Thanks for your response. I was asking because I went for one such program at the beginning of this year. Like you guys said, it's a lot of practice. And it worked when I was there. I was almost fluen...

In my opinion. People with a mild stutter wouldn’t be on forums like these. It would be impossible to do the Mcguire course and get nothing out of it. Prior to doing Mcguire I thought I knew everythin...

Yes! This is exactly what I do. Quick wit and strong facial expressions I reckon is 90% of my outgoing personality....

This. I did Hollins Reseach Institute back in the 90s. I think it helped a lot at first but there is a lot of practicing involved but dealing with your own perspective and the emotional change is a ...

Mcguire program for a mild stutterer?

Mcguire program for a mild stutterer? Hi, I consider myself as someone who has a mild stutter - I have absolutely no problem talking on the phone with a stranger, I mostly don't avoid ordering things...

I have been through a few of these and I can say they absolutely don't tackle the emotional aspects of stuttering. I am still working on that. Physically? Yes these programs can change your stutter......

Yes you're right we have not any cure for now. But i think it's only FOR NOW. When i'm alone i'm %99.9 fluency and normally %85 fluency. I think it's all about how much percentage you are in normally....

>practiced it in my head for the minutes leading up Stutter tends to not care about what you do in terms of practice, though. :) I think it might actually add to your nervousness if you think you ...

Just had an online interview on Skype and I stuttered a lot. The interviewer didn't realize what was going on so I blamed it on poor internet connection lmao. Anyway another opportunity down the drain...

I don't know the relationship you have with your family but I can say you shouldn't just stop talking to them. Speaking from experience, that's not a good thing to do. The more you don't speak, the mo...

Yes, I do a lot of clever one-liners and such and I'm hoping that's just my personality and not because I'll have trouble speaking more than one line!...

I get it a lot, but as a stutterer I know that I am going to stutter, there is nothing I can do to not stutter(I have a block, which means speaking slow won't help) I just keep it in my brain and wait...

My mom said to my dad saying that I know how my child stutterers, how he suffers every day, even a simple conversation is hard for him.... It feels painful, I was in tears almost but I don't want the...

All the time, man. It's like you suddenly decide to pipe up, stutter over yourself then feel depressed immediately afterwards because you could've NOT sounded like a retard but ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ it's so fr...

Anyone else stick to using quick wit for humor in social situations instead of storytelling?

Anyone else stick to using quick wit for humor in social situations instead of storytelling? Since I can't really tell a story in an interesting and fun way due to my stutter, I tend to stick to quick...

Hi, the same with me. I can give a presentation for as long as I want, without the feeling that my stuttering is holding me back. I think it's because I'm speaking loudly and articulate the words prec...

>You can't cure it I think we can cure it. Because when we're alone we're speaking normally. It means we have no problem about talking with anyone. We have a problem about trusting ourself....

Hmm, how about this bit here? > stutter in that conversation or **sometimes not at all** and I have after thoughts of regret - Perhaps I could ask differently: • What's your success criteria fo...

Anyone know what’s going on with me?

Anyone know what’s going on with me? Hey guys. Stuttered somewhat as a little child. Stuttered very mildly early in my high school years, I guess a mild covert stutterer. Had one slightly traumatic ...

I am fine, thank you. I've been using a technique like that for the last thirty years :) It makes me speak more slowly, but the day to day stutter is gone. It is still there, but hidden. So, I thin...
