The advice and give to my old self: never focus on your stutter. It sounds absurd. The more I focused on it the worst my stutter was. The second thing since your parent is that when I beat my stutte...

This is a journey unique to each person…There is no silver bullet fix that will work for everyone. I am 45 years old and have always stuttered. The best thing I did was to legitimately stop caring wha...

when people see something different that takes the pressure off themselves then they focus on it, don't let them make you the center of their mockery, and by that i mean don't pay attention to them, i...

I get it OP, it’s frustrating. My heart goes out to you. I’m a few years older than you and out of college now. I still often wonder why most people get to speak with little to no difficulties and eff...

1. Keep the self-awareness experiments going. There’s a way through. At some point all this wondering will click and lead you onward in your stuttering journey. 2. I used to obsess as to sometimes I’...

It's because of you. I've noticed when I talk alone without thinking about my stutter I never stutter. Never. But the second I'm thinking about it or recording my voice I stutter. We stutter because o...

I have the same exact type of stuttering. The most disheartening about this for me is that my friends and family blame my confidence for my stuttering, but I really don’t think so because I talk to so...

This is incorrect. Speaking by yourself is not the same as speaking to others. Speaking with others is much more demanding and requires careful coordination with less margin for error of the s...

I have the same thing as you. The occasional and very random fluency blocks that result in me either making weird faces to over come them, or using filler words (my go to is “like”) to get over the bl...

There were a couple of moments in my life when my stuttering completely went away for a couple of days, at those days I was the most talkative guy in my group. Even when I am chatting online with some...

My stutter would have come to an instant halt the moment I saw him get upset. Not sure why but I do not stutter at all when I get mad. And I mean not even in the slightest. He would have had a problem...

yeah the human brain can be pretty mean to itself but if I’m being honest some of these things you have to figure out on your own, like completely look into the way your thought processes go, your hab...

you’re probably overly interpreting what the people around you are thinking, like subconsciously assuming that the vibe of the conversation is gonna be like this once you start voicing out your opinio...

Yeah just made me more focused on my stutter which doesn't help. The less k think about it. The less I stutter...

I tried speech therapy in middle school, but didn't really receive any constructive help, so I felt that it was a waste of time and stopped. When I was 20 I tried again, and got a fantastic speech th...

at some point i tried doing this, pretending that I have never stuttered and it helped to some extent but i kept getting this voice in my head that says "why are you talking this way? aren't you sup...

I’m only in my mid 20s but can relate to this. My stutter used to be a lot worse and is now manageable. And I don’t put as much effort into hiding it anymore because I’m no longer ashamed or afraid of...

> **How are you able to have a normal life?** Easily. Pretend your stuttering doesn't exist. You're ready to argue, to which I'll reply that by constantly being in situations that are stressful for ...

My life is not exactly normal but I enjoy it. My twenties were tricky but I did manage to complete university, get a degree and then a masters a few years after that. None of which helped me get a job...

yeah. I just wanna be able to say what I want and tell stories and be charming and funny but instead it’s what it is...
