I'm hesitant to do so because most people don't seem to gel with what I say, but I'll summarise. This involves a lot of introspection. I suffered a bunch of traumas as a kid. In dealing with these ...

"Know thyself" should be the primary advice for PWS. I've made numerous comments about how I have learned to identify and resolve the psychological and situational factors that lead to my speech diffi...

I still stutter, but MUCH less. Due to autism I'm always masking. But when that mask is off in my only safe space (my room), I can have full made-up conversations (I know..) with myself without stutt...

Love what you said at the end; I´ll always be a stutterer, but I don´t have a stutter. Today I was reflecting about some ideas and a thought come out; maybe every person have a tendency to block. May...

I think it’s hard for me to understand or express how I feel/what’s going on with me. Maybe this doesn’t necessarily stem from stuttering, but having a severe stutter growing up did make it more diffi...

Communication Workshop at Work Today

Communication Workshop at Work Today I had a communications workshop in Work planned for today. This has been on the calender for weeks and as each day's elapsed coming up to today I felt more dread a...

This is wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I really like this and relate very much. I think this helps me identify another moment of acceptance for me- when I stopped fighting so damn much to not be ...

Exactly. McGuire literally makes you repeat lines about how you are NOT striving for fluency. It’s about overcoming your fear of being a person who stutters....

Thank you for the thoughts! Very real and valid experiences. I have to say, I think my stutter is kind of fun - except when I am trying to do voice-activated things, or doing a phone call with anythi...

"Acceptance" has different definitions, what do you think of this?

"Acceptance" has different definitions, what do you think of this? So sometimes when people say we should accept our stutter, they mean we should take pride in it. But for others, acceptance is just ...

Have you tried focusing on WHAT to say instead of HOW to say it? By How I mean how you physically move your mouth, articulate sounds, etc. In my experience if you let your mind do the speaking, stutte...

I’m on team disclose your stutter. Aside from all the obvious benefits of it, putting it in the open like that flips the power dynamic. Instead of your interviewer trying to figure out “why he talks l...

I don’t ever tell anyone I stutter. The moment I open my mouth they know. For interviews I often pretend I chat with friends, so I smile a lot, laugh a lot. If I treat it serious and speak to them as...

I shared this with a post yesterday, but I would recommend going out and doing things you know you already love. Even if you're alone. If you're already at a place / doing something you love and see o...

Perhaps it's the definitive nature of your phrasing that is giving people the wrong impression. I do agree with you that many things are possible, even with a severe stutter, including friendship an...
