yes, speech therapy works to an extent if you continue to practice the techniques you learn but the rest of this is just unhinged ranting about manifestation/manifesting fluency with unrelated and unh...

Visual-Deer I'm pulling for you. It's more important that the therapist is fully licensed and advanced in their qualifications. My current therapist, the one who helped me is a Ph.D. In psychology, a ...

Yes! I had an abusive childhood that caused me trauma all my adult life, which I had never sufficiently dealt with. After addressing my deep feelings of anger and betrayal in therapy, I became totall...

I did for me, only as an adult though, as a child I don't think I truly understood what it was about....

Sorry, but not really. Go back to the piano lessons analogy. It's not a perfect analogy for stuttering and fluency, but I think we can stick with it to answer your questions about what specific point...

It's totally your choice whether you disclose or not, but I sense mix signals and contradictions. You "kinda figure" and "assume" your friends would bring it up/know that you do, but you also activel...

Thankyou for your reply :) It feels comforting to be understood on that. I am actually no longer living in the UK. I'm in Ireland now, but some good news is I'm reaching out to different therapists fo...

I'm glad I could help with that and I am also relieved to hear your son's been having therapy since age 4. That's much closer to the recommended age for it to be effective! I believe you have done th...

Yes. Yes, it can make a tremendous difference. I had a severe stutter until my mid 20s. From as early as I can recall, I stuttered. I had speech therapy through the public schools. It didn't help. ...

It depends on therapy, therapist and the individual who receives the therapy. Too many variables to answer this question with yes or no....

I know some people on this subreddit don’t like this answer. It sounds like you need to work on acceptance. Your stutter may improve or it may not but either way life needs to go on. Therapy might be ...

You are so right. You are obviously an amazing person. Congratulations on defending your thesis. About online speech therapy for stuttering, I've never found it but I think the interaction with the t...

I had the same issue. Anxiety plus my stuttering caused great depression. After 65 years of trying various psychotherapy and speech therapy, I found the right psychologist who dissected my traumatic c...

Where do you live and what is your primary language? I only ask because your English and spelling see so good. I'm 76 years old, stuttered from the age of 5 and at 70 I fully recovered. My stutter wa...

Hi. I'm Sue. I stuttered from age 5 until I was 70. I spent years learning about stuttering. What you’ve described doesn't sound like what I recognize as cluttering other than the rapidity when excite...

Hi, I'm Sue I used to stutter and I.no longer do. I'm now 76 years old and I stuttered from age 4 until 5 years ago. I did all kinds of speech and psychotherapy but nothing helped until my most recen...

my family never made it a huge deal so i was never embarrassed about it. With time my stutter has gotten better now I’m 24 and have my stutter pretty under control. I never went to speech therapy but ...

This is what I was looking for, my son has been going to speech therapy weekly since 4yrs old, there is no reason for us to stop and this just solidifies this mindset even more. In terms of how we tr...
