I do it too. But so do fluent people. I think it’s just a part of human speech and it’s unrealistic to think it should be eliminated. We shouldn’t aim for perfect fluency because perfect fluency does ...

I been there too. But who cares? We stutter. Ok. Just try your best and that's all. In reality, people have their problems and they don't give a shit. Focus on your life. I know that's hard sometimes ...

It can cause damage. Whispering does put a strain on your voice that normal speaking does not. However, I understand what you mean. Whispering seems to trigger a different way of speaking - as if we'r...

The thing with whispering is that if people can not hear you they'll ask you to repeat what you said, my personal experience is that if I've got to repeat what I say it's twice as hard to sa...

I have so much to share but I can’t stand the sound of my own voice or the thought that others can hear it.

I have so much to share but I can’t stand the sound of my own voice or the thought that others can hear it. I have always thought that when I’m finally in a safe space/environment where I can stutter ...

The best rep for us cold and stuttering hoes 💕...

I have problem with words starting with "K", it's new for me and I have it since I have went to university this year. but I have found that if I think stuttering is ok and courage myself to say it, it...

In western, modern society it is normalized for the most part. Most people know what it is and don't view it as some embarassing disability. The best advice I've ever received about my speech is to a...

I hear what you’re saying....but they are right you know? We are constantly worried about what people think of our stutters....”they must think less of me because I stutter”...”why do they even like h...

Eh it's not that bad tbh, if they normalize it then people would quit asking me "why do you stutter?" And telling me to "stop stuttering for attention", "speak clearly" and other various variations of...

At least in my circle, when these people say that it's not a big deal, they just mean that I won't be judged negatively if I stutter in front of them. They're giving me carte blanche to stutter whenev...

Well, it's not 'nothing', but in the overall scheme of things, it _isn't_ a big deal. Stutterers struggle and suffer far more than those around them who don't, of course. But part of that is e.g. our...

Of course! We don't want stuff around that we don't like. That's the same way for all of us. There's all sorts of stuff that annoys me about myself, and stutter is part of it. But I don't want to let...

My dad digitized all of our home movies.

My dad digitized all of our home movies. I'm sobbing at little jaybyday push through words like a fucking champ. I don't think it ever got better, but I manage the stutter better now. Also, I love th...

Seeing that you started stuttering when you were 16, which is really late in life, I think that you should definitely aim for fluency. Unlike you, I grew up stuttering (mildly), but like you, I was fl...

A breakthrough...

A breakthrough... Whilst practicing various techniques today, I find one that helps more than any other I’ve tried during my 20 years on this planet. Change the pitch of your voice to be lower (just ...

A positive story

A positive story Hi all, I have been lurking on here for a little bit now as a way to see what other people go through with their stutters, and it has been great to see people going through the same ...

This a really good speech, the content is great. But this is also IMHO a great example of someone who has really accepted and/or exercises no tools or control over their speech. Thoughts?...

This person is absolutely right. Don’t get me wrong, I still get anxious but the anxiety goes down. That usually means less stuttering to boot but that’s not the point. The point is to accept it and s...

Even redoing it with a stutter but with the wisdom I have now about confidence...
