I stuttered horribly all throughout my childhood and into high school. I did seem to just simply grow out of it as I entered adulthood. I casually saw a speech pathologist once a week or so for a year...

>**being at your peak physical health**, and eating great foods all the time **can greatly impact your health** and wellbeing Yup!...

Can totally relate to this. Especially when I stuttered as a teenager. Everything comes from the mind. When you lose sleep it affects the way your brain functions. Which then affects your thought pa...

Same for me, and recently I've been considering a connection to overall CNS fatigue. I've been working out a lot harder than usual in the last year or so, and when I go 6+ days straight without a res...

I actually wrote blog post on sleep and stuttering. I noticed the same as you. Now I do yoga and other things to sleep even better. http://stutteringhabits.com/stutterers-anxious-talking-sleep/...

Definitely see a correlation between sleep and my stutter.

Definitely see a correlation between sleep and my stutter. On days where i know i got little to no sleep(When you wake up feel like shit,brain fog, etc u know what i mean) my stutter is at its worst.W...

I stutter the worst with my parents, I think it may be that I'm not consciously trying to control it because I don't have to be guarded with them. They've lived with it with me for so long that it doe...

I have what you have, only everything is a tense situation for me lol. It's anxiety/stress. You are unaware of your breathing, most likely holding your breath trying to find the right word. When we ta...

Yeah, it's crazy, right? My Asthma nurse always says "Eat well to breathe well" (This information is from google) Fresh fruit and vegetables are full of antioxidants, which may improve your lung h...

There are two ways stuttering can tire me out: the mental exhaustion of navigating a long conversation, and poor breath control during stuttering. I less and less feel fatigued after speaking these d...

Yes. But im not sure its caused by the stuttering or my introvert nature. Speaking can be tiresome for sure, and even though I often dont feel stressed, I can feel myself sweating when talking to stra...

Yes, especially after long conversations or job interviews. Just gotta focus on the positives, which is that you got your message across and achieved what you came there to do (order your meal, ask ...

Tiredness from speaking?

Tiredness from speaking? I have just recently accepted my stutter.Earlier I used to avoid many speaking situations like talking on the phone,talking to strangers etc.Now that I have accepted my stutte...

Yep, I feel the same way. For myself, it's important that I keep taking my brown inhaler twice a day and eat healthy. These two simple things help keep my asthma stable. I always take my blue inhaler ...

Yes, I have asthma aswell. I have often thought it may interfere with my stutter as most techniques for managing stuttering etc tend to focus on breathing, and so having a shortness of breath makes th...

Any other stutterers with asthma?

Any other stutterers with asthma? I've had asthma since I was born, and have been stuttering since I was 6 or seven. I feel like the asthma amplifies the stuttering severely, as my air ways are constr...

When I have trouble reading out loud it helps me to use my finger to follow along as I read. I think sometimes my brain doesn't let me focus on just one word at a time. ...

I'm currently undergoing speech therapy, and one of the things I was told to do was to read out loud but I have to focus on exaggerated slow speech, deep breaths and word pronunciation. After 6 weeks...

I'm not reluctant, per se. While I know speech pathologists exist, it's not really a booming field where I'm from. My college just had their first batch of graduates, that's how "new" they are. And it...

For me, good quality sleep is the #1 determinant of how bad my stutter will be that next day. ...
