I disagree with the first sentence. Generalising that it is almost 100% induced by fear of being judged negatively is unfair in my opinion. My speech pattern does not change when I am alone or not, I ...

1. No. I still find myself stuttering, my speech pattern does not change either. It is still harshly chopped up, with pauses in the wrong part of a sentence (sounds almost as if I was out of breath). ...

1. Yes, I don’t stutter when I’m alone. 2. If I think about it and if I’m nervous it can cause me to stutter more. But often I just stutter without thinking about it. 3. Yes, often I now or feel a b...

1. Most of the time yes, I can talk to myself without stuttering, but it does happen sometimes. Like 100x less than when I speak to other people though. 2. I've noticed that people telling me "omg you...

1. No. I speak more easily but I stutter the same way. It's even worse when I am trying to read something out loud. 2. Yes, I guess. Sometimes I speak very fluently, but sometimes I just stutter with...

I do stutter when alone. I was trying to record a audio message for a friend and I was stuttering the same amount as I do with people. I was alone in the park at that time....

Mine is back today. I'm 33... Haven't stuttered, since 6th grade. Not to get vulgar here, but this may be important. My wife just gave me a BJ and it was the best I ever had. My stutter is worse than ...

Then that very well may be your normal speed regardless of what other people say. But it also is probably because a common thing people think causes Stuttering is talking to fast so people probably t...

I've never actually thought of people who've stuttered since birth, I always thought people would develop it at young ages, it's a strange thought. I always get told I speak too fast but I think it's...

I've used this as well. Works really well but the tradeoff is being less charismatic/engaging. Its still a very handy tool. Much more effective in stressful situations than easy onset....

That's where we're different. I've had my Stutter since I was born. I know when I try to rush myself or get nervous, anxious etc it does make it substantially worse but whenever I ask anyone anything ...

Definitely do! Slowing speech and allowing yourself pauses helps so much! I was talking just a few minutes ago and instead of stuttering on the word I paused until I could say it, and it felt a lot be...

That's what I'm saying! It doesn't make any sense. Sure, being nervous and anxious DOES make it worse but it isn't the cause of the stutter. One of the causes of my stutter is I speak too fast but ...

I don't know. I know for a fact it isn't to do with being anxious for me. I could be insanely nervous or scared alone and not stutter, yet I can be comfortable in front of friends and family and still...

You should also look into cluttering. You probably don't have it, but maybe someone reading this does. It commonly occurs with stuttering, and I have cluttering. With cluttering, it's almost impossib...
