Sorry work keeps me busy! I don't move my mouth when I write but maybe I'm thinking about it to much. It just sucks like if I have to sign my name and someone is waiting ill start and then just be stu...

Stutter writing?

Stutter writing? Sounds weird but I can't find much about it online. I've had a stutter all of my life that comes and goes depending on my current stress situation. Weed helps me stay calm and while I...

Have you actually heard the child stutter yourself? You've mentioned mom's concern but not necessarily your experience with your child. Is this frequent? Most kids will grow out of stuttering by 5-6....

I had a therapist that really helped me with blocks. It takes practice but is doable. When your lips/tongue block…concentrate and push air through them to start the sound. It does work..if it is ha...

Thank you! Yes definitely, I will try to explain step 3 on the non-stutterer's side. Step 3 is where non-stutterers (subconsciously) place the articulator position. For example, if they want to say t...

Yeah, definitely seems like the case for me as well. When I get cold which is almost always in Winter, my mouth won’t move as well and I kinda start shivering a bit which makes saying words a lot har...

Tbh make eye contact with him, encourage him when he's talking, (i am pretty sure you know all this) and if you are sitting with him, ig touch his hands or his shoulders, or his legs, that helps me al...

We get stuck and stop breathing, and then we get more tense. My homemade theory is, that if we can keep breathing, it keeps things loose....

In my opinion: I consider two different '*articulatory tensions*': * (1) tension from physically tensing the speech muscles, or * (2) tension from air pressure alone By definition, everyone, even...

How do you see a block with less tension? Is it really so effective as most PWS think it is? I'd like to hear your opinions

How do you see a block with less tension? Is it really so effective as most PWS think it is? I'd like to hear your opinions ...

In my opinion: If we block on a feared word (like on our name), then it's subconscious. My argument is, that if I block on: "M-M-M-M-My name is", then in this case my articulators freeze, and don't c...

i would best decribe it as your breathing is not lined up with your vocal cords. You just have to physically push some words out to say them...

I would describe a speech block as: * a block is the halting of speech muscles (like lips, tongue, jaw, laryngeal or respiratory muscles) mechanically speaking * inhibiting execution of motor moveme...

Hey. Sorry for taking so long. Been very busy. I mean I stutter while moving my fingers on the guitar. Playing the actual instrument. My fingers get stuck and I can´t play the next note. It´s the sam...

I normally avoid making specific speech therapy technique suggestions, as I believe that programs are effective. Programs include techniques, but the techniques themselves don't yield lasting results ...

I hope not!! I know that I have a higher chance of going back to normal than not but it’s been 18 days and I see no improvement. It truly those speaking was already hard enough having a working face l...

Is it permanent? I had it as well but my face went back to normal in a couple of weeks. Having half your face paralyzed makes everything more difficult....

I did therapy in school, then I also went to a doctors for therapy sessions. They were good I guess, they taught me some techniques. But it didn’t really help. Even tried that mic thing you put in you...

It's opposite for me. The more I hear myself stutter, the more it stays in my mind (embarrassment is diff thing here), and I stutter more :/...

If the tensing of muscles cause fast exhalation alongside then Im bound to block. Why not do all techniques simultaneously? Like breathing and combining it with what you already do. Just throw everyt...
