 5 years old. I've never been okay with it. It's always been hard, frustrating. I've felt left out, incompetent, like life isn't worth living, ...

I practice everything beforehand to get the muscle memory down. I also record VO as a part of my job. When I was in speech therapy as a kid, I would read into a microphone & listen to it back with...

I’m finally accepting my stutter, this is how it happened!

My stutter is sounding more natural now that I’m not hiding it!!!!!!!

My stutter is sounding more natural now that I’m not hiding it!!!!!!! The past few days I’ve been letting my stutter happen and a big down side to that is I stutter more because every time I talk I’m ...

We stutterers should go out as a group and just have a good time knowing our own limitations. It is pretty tough otherwise...

Owning your stutter to me is just not paying attention to it. Unfortunately it’s just something that we have to deal with, and we just have to accept it. It’s okay to feel embarrassed when you stutter...

I would probably say, this is what has helped me, is to say things as casually as you would talk to yourself. More often that not, even if you find yourself stuck on a word, you will regroup quickly i...

I agree completely! The athlete shoots a ball with luck and stutterers stutter on luck from our perspective. If we stop try to speak fluently, then we won't focus on the negative thought and then we w...

>conveyed my message effortlessly Thank you! I never tried this thought "conveyed my message effortlessly" (instead of 'I speak fluently'). I always try 'I speak fluently' but I see that your posi...

I almost never thought about "trying to remove my unconscious doubt" consciously, I just read aloud, talk in my stutter-free zones and also doing affirmations (not as much as I should). I also celebra...

I was always fluent when talked to myself alone, so can't relate to that but I agree that your goals should be always specific....

I agree. ​ You said: "It reinforced my belief that I can speak fluently and with ease." ​ In my opinion, if you are reading aloud, then your goal should not be "It reinforced...

what comes out comes out. Do you mean: "whatever comes out, I don't let it bother me because I don't care about the stutter"? I agree with you. How can I think less about 'trying to speak fluently'?...
