Yes, before I had a problem saying my name and I would block on it. My name started with an “A” and I blocked on vowels (A, E, I, O, U). After I did what I did, I managed to recover and now I’m comp...

It seems that his stutter isn't very severe at the moment.  Stuttering gets in the way of everything, as most day-to-day things need communication. I cannot approach a girl without making a fool of ...

I’d love to hear that. The process shouldn’t take long. You should start feeling better after 1 week or even a couple of days if you really zone in on the EMDR therapy, sleeping good, and taking a qui...

I was in high school and I had to give a business presentation in front of 300 people, and I blocked on my name. So from that moment on, my brain registered it as a very traumatic event and associated...

I believe it’s behavior based for you. Because I never stuttered my entire life until a couple of years ago. I didn’t have any head injury or any genetic issues with me. If this just came out of nowhe...

Yes, watch that ball bounce left and right on the screen, and think about blocking/stuttering so you can have that anxiety feeling in your chest. Once you have that feeling in your chest and you’re ...

Yes, I believe this was 100% my case. It all stemmed from me giving a public presentation in school, in front of 300 people, and I blocked on my name. So after that moment, my brain made a hardwired ...

I let stuttering take my teen years, my 20's and it's about to take my 30's. I've never dated, had my first kiss or held hands or any of that. I don't know what it's like to enjoy a conversation. I ha...

Me my mother and little brother and my uncle have a stutter. My mother overcame it and I have come a very long way masking it and generally improving a lot. Generally I always felt alone with my stutt...

How old are you? I've found that the older I get the less I care. Sure you can look for someone or something to blame but at the end of the day your times running short and just go with what ya got. I...
