Doesn’t always work for me but focusing on my breathing. Trying to keep my heart rate down. Also when I’m tired & anxious I tend to cram a lot of words into one breath which quickly leads to less ...

Yup, I say something before the word I cant say, like, if it's part of my phone number I'd start with a "my number is..." or just say another word with the same meaning when possible....

The problem in this combination in this is most likely the T. Since s and r are soft and t is not, the transition is hard. Try to focus the least on / minimize the t sound for a more fluent sound i th...

I totally understand you! I feel the same:( and I am starting to say no to many things because of stutter:( i dont know how to deal with it anymore...

Is anyone else socially stunted?

Is anyone else socially stunted? I struggle hard to converse with anyone. And making friends is such a struggle, I can’t talk about myself to others (I’m boring af) and I’m so anxious when it comes to...

I feel you. When I'm stuck on an St/Str word I stop and use the word with the previous one.. So if I'm stuck on "Street" I would stop and say "the-street" in one (exhaled) breath. Over the last few y...

English is also my second language, french being my native one. My stuttering was far worst in English at first but over time decreased significantly. The only solution here is to practice imo. I foun...

“St” and “Str” words

“St” and “Str” words I struggle severely with words that start with “St” or “str.” I just cannot get them out most of the time. Does anyone have any tips for this?...

I would love to but I wouldn't know how to structure it. I am keen on doing something for cluttering but maybe one day. :)...

Hey man, I feel your pain. I was somewhat forced into a call centre job last year. I worked there for a year and started when I was 18. I went into a massive dark place for a while but I got the hang ...

I agree with this. When I speak German (a language I'm learning on the side during quarantine) my stutter is terrible, like I can barely even start sentences. I can actually read German much better th...

I don’t have any academic sources for this but anecdotally mine is much worse in Spanish than in my native English. I think it’s just because those neural pathways aren’t as well-grown/defined, so the...

Why is my stuttering extreme when talking in English but I don't stutter at all in my native language? What can I do to manage my stuttering in English?

Why is my stuttering extreme when talking in English but I don't stutter at all in my native language? What can I do to manage my stuttering in English? I live in Bangladesh and my native language is ...

Maybe I should try that. It is my understanding that stutterers can often infer certain sounds that will be more difficult than others. Before going into a restaraunt, I can decide which letters/sound...

So happy to help. I quit weed for the same reason. When you can’t think clearly it’s hard to rationalize the situation...

Speech pressure and AI

Speech pressure and AI So I’m not sure how true this is of every stutterer, but when I’m alone I am completely fluent. But on the way to work yesterday I tried to get Siri to play a system of a down ...

hey man! you said that you don't stutter when you're not focusing on what you're saying? do you often think about your stutter when going to speak to someone in person? Mine gets that bad when im sp...

Hey! So I think that the fact you need to put a little something about stuttering in your report is a blessing in disguise. You could try make the report humorous and tie in that you have a stutter at...

Hey Thanks for sharing. I really appreciate it... I'm a mild to medium stutterer, but it might get severe in social situation such as meetings and presentations. I'd say my job is relatively good.....

I’ve never been fluent for a long period of time but when i’m not focusing on what I’m doing or my mind is occupied with something else, i tend to speak normally with *complete* fluency. Definitely gr...
