Thank you for this post! I truly felt seen. For a so-called safe space, a lot of pseudoscience is peddled. The toxic positivity in this community is horrid! If someone's "positive" outlook is so fragi...

I stuttered through most of my life until 1985 when I took the pfsp which is the Precision fluency shaping program here in Toronto. From that moment onwards my Sutter has become less and less. It's st...

There isn't a cure like an injection or pills. All you can do is manage it and live with it by accepting that you have a stutter. Some methods work some and some methods don't. You have to get along w...
