Any advice to improve.
Any advice to improve. 21M here. I have never talked about my stutter to anyone (because I always felt shy and ashamed) but seeing people on this subreddit gave me some confidence. This post is beca...
Look, you do you. I don’t really care if you’re okay with avoiding presentations at all costs. I don’t know how bad your stutter is and that would likely play a part in this. I will say though I don’t...
i havent done anyone of them yet...i have one today not so nervous about that one. and i have one tomorrow. i've been practising and its been very fluent. hopefully its like that tomorrow !...
Hey op, how did the presentation go? You seem like you might be a lot like me, not a bad stutter by any means but still nervous about public speaking. I have a presentation tomorrow as well so I was w...
I think this is terrible advice. This is how you end up completely inept at public speaking which is one of the most important skills you can have in a professional setting. Doors close for you. You...
Mindfulness advice: * Every time you feel like **stuttering** isn’t working out the way you expected it to, or is too much for you to handle – say STOP. S – Stop, T- Take a Breath, O – Observe, P – P...
"A non-stutterer just led his words flow; it never occurs to him to anticipate his words or control how each word leaves his mouth." This is incorrect. According to research, non-stutterers foc...
"It becomes accepted that we consciously anticipate each time we'll have to talk. " I notice you are applying the definition 'fear' and 'anticipation'. Fear: In my opinion, choosing between blue...
"This statement accurately reflects that the reason we stutter is because we are afraid we might stutter." Yes. We stutter on the probability that we may stutter. This means that we have a condition ...
I feel like I’m always commenting on this sub-Reddit so I apologize if you see me everywhere 😂 I’m really passionate about my stutter as well as helping others in our community! Recently, I went on m...
Not a skilled yoga breather lol but taking a taking a deep breath helps me get the word out since I realize I take shorter breaths when I’m stuttering. It also helps as a minor stress relief since I t...
Yes. There are newer researches about this: * [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/xphjk2/what_do_you_think_of_this_stutter_research/) research is about 'anticipation plays a key role of...
We are our own worst critics, and make our fears and frustrations way bigger when they’re about ourselves. I promise you, people don’t care about how you speak as much as you do. Once you finally ...
When I was doing speech therapy, they had us practice making phone calls a lot. It was just calling places asking them how late they’re open, stuff like that. I would do some deep breathing and relaxa...
"It is a fact that we are in the habit of anticipating and trying to control that gives rise to the fear and tension which ultimately leads to stuttering" https://web.mnsu.edu/comdis/kuster/Infostutt...

Pitty How can we deal with the empathy feelings to our way of talking! I know stuttering sucks but I just heard by accident me talking in a recording and i was stunned by how pathetic I sounded! I...
My solution to this was simple: Tell my teachers/professors/whoever that I physically can't do it. My stutter gets way too bad when public speaking - So not only is it embarrasing, it's also an inacc...
If you feel confident about it, full disclosure! Tell her that you stutter to "prepare" her. You will see very quickly if she's supportive. e: I do this quite often before presentations and similiar ...
Definitely start saying the word slowly. Unless you are a very skilled yoga breather, taking a deep breath in the moment of a block (fear) will almost definitely result in a high chest breath, which ...
I feel you man, I also have a date this weekend. I just try not to think about my stutter and be in the moment. Good luck!...
