I do have a note from my speech therapist that I used in high school to do my presentations alone, but not sure if this is possible in university. The examiner said he has been working with me for a ...

Please seek out a therapist to help you. ❤️ But in the meantime, and because finding one can be a daunting task, look at my recent post here w lots of links from credentialed speech therapists with ...

Please hold on. We stutterers all go through these very low and seemingly impossible times. I know that in my case medication and therapy allowed me to survive, and even cope. Reach out to our group. ...

I would encourage you to get help. There are a lot of crisis helplines (ironically difficult for us to use) that could help you to reframe the problems you are facing. You are holding down a job whic...

Have you gotten yourself assessed by a speech therapist yet? I just recently started my therapy, had 8 sessions in a month. I have observed some improvement in my speech as well as confidence. Nothing...

I’m simply repeating the general consensus of the SLP community, but if you think presenting your exception as a rule (despite the fact that your fluency was only temporary) is going to create reasona...

The reality is that very few who stutter into adulthood will recover. There is currently no ”cure” for stuttering, and I don’t think any serious SLP would promise or even overstate that possibility. I...

Obviously it’s individual, but in most cases accepting that the chances of ”being fixed” is slim to none. Therapy should in those cases be focused on learning how to deal with the impediment and matur...

It's absolutely crazy I'm still in shock. When my friend told me I thought he heard wrong or something like that but now I see it's true! The thing is, one of the guys that comes to our support grou...

I am also a former SLP student in the US. One of my profs had a stutter and taught our fluency course which I found extremely helpful in truly understanding how a stutter works/how it affects someone’...
