My speech therapist told me about accepting my stutter since it's neurological(got rid of it 3 separate times but came back and stuck around at age 16, currently 23). Even though had a stutter for las...

I don’t want to delve into which disability is the worse among being a paraplegic and a stutter. But I’m gonna argue that they are similar in a way. Like a paraplegic, a PWS can do all exercises that...

I loathe the paraplegic analogy. It's flawed right out of the gate. PWS can talk. Not fluently, but they can talk. But let's entertain it all the same. I'll assume in your analogy of a paraplegic, ...

PWS are not victims. The word victim implies that someone is the target of others. Having a disability is not easy. Things other people take for granted can require much more time or effort for some...

That’s incredibly ignorant to say. That’s like saying someone who can’t walk because they’re paraplegic isn’t walking because they can’t, but because they don’t really want too....

I found no issue with this article. I especially agree with the idea that we shouldn't hold on to one perspective approach or theory of stuttering. I think that applies on both a macro and micro level...

We're not trouble makers, stuttering is a legal disability. They don't understand stuttering, therefore we must educate those who don't understand. It is not complex at all....

But people don't think we have a genuine disability. They think we're either nervous or that we continue to stutter due to a psychological issue we ourselves keep on perpetuating, for we, I don't know...

Consider yourself lucky I guess. It’s probably something related to stress/anxiety, which can be treated. Whereas people like myself who have stuttered their whole lives… it will never go away for goo...

meh, it's just a disability to me and we should aim for neutrality imo. It's not cool to be in a wheelchair or have a palsey, but it is "okay"...

>*Is the Results option, the I'm not sure option?* Yes! >*I personal have been diagnosed with ADHD inattentive type* You can correct me if I'm wrong, from what I've read, **females** recov...

In my opinion: I think that people who stutter, frequently mix up or blur the distinctions between anxiety and ADHD. There are actually two recognized traits associated with ADHD, someone either has ...

Let me know what you find out (and I can send you the paper I found if you wish). The thing I have taken from it so far is that there are various factors, largely dependant upon the way the group oper...

That... is an excellent point, and I'm rather embarrassed to admit that I hadn't thought of that lol. Generally in the story, most side characters are off-put or slightly annoyed by his stammer, and i...

I am glad that you enjoy conversing about this with me, for one thing. Another thing that I am immediately interested in the instant I saw your response is that, since the character is based on Native...

I'm honestly honored that this post has stuck with you, and I am INCREDIBLY grateful and shocked that you spent the time to give me so many figures! That's super awesome of you, I appreciate that so m...

No. Because its a disability. If my legs were gone my true self would not be a track star no matter if that was my ideal self. You aren't doing the stutter it's happening too you not by you. Imho. Wha...

Has anyone overcome stuttering?

Has anyone overcome stuttering? I am curious has anyone overcome stuttering as an adult here ? Another question why can children overcome it but not adults (or not as easy) Surely if you are born ...

My autism causes other speech issues as well so even when my stutter isn’t that bad, people can still tell I speak differently. I don‘t know if she has any experience with autistic fans or stutterers ...

normal people usually either deny our disability or see us as half humans the people in my surroundings are divided into two groups the first see me as a normal human with low self-esteem and confide...
