I moved abroad and 'restarted' my speaking. Stuttering came back when I moved back home. Can somebody relate?

I moved abroad and 'restarted' my speaking. Stuttering came back when I moved back home. Can somebody relate? **first of all I'm not ashamed of my stuttering and I know I can have a happy life even If...

My situation was similar. 3-4yr old chatterbox and then one day, bam, could barely say anything. My parents were great. They never made me feel bad, never tried to rush me and made sure I went ...

It is difficult to go through life with a server stutter. For me, I attended many SLP's with little or no help. It was not until I joined a programme for people who stutter run by people who stutte...

Hello, im a 21 lady and I have a substantial stutter. I actually have a stutter with my own name, so it's extra obvious. Mine actually started as a worse speech impediment and speech therapy helped m...

Really support her, don't be afraid to talk about it and ask her how she's feeling about it, stay on this subreddit (if you're a regular member of reddit), when she's older look into a support group n...

Your approach to the situation is admirable. For what it's worth; I think you are doing all the right things. I'm now 42 and I've been through it all growing up. Bullying, anxiety of speaking in fro...

Hello :) I am 31 years old, but that little girl was once me. I am still outgoing, spunky, social, speak my mind— most of friends describe me as life of the party. My stutter has definitely held me ba...

This is a very delicate one, but I totally understand your worries. I'm a stutterer since birth, I'm 22 now. Throughout my life, I've never found myself in situations of severe bullying due to my stut...

I’m a 22-year-old female. I’ve stuttered all of my life. When I was a child, my stutter was severe. Now, I would say my stutter is very mild. I go through periods where I don’t stutter at all, but I a...

This is a tough one, I will say. I think that my best advice is to give her the tools to be open about her stutter, and teach her to tell others about it so they can hope to be patient with her. At t...

Yeah, it's the effort that really hurts. Friendships/relationships take time and I could never bother to spend a minute trying. I also don't know if I care that much these days either....

A practical piece of advice that really allowed me to lose the fear of stuttering and enables me to express myself naturally without the constant agony of negative anticipatory thoughts, is as follows...

2nd others on the acceptance part. Not saying therapy isn't helpful and other things don't have value. They do. But I think the mental hurdle to accept it as something that is ok and not something to ...

Acceptance is huge . There comes a point in your life when you get so tired of trying to hide stuttering or avoiding situations that you stop caring and that has helped me the most. Good luck!...

Hi u/Ok_Music7549 \- Thanks for your post. I'm sorry for the difficulty that you've been experiencing. This has indeed been a tough time for many. (Seth will comment more on that aspect.) One of the ...

My story is quite similar. My stutter peaked in severity around that age too (I’m now 35). There are probably a thousand different opinions on this topic — “the way out.” I can only speak for myself....

That's an interesting question. I personally know people who have used music to help them with their speech...you might be familiar with Scatman John Larkin. He was a person who stuttered who used mus...

Oh, that's a great question -- one that people have been asking for millennia - literally. At this point, we do not have a cure for stuttering, but people are looking for ways of helping people who ...

You have the exact right angle here, mom is wrong. It’s ok to stutter. The National Stuttering Association has a wealth of resources for people who stutter looking for a job, including practice inter...
