I got some music that puts me back in a good state of mind. The worst part of stuttering is feeling a lack of control, like a snowball effect. I know it takes work but get yourself in a positive minds...

Though it triggers my stutter to the fullest I do like to talk to someone with a stutter. Feels like I'm not alone. That is doesn't matter if I stutter, no strange looks. ...

They never said they cured themselves of stuttering. They still talk about how they stutter, even today. What you found was a distraction. We all have moments where we are sometimes totally fluent and...

Hey man. I can relate to your experiences. When I was younger, I used to be this really outgoing kid. I would always want to talk to people, I would make them laugh, I was pretty social. Despite my st...

Yeah, I pretty much have a weak balance between isolation and a social life, but I think it's a normal reaction to avoid an uncomfortable situation. How is your fluency around people you talk to regul...
