Actually, yeah, kinda same, I started volunteering which involves a lot of cold calls (calling strangers), organizing meetings and stuff, it's still something that I'm not entirely comfortable with, b...

You got this! I worked at CFA during high school and as hard as it could be (you gotta be quick there) it was really nice when I had a good stuttering day, not necessarily one where I didn't stutter b...

Self talk therapy and practicing fluid speech helped me when I was going through uni. I’m 29 now and am a high school teacher. I’m not so stressed about “curing” it or how it appears to others anymore...

100%. There's science behind this too. Human beings by default naturally want congruence. That means they want you to stay the same, in the box they have figuratively put you in. That box shapes y...

First off ... this is so amazing. Kudos to you. Your son is lucky to have such a caring parent. The rest of the advice on here is pretty spot on. If you’re looking for a holistic approach.. my adv...

haha i never really thought about it until the other day when I was asked if I wanted to move in with someone. its a good chin scratcher :) yeah, thats what i had in mind! i feel like since I'll be r...

Hey there! That's such a great question. I mean wow, I never thought about it much. I would say, since mine is very very mild, practically not noticeable, although gets worse under certain situations,...

yeah thats the same as me. I can barely say a couple words to my stepdad before stuttering. its annoying because I dont understand the reasons behind it but im glad it made you feel better once you w...

Lol, if only I had stuck to this being my burner :-p Nah, we went online without skipping a beat. We do our best, and our extended family is also _really_ good about it too. Always trying to be be...

i know this sounds like the worst thing to do but... you need to dive in to the deep end and tackle the fears face to face. Im also bad at this but im trying to work on it. You could create a list of ...

Thanks! It went really well. A little bit of a shaky voice, but I could get every word out without serious issues....

Same here brother!! I gave two yesterday and while I had my issues at times they both went great!! I’m so glad I decided to just suck it up and do both of them....

Yes! We don't actually talk about it like that all. Our family, in general, take things one day at a time and don't idealize future state. Don't want him thinking something is, "wrong" if he doesn't g...

I've had similar experiences, and maybe you can relate.... I stuttered as a kid, starting to talk around 3 yrs old till I was 6. Then the stuttering went away, but it came back when I was in colle...

We should probably think of it in the other direction: Some will outgrow it, which is a likelihood we can express in relation to a certain age, statistically. This does mean it becomes ingrown and una...

Why can’t you try self hypnosis and auto suggestions!! All you have to do is train your mind everyday with some positive affirmations. For example “today I’m gonna make a happy day” say this several ...

heey ! thats so cool, haha it got me excited! I have turned down a lot of opportunities what I had the chance to speak up and came up with excuses last minute! thank you that gave me courage. good luc...

I’m so happy to hear that you haven’t stuttered for almost 6 months now !! BRAVA. I would say that you are now habituated to fluency, you may have been in your comfort zone all these while in the lock...

Fear can be viewed as good fears and bad fears. The good fears help us protect ourselves from dangers so it is a kind of protective instinct. If a person dwells in fear for a long time then that’s a p...
