Placebo affect. You could always do it. You just tricked yourself into thinking you need external stimuli. We can all do it. Its not complicated and you dont need to do all that. Plus keto diet fart...

This is it. It’s a mental thing. Relating stuttering to a diet is just crazy incorrect imo...

Hi,  I am interested in your post.  There is an interesting paper by Prof. Eric Jackson (NYU), “Adults who stutter do not stutter during private speech”, Journal of Fluency Disorders 70(2021) p. 10587...

Totally agree and only person I have seen on tv that actually did stutter was David Rogier, CEO of master class and Lazaro’s Arbos from American Idol. Both have dozens of clips on YouTube showing them...

Saying 'No one cares about your stutter', is just a way of dismissing or invalidating the lived experience of stuttering with all its challenges and difficulties. Often it's well-meant, but it's wrong...

Great comment! Let's use the definition: Stuttering can be categorized between primary symptoms and secondary symptoms. The traditional view of primary symptoms is blocks, repetitions and prolongation...

How do you view primary stuttering? (which I think is one of the most crucial topics !!!)

How do you view primary stuttering? (which I think is one of the most crucial topics !!!) Unfortunately there are way too many research studies about stuttering. (All my own research posts are merely...

This is a valid comment. A scale just means a measurement of a specific experience or behaviour. In this case I’m measuring how adults who stutter experience the symptoms of stuttering. Most measure...

Submitted. But what do you mean by a scale? Its too complex to be put on a scale. That's the problem with all of psychology and DSM. Life is a spectrum, not a scale....

I think a lot of people naturally lump us together with neurodivergent people, but thinking that way doesn’t even make sense. You wouldn’t assume visually impaired or hard of hearing people are stup...

I’m a big fan of eugenics so I would say yes, but only for people with stutters that make a negative impact on their life...

I have a child. She does not stutter. Eugenics are not the answer....

I’m very much choosing not to have kids and that is one of the reasons, yes. But let’s not get all eugenic-ed up in here, okay?...

this! as a society, i feel like we should focus on accommodating people with different types of conditions and disabilities. science and technology are so advanced now. everyone deserves a chance at l...

Abso-fuckinglutely.. Yes. This world needs more PWS speaking out. And with confidence. To say someone shouldn't have children because they have a disfluency in their speech is fucking ludicrous. I'm s...

I stg there a self-hating post that lowkey in favor of eugenics on this sub every fucking day. Your stutter is not a life-stopper and your grandkids won't hate you for them having a stutter. Encoura...

Should people with a stutter have children?

Should people with a stutter have children? Do you believe people with a stutter should have kids? Even those with a severe stutter? Stuttering is mostly genetic so there is a good chance their kids w...

Perhaps he sees stuttering as a neutral trait- like having red hair or a deep voice...

I mean…you can use this same analogy to describe every other disease. People are walking around with cancer and genetic illnesses and hormonal imbalances. Stuttering is not unique in that sense. Every...

That’s one perspective for sure. What if it’s a way of saying that stuttering isn’t an imperfection actually?...
