A few questions I have for fellow stutterers

A few questions I have for fellow stutterers You don’t have to answer all of these, just answer the questions you feel called to answer! 1. How is your self image? How has it changed throughout your ...

I'm down for an honest conversation. You are most certainly allowed to be sad or angry. No where did I suggest otherwise. How much of your time are you spending sad or angry? That's something only yo...

You’re more than your stutter

You’re more than your stutter Stuttering can feel relentless. It’s constant and it shows up every time we speak. That’s reality, and that’s okay. What’s not okay is replaying those moments in your he...

Hmm. So I’m 35. I still stutter. And I get where you’re coming from. I also get what the OP is trying to express. Of course, everyone’s condition is different and nuanced. For myself, I’ve found that...

It is horrible, but it's also one of the only ways you can try and force to improve your speech. I still think I speak horribly while I'm presenting but I've improved a lot just by doing them....

From my experience, don't try to avoid it. Practice 100 times, try, fail, try again - this way you grow and get confidence....

I agree with what you say 100%. I will go with the presentation as I planned. Thank you for your words of advice! And very true what you say about actual dynamism, I did not look at it that way but I ...

whenever I'm speaking, i think to myself I'm superior to this person(not in a bad way) and be confident, but that helps me a lot....

I remember a presentation I did in high school. I was absolutely bricking it. Had to do it. No choice. This was about 30+ years ago. I got up. Did my presentation on boxing. One of the few times I con...

Congratulations on this achievement, I truly believe stuttering has more of a positive impact on people that the negatives we associate them with. People might indeed learn a thing or two, not just ab...

Thanks a lot Dan, it wasn’t easy getting to this point, and no ignorant professor will stop me here. I wish you the best of luck in your journey! Xx it is not impossible...

I just want to say, you absolutely *should* go ahead and present exactly the way you always do. Those blocks are a part of who you are, and they don’t make your presentation less valuable. If anythin...

I recently gave a talk where I spoke for 40 minutes in front of about 100 people. Right now, I'm in a period where I stutter on almost every single word (blocks or repetitions). In the end, people lo...

So why there is no new ways to improve fluency? No pills, no breathing techniques, nothing. A stutterer can only rely on self. When they can't discover cure for stuttering or baldness for decades, a...

Don’t be silly! I’ve got two amazing daughters who are smart AF and do not stutter at all. Live your life to the fullest!...

This worked for me!

This worked for me! So im a huge dexter fan (its a tv show). In that series he is a vigilante serial killer who lives with a code like, #1 never get caught, #2 don't kill innocents, etc... So i made a...

How would you interpret a person who stutters being able to achieve complete and natural fluency through intensive fluency shaping intervention (only with motor-based exercices) ?

A gentle note

A gentle note This isn’t a “my story” post. I just want to put something gentler in the feed for anyone who needs it today. I read the posts where stuttering feels like it’s ruined everything. That pa...

I'm gonna be honest with you I have nothing left to lose except of my soul and the only thing it makes my heart feel okay is that not accepting it and I don't really care if people think I'm victimizi...

Probably only way to fix stuttering(for me)

Probably only way to fix stuttering(for me) I had speech therapy when I was 8. At that age, I didn't care about anything because I was just playing Roblox, so I wasn't applying this therapy. The thera...
