I think I figured out how I started stuttering

I think I figured out how I started stuttering I've been stuttering from age 5 and I'm also a long time anxiety sufferer. Recently I have experienced a phenomenon and I think it serves as a good ind...

That's interesting. I'll have to look up the first three especially, to see exactly what they are. I have the belief now that stuttering is mostly a multi-situational psychological issue and should ...

You are correct of course, I just hadn't heard the term for it, and thought OP meant that the stuttering had been acquired from his sister....

Acquired stuttering is very much a thing and is a widely accepted term used to any stuttering that is not developmental. One type of acquired stuttering is neurogenic stuttering. This is when stutte...

Great analogy. ¿Can you see the irony here? Our mind is blocking us from something dangerous and the dangerous thing is just giving our opinion to a third person. It surely is not junping from a cliff...

Hey, I was not born a stutterer, i have spoken fluently for upto 12 years of my life. Then I had a lot of trauma for years,basically parents fighting and cancer and deaths and I started stuttering. Al...

(Sigh)… Alrighty then. Lots to unpack. Stuttering appears to be one of the top 5 or so of your issues you are dealing with. As someone that deals with trauma on the daily, please allow me to paraphras...

Very. It took me back to face the trauma and allowed me to learn breathing techniques to help me with my speech. Also and most importantly, it was the only time that my body was at full rest mode....

I think it’s completely normal tbh… I think stutterers just have.. idk the word.. it’s like a trauma response to speaking but truly asking ‘how should I speak perfectly 24/7’ is like asking ‘what’s th...

Thank you for sharing. I do as well think its something emotion-driven, expecially from anxiety. However, if being on this sub taught me something, that definitely is that an high percentage of us ha...

Not sure how to put it

Not sure how to put it So I'm here in this group for a while and I like what you all sharing....so I'm going to share this with you my theory about stuttering..... So first of all we can't just hear s...

But that’s what OP is saying. I think I agree with OP in that it’s more about ur (bare with me..) trauma responses to words. Stuttering is different cuz some people sustain head trauma and stutter but...

My stepmom used to think I was faking it until I broke down because I was blocking so much. Although she doesn’t believe in anything that I have (stutter, adhd, etc.)...

I can’t express how often my dad thinks I’m lying when I stutter. He has this “theory” that I stutter when I’m lying.🙄...

I find that many people don't understand stuttering - at least the psychological and the fact stuttering is often inherited. Their "stuttering" is actually not stuttering but rather normal speech that...

I microdose shrooms since I was referred to @fabmycostore1 on Instagram, cause of my depression, trauma, O.C.D and addiction to alcohol. But I've never had a closed eye hallucination, which is because...

Anyone believe your mind holds you back?

Anyone believe your mind holds you back? I’ve stuttered for probably 36 years, does anyone else believe the mental baggage of being a life long stutterer holds you back? By that I mean, I’ve had count...

Yes, I'm a female who overcame stammering at the age of 70! My stammer was probably caused by an abusive childhood. Psychotherapy to deal with the anger and resentment was my key to fluency. Stutterin...

What’s your take on taking psychedelics?

What’s your take on taking psychedelics? I was listening to the book Tools of Titans by tim ferris. There was a whole section on psychedelics he mentioned. One of them caught my attention. It was Aya...

Trust speech happen on its own

Trust speech happen on its own Who is in charge of speaking: ¿Your conscious mind or your body does it by itself? We stutters interfere with the natural flow and process of the body creating speaking...
