Do not let a stutter control your life. I was there with you. Kids making fun of me and bullying me in HS. I did have a great core group of friends and that helped but its still bothers me deep dow...

Yes it works perfectly. This is stage 1, slowly you move on to the part where you reach ‘public speaking’. It’s a slow process. If you complete his course or book it’s written in it. All the comments ...

I guess it’s that the speech therapist is aware that I stutter and acknowledges that so I’m comfortable and there’s less tension within me. I’m not gonna lie I do stutter sometimes here and there but ...

Very common. A SLP who *specializes* would understand why and use that knowledge to support your progress. (Stuttering is *caused* by trying to not stutter). Because you are allowing yourself to st...

I wish I learned that it was OK to stutter. Growing up I was taught that every time I stuttered, I failed at not stuttering. This is not helpful. The goal is not to be 100% fluent, but to be really go...
