Research and free support for 4 people

Research and free support for 4 people I’m looking to collect psychological data on stuttering to inform future research. I’m also looking to work with 4 people over a 3 months period through traditio...

**In your own experience, do you speak fluently, stutter less or there is no effect, if you speak when you are alone?** According to [research](https://ahn.mnsu.edu/services-and-centers/center-for-co...

Somebody was asking almost the same question in this sub before, so I've copied my answer about my experience here. Rehearse your words and behaviour in advance, this is the first and foremost. Also ...

Yep. The majority of stutters are neurological in origin. Therapy might give you techniques to speak more fluently, but won't cure it. I wish more people with stutters were aware of this, so they coul...

It sounds like you've had quite the journey with speech therapy, and kudos to you for acknowledging the progress you've made, even if it feels temporary at times. I totally get where you're coming fro...

I have done everything that was required and everything that the speech therapist instructed me but this has led me to nothing, I have not been able to find out why and neither has my speech therapist...

You're responsible for your progress. In fluency, and in every other aspect of life. If you're not making progress, you have to figure out why. It could be the therapist. If so, seek out a differen...

Last thing first... The CP comparison is bogus. Pardon my rant, but I am tired of seeing stuttering compared to CP, being paraplegic, or blind. These permanent conditions are not comparable to a speec...

Not sure if the finger tap is related to a part of the program I went through... Part of my fluency program was learning to speak fluently through a monotone, mush-mouthed, method. This wasn't the en...

I have been with this speech therapist for 2 years and 7 months and I have’t made even 1% of improve, only the opposite, she taught me some techniques but they only work when i do tasks and not with h...

Answer yourself some questions... Why don't I want to continue with this speech therapist? Did I give it a fair shot? Did I buckle down and do the work? Was I honest with the therapist? If you are ...

My stutter developed last year of high school and became severe for my whole 20s, so that was my shittiest period, it cost me a lot professionally and emotionally. Apparently, my stutter was based pur...

My speech therapist gave me worksheets to do. It was reading those worksheet sentences. Using the fluency that I have been taught. That last sentence doesn't really convey things properly. The same ...

Speech therapy requires practicing on your own. I often make the analogy of someone who takes piano lessons. If you don't practice daily, you are never going to learn to play the piano fluently. Spe...

Has anyone here had long-term success with fluency-shaping strategies?

Has anyone here had long-term success with fluency-shaping strategies? I.e. you incorporated stuff like light contacts/easy onset without your stutter coming back as strongly. And if so, did this hap...

Idk how to move on from this

Idk how to move on from this I have been to the speech therapist for a long time, 2 years and 7 months, and I have not made any progress, but my speech therapist insisted on me to stay with some nonse...

Yes I did, and yes it helped a bit. I can confidently say that it's gotten a lot better than how it was 10-5 years ago. However I didn't go to speech therapy for long and I wasn't constant. I'm sure t...

Does psychotherapy work?

Does psychotherapy work? Currently doing professional speech therapy but I was told to work on my feelings. I know this question was asked before but please I want insights....

Stuttering support group! Yeah I've been going on there for about 5 months now. Its helped alot since cuz percent time to practice your technique or whatever. I'd highly recommend to anyone who stutt...
