Phone stutter

Phone stutter Hey guys, just started following this sub. I've been dealing with an embarrassing phone stutter for about a year and a half to two years now. It happens every time I go to answer the pho...

When I ask her if she has a problem with my stutter, she said no. The first time I asked her out if she wants to hang out, she said okay. We started talking and laughing. I wasn't stuttering that much...

sometimes I just have fluent moments because I’m practicing slowing my speech rate and controlling my breathing. I’m always out of breath when I talk and a lot of the time when I first try to produce ...

This happens to me too. I use to have a friend who said she find it hard to have conversation with me because I don't always let her finish before she ends her conversation. She knows I stutter. Both ...

When you're being "fluent", are you achieving fluency by world substitution or something? If you're still trying to control your stutter in fluent periods, maybe speech comes off as odd? Or maybe you ...

I got through something similar. I start with "see" then I converse. I don't do that anymore. I still stutter but its less now due to the fact that I went for speecheasy session....

that’s not what is happening. I do get along with these people a lot of the time. They’re friends. Sometimes I’m just ignored for no reason when trying to make conversation when I KNOW I was heard....

I actually like it when people ignore me. The less I have to interact with them, the better. But I don’t really have that problem, my job is dealing with a lot of customer support and I can’t just ign...

I feel you on this one. I'm just as puzzled on why this happens, but if I were to make a guess.. I believe it could be due to how long it takes us stutterers to deliver our thoughts properly, which ca...

All if the previous posts are spot on and I would like to add my 2 cents. I use buffer words too "hey", "hi", and I know it is a crutch so I also incorporate diaphragmatic breathing to help start a ...

I have a disorder called speech cluttering, it sounds very similar to what I go through on a daily basis maybe you should look into speech cluttering. It's not so much stuttering even though it can be...

Yes of course! Speech cluttering can actually link alot with stuttering, which is why it took me so long to figure out what I actually had. Types of stutter though, can involve: insertions (ums and uh...

Yes and lots of repitions for words, mine mainly includes insertions like "ums and uhs" most of the time but it can include blocks too...

Every time I talk to somebody my first words are gibberish.

Every time I talk to somebody my first words are gibberish. When I start a conversation with somebody it feels like my mouth is revving up from not using it. It’s like my mouth has to throw out some g...

I definitely stutter on my name. It is common stutterers. I've realized that i stutter on the idea of my name, not the sound it begins with. Some have legally changed their name, only to find they beg...

Does anyone else feel a barrier/wall

Does anyone else feel a barrier/wall I used to find it difficult to speak without repeating letters, but now that my stutter has got better I only do harmlessly, mainly when other people are interveni...

Hey OP, thanks for sharing - I identified with a lot of your stuttering experiences and even some of the life ones. Good on you for putting yourself out there - with AA, with counselling, for going b...

Hello! I'm a 25 yr old in the US, trying to come to terms with the nature of my condition. Here's my little story of very high anxiety, depression, and the search for what resources could be right for me. It's really been something so far and I'm happy to put it out there, share, and get feedback
