I've seen some benefits from the program. In my experience, the key was to get comfortable speaking a little slower. This is difficult and something I continue to struggle with....

I did it almost a decade ago. It was great, and really helped me at the time. I went from being unable to speak, constant blocks that would give me migraines. To someone who could speak with confidenc...

Hey Jardonn, I'm a 35 y/o male who has stuttered my whole life. To echo what most have been saying here, like most things in life, what has helped me the most is deliberate practice around breathing a...

I'm trying to keep the eye contact but yk its kinda hard but I love you advise. I should follow the hierarchy of situations....

This is the way! But there are softer ways to get there. Were you making eye contact, or the equivalent? Start doing voluntary repetitions in a mirror, while making eye contact with yourself. Add...

There are ways. I was very quiet and am now extroverted with more control. Not all speech therapy is alike. There is hope. I have a podcast called Stuttering DeMystified and Beyond. It is on my websi...

Have you tried letting people hear your repetitions, and speaking in an exhale while making eye contact?...

Thats interesting, I have a slightly different experience. I find that the more I talk in a day, the easier speaking is and the more fluent I am. Kinda like warming up a cold instrument...

May I suggest just trying to release and exhale? Practice this in front of a mirror when alone while making eye contact, doing voluntary stutterers. Then make phone calls, adding in challenges as y...

It's a method for "unblocking" so ideally right before a vowel that you feel you are going to block on you are supposed to inhale and clench the pr-muscle, and then continue speaking on the exhalation...

Even my psychiatrist told me that my stuttering is because of social anxiety, and I focus too much on not stuttering which makes me stutter but he didn't suggest me to take anything. He told me to foc...

You need to find him a speech therapist. You could also have him practice reading out loud for about 2 hours a day. Good Luck!...

The whole valsalva thing where you release the tension by contracting and relaxing the pr-muscle, basically by clenching your groin. It's good because it's inconspicuous but very hard to master becaus...

Yeah practice speaking 'sachin' , or if you get stuck , make it 2 different words, sa and chin, it's much more easier to break the word and speak , same with sentences, break the sentence while speaki...

Hello, it didn't go away completely. It happens all the time, but it's not noticeable during small talks. Anyway, having to speak to a lot of people at my job helped, it forced me to get over my anxie...

Try to use voice modulation. If you feel that a block is coming, think about using voice modulation, e.g. starting with a low tone and moving to a higher one or vice versa. This modulation can be subt...

Being able to rehearse your answers honestly is likely to make it worse. Instead, stand in front of mirror and practice saying “I am a person who speaks with a stutter, meaning sometimes I pause/reoe...

I did course in the UK called the starfish project. It didn’t offer or guarantee a cure, however it does teach you the tools and mindset to more controlled speech. Main technique is costal breathing w...

How I became a speech pathologist and stutter... I was 4 years ago when I started stuttering. My dad stuttered too. From an early age I remember being afraid to say my name or order food. Stuttering ...

I agree to everything you have said and I have experienced it all. I put in efforts everyday to work on my stuttering at home for situations where I know I’ll stutter. So I prepare my mind for such si...
