This!!! In no way should our stutter couldn’t control our decisions. We should not live with the feeling of keeping things inside, ever. I’m a sucker for giving monologues and articulating in specif...

Thank you very much! My actual thesis is slightly different, it’s the influence of social anxiety on rhythm discrimination, because it’s the easier to test than time discrimination. Yes, I’ve read a...

Wow, very interesting thesis. Best of luck with it Have you read any Van Riper by any chance? Or the older authors in the field. Van Riper talks about the more a person tries not to stammer, invaria...

I would say my stutter isn’t dictated by my stress level as I could stutter just as much when I’m completely relaxed as when I’m very stressed. I rather find that it has to do with how important I fee...

Stuttering only on words that start with an "ah" or "eh" sounds?

Stuttering only on words that start with an "ah" or "eh" sounds? Hi all, I've had this thing for years, but pretty much ignored it 'since it didn't happen as often in the past. But in the past few mo...

He does. I have the same thing he has due to the fact that my brain is faster then my mouth. Stuttering is more abt being nervous or just not taking a breath. I have it to a certain level as he does a...

I don’t know man. This is just my experience - a lot of people have seen great results with speech therapy, so it might just work for you. It just made my stutter worse. But this thumb/index thing a...

Glad to hear that speech therapy have been helpful. I think you misunderstood my comment about speech therapy though- I have definitely had great results with speech therapy myself. I still stutter bu...

Hey, that’s good to hear, I hope you continue the positivity! And I am sure you will do great! How have the speech therapist been? I have tried several, have attended the McGuire course and generall...

There are certain fluency shaping and speech modification techniques that apply here, such as Diaphragmatic breathing, bouncing, etc. Don't think about it too much, it's just one presentation, I'm sur...

Really happy for you! Tjuu if a happened to me in College. For some reason my critical discourse speeches went just fine !...

are there more than one reasons why people stutter?

are there more than one reasons why people stutter? My stuttering problem isn't as serious. It's true that i stutter all the time, but I'm usually able to stop it in the middle of sentence and start o...

If I can't express myself than what am I good for?

If I can't express myself than what am I good for? I'm a university student who wanted to achieve high grades to prove to people that I'm smart and not dumb because I'm quite most of the time and stut...

You can't be mean or authoritative when you are a stutterer

You can't be mean or authoritative when you are a stutterer I think I lost 2 things due to my stutter: * Being "mean" - I don't endorse mean / arrogant people, but I feel like I don't have the freedo...

Ah ok gotcha. I was misinterpreting what you were saying. One thing I notice with my social circles is that since ppl know me as kinda quiet (but not shy) in groups but talkative in one on ones, th...

I find the opposite of this! When I have a good joke or comment that I wanna say so badly cuz it's really funny or clever and I want a reaction, I get so much anxiety knowing that I'll probably say "...
