Well, you probably know that you can't really interfere with your unconscious part so you can't do that much. But i think being more confident would help pretty much. If you try to talk as much as pos...

Just had an English speaking exam

Just had an English speaking exam I surprisingly did really well! Only stammered a few times near the start and after that I spoke really fluently Definitely giving me a lot of hope of improving in t...

Aye Avi respect bro. I’ve had many of the same experiences as you and my stutter was way worse when I was younger. However I learned to embrace it instead of fight it. My speech became much more fluen...

Life gets better after school. People saying school was the best time of their life are looking back with Rose tinted glasses. It's hard but start doing little things to improve your life and things w...

I wouldn’t say that I’ve *overcome* my stutter, but I’m at a point right now where it’s mostly under control. I still stutter every day, and everyone who’s close to me knows this, but I’d venture to g...

Find You’re Fluency

Find You’re Fluency (This post was inspired by a dream I had after receiving a lot of positivity from this sub) I think the answer to true fluency is finding your voice through a separate medium. I...

I’m in the same place. I graduate in about 2 weeks. I’m a covert stutterer like you. I’ve become adept at hiding my difficulty, and I’ve never been to speech therapy, it’s too expensive. For a long ...

It's not too late to start some of those things before you graduate! Have a conversation with your roommate today, or go to a social activity this weekend! Just focus on taking little steps...

Hi bro I can get you totally. I'm a graduate student who is studying in the U.S. now and have a struggling time last year when I prepared the Tofel test. Due to the obvious blocks in my speaking part,...

Stutters helping stutters- Non profit advice?

Stutters helping stutters- Non profit advice? Hi everyone! I’m looking for some advice into somehow getting into an organization or possibly starting my own organization to help fellow stutters. I w...

Your classmates are wrong. This was a victory for you! You should be proud of yourself. It takes a lot of courage to give a presentation, even for fluent speakers. You didn’t screw up anything. You cr...

Yeah being calm definitely helps a lot, but I think the main issue here is self confidence. You mentioned that you would get really uncomfortable before you spoke, that’s going to make it really hard....

Honestly, it just takes time and becoming comfortable with your stutter. It is not an easy process. And I understand your frustration particular to your major; I'm a STEM major as well. If people thin...

Let it out if you need to. But don’t feel despair, we’ve all been there. If you’ve had speech therapy, don’t forget that there’s an emotional side to it too. Speech therapy is good to overcome stutter...

I've been there man. Maybe you should try counselling to help cope with the stress and gain a little acceptance. Even if being less stressed about it all the time doesn't improve your stutter. Still S...

No expectations. Do the best you can in each moment and that is enough. Sometimes you will speak more and sometimes less. Sometimes better and sometimes not so well. Shoot even people who never speak ...

The most important thing is figuring yourself out. Everybody can wait. Go to the gym, running, biking, or do anything to improve yourself. Go sight seeing, try new food, take up classes, and see new p...

it was 20 years ago for me so keep that in mind. I don't remember much of anything (perks of being a stutterer I think maybe) but I know it was a game changer in terms of getting the chip off my sho...

good and bay days

good and bay days today was a good day for me that I thought was gonna be much worse. Anytime I know I’m gonna have to speak up in class I start to go into a long stretched out fight or flight mode a...

There is hope man. I was a similar situation as you at that age. A real NEET with a severe stutter, social anxiety and a depression. Now 12 years later I got a masters degree, a loving girlfriend and ...
