Yeah, I swear saying weird sentences so I avoid stuttering has got to end, even if I make the weirdest face I gotta say what I want anyway...

I started using that mindset a while ago. I got tired of being restricted so I broke free and started saying stuff even if I stuttered on them. I got tired of find replacement words that didn’t quite ...

The fact of the matter is that most people don’t really care that you stutter. And if they do end up caring and laughing in your face or something, just laugh with them. Or just walk away if you don’t...

The fact of the matter is that, most people don’t even care if your stutter. And even if they laugh at you, laugh with them. That was pretty funny, you got stuck on a word. Stick with it and never nev...

Honestly public speaking is singlehandedly the best thing that I ever did for my stutter. Confidence is indeed key...

I get you man, I tend to forget about them when taking to a stranger but what I do is remind myself, if I can do it with the therapist who was a stranger before, I can do it with a stranger. Keep work...

Yess i always try to not allow the stutter to define who i am. I applied to many universities for my Master's degree this month inspite of all the seminars and presentations i will have to give if i g...

I can feel your pain! This happens to me everyday and others think that I don't know how to speak but changing the words sometimes makes no sense to listeners....

Yeah had done it during therapy. It would work really well in therapy but when I'm interacting with a stranger outside, the stuttering and blocks come back....

Practice. Adapt. Overcome. I'm 29, and within the last 2 years 'mastered' the art of saying my own name (lol this late in the game :D) Seriously though, it's a matter of environment adaptation. You'r...

Yes, it's funny actually. I don't stutter when I read out loud to myself, but when I order food at a restaurant I do. For example at Subway I stutter when I say "mayonnaise" but I can say it out loud ...

Yeah but i feel i can only make improvement when i start interacting with more peopl and get rid of the social anxiety.. Slowly taking steps towards that. Even if i stutter my ass of i try to keep t...

Yeah. Could get my name across. Had gone for speech therapy for a couple of sessions. It kinda got worse for me as i became conscious of my stutter. Before therapy i had a don't care attitude....

Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m legit getting better at speaking. Even though sometimes I get a little stressed then stutter block out of nowhere, but I don’t care. One day I’ll overcome this insecurity at 1...

I actually remember it was a thing I sometimes explained to people, but I haven't explained it in a long while, merely because I've stopped relying on it. But we can resort to it sometimes, as a "tri...

I'm on Wellbutrin (300mg) and Zoloft (100mg). Doing a remote tour really fucked me up. Zoloft is bad for my stutter if I let myself detox because I forgot to refill my prescription. If I keep up with...

that’s very interesting!! I’m going to try and be more conscious of when I do it and focus on getting it out, you make a good point. You’re certainly right about it adding stress!!...

That's the thing... we can't keep dodging. Substitution is usually advised against. It also tends to add more stress to the act of sentence construction, when you've got several potential tracks runni...

It’s certainly a case by case, I use it in the moment when a word gets stuck coming out. I’m usually pretty quick to find a replacement but it’s hard to really know if it’ll come out smoothly before I...

Oh, you're doing substitution? Do you do this always or just sometimes when you feel like you really need it?...
