I don't think reading out loud to yourself is going to help any. Most stutterers never stutter when alone anyway. The one thing has has helped me some is gentle onsets, an exercise I learned from a ...

Some things that help me - 1) pretend I’m talking to myself, 2) lower my volume, sometimes to almost a whisper....

One great takeaway from Lee G Lovett's book on stuttering is to overwrite "stutter memories" with "fluent memories". It's simply, "Listen to yourself speaking fluently" --> "Feel confident that yo...

Funny stutter story i had

Funny stutter story i had i was late for my bus and i ran to the bus stop. i missed it . then i started walking to school and a guy in a scooter offered me a lift. i got on the scooter and he started ...

Yea a feel you man, reading outloud is often a set back move. I'm assuming you are more fluent when you by yourself or talking to a pet, maybe you don't stutter at all. And that just proves you don'...

This is a really good post. I stuttered and blocked from the time I was 6 or 7 through my 20's and beyond until I realized one day that I didn't stutter when I was alone, only when I was trying to tal...

Yes, it's funny actually. I don't stutter when I read out loud to myself, but when I order food at a restaurant I do. For example at Subway I stutter when I say "mayonnaise" but I can say it out loud ...

Damn i really felt pain when you were blocked on that word, i don't know if it happens to you but everytime i hear a stutterer blocked on a word for a while it start hurting for some reason, maybe bec...

If you don’t mind me asking, what do you think caused your stutter? I ask because I went 2 months stutter free back in 2012 and then one day someone made fun of my super minor stutter, and it ended my...

Yes I agree! The emotional reaction was so important to get rid of. I also remember key friendships and romantic relationships that changed my perspective. Came from a loving family but it was those o...

Mostly mental for me. I like to spend some time each morning reading aloud alone bc I am very fluent when I am alone. It reminds me there is hope....

I stutter a bit when I speak English but when I switch to Spanish I literally stutter and stammer to high hell, I honestly don't know how to fix it. However when I am alone I can speak both languages...

No, I don't stutter when talking out loud and no one else is there, or when reading something out loud....

Seconded. It's all about the mode of performance we're in, I find. Kinda interesting in and of itself. If you record yourself, do you also stutter? Does it make a difference if you don't intend to s...

If I am talking to myself to practice something I need to say in front of someone else, my stuttering tendencies still remain....
