Caught my stutter on video (realized some things)

Caught my stutter on video (realized some things) So I often have to give webinars for work. Well I had one yesterday and I had several stuttering instances that caused me so much stress and anxiety. ...

I did it!

I did it! I have severe stutter since last 8 years. It's so bad that I have problems pulling out every world. Today, I called local gas agency to register leakage complaint, and despite stuttering, I...

Hey I can totally relate with your problem, see this can be solved by following 2 steps, first is try prolonging the starting sound with more duration, what I mean by this is that if you are not able ...

Hi, thanks a lot for posting this. I am kinda confused how prolongation works. Like if I try to say "Roorkee" or "negative", I just can't get past the "R" sound and the "N" sound respectively. I don't...

It’s almost contagious. Sometimes I’ll be having blocks on a phone call and the other person will start. I feel so bad I rush off the phone....

I’ve tried adding in an uhh on the first syllable. example: B’s are issue of mine. So butter. I usually block hard on the B sound. But if I focus on saying a little prolonged buhhh I can usually sa...

Yes! I’ll get it out perfectly and clearly and then they want me to repeat and I’m like “uhhh…I….the…yeah”. Sometimes I give up and say something entirely different from my first sentence but that’s m...

Yeah, just had to repeat myself at the store, ended up holding the line up for a couple of minutes with the whole store going from bustling sounds to complete silence... Oh well, you gotta get what yo...

Happened just yesterday, I don’t know why. All we can do is ask them to shut up or say nothing . Or say what I never said anything. /s...

I've been visibly upset by having to do this. Funnily, sometimes while I'm in my speech block/stutter while repeating, they tend to recall what I had said and finish what I was about to say correctly....

Being asked to repeat yourself is the absolute worst

Being asked to repeat yourself is the absolute worst There have been a countless amount of times where I was able to speak clearly, but then the person I’m talking to asks me to repeat it, because eit...

Oh man, I feel ya on this one. I would try easy onset, like OsmerusMordax said, or replacing the ch- sound with sh-, so shicken fried shicken. M words are usually tough for me, especially if the m's...

I feel ya. I rang up somebody at work last week and it came to $5.55. I fudged it right away to make it $5 even. I can't say fifty at all....

i do this too. i say “um” and “like” a lot to fill in blocks or silence. they’re filler words and easier transitional sounds....

'Um' is a filler. I did it for quite a long time. It started as an easy way to lead into difficult words, and sounded like filling for thinking time, but the problematic part of the brain caught on an...

I'd be curious as well. I've stammered my entire life but it really only happens when I'm anxious or not talking loud and someone asks me to repeat myself. Thank you for posting this for free and not ...

I stutter more with my mom and sister because I try to keep up with their pace. They talk really fast! With my husband and children I speak slower, especially now since one of my little ones do stutt...

For me they will discover it with first call or interview as i have severe stutter 🫠...

How exactly does it make things worse? More repetitions, more silent blocks, more secondary behaviors?...

7 year old stutters and now suddenly his 5 year old brother is stuttering the exact same

7 year old stutters and now suddenly his 5 year old brother is stuttering the exact same I don’t know who else to turn to or who else to talk to, so hopefully your expertise can guide me. My oldest s...
