Just like [kaebehn](https://www.reddit.com/user/kaebehn/) said, when I say something fluently and I get asked to repeat myself, i always stutter when repeating 100% of the time, it's weird. I'm not s...

Why do I stutter worse one week and the next week I barely stutter?

It's hard to compare with any because it is a so-called "hidden disability". If you see a person with no legs in a wheelchair, you already know that running the marathon is out of the question. If you...

I remember reading about this one blind stutterer when asked which disability was worse, he said stuttering because of the stigma and shame around it. I think the minimizing like you say is quite inv...

Wow I really relate to everything you’ve expressed here! I’m 33 and have stuttered since I was about 4. I’ve hidden it using the same tactics as you from almost everyone I’ve met except for a couple v...

It's normal for a stutter to fluctuate and when it does, it can create a feedback of look of anxiety, stress a tension. Look at your life and your worklife. Is there anything unusual going on? Anythi...

I'm with you on the feedback loops. Especially when it comes to avoidance. There are certain sounds that are a real problem for me, and the more I avoid them the more fearful they become. Thus more te...
