1) My stutter is overt. People watching me talk easily realise I am stuttering. 2) I would say my stutter's severity score varies depending upon the situation. When I am having routine, mundane conve...

I'm gonna join too. Just had my first reading out loud in front of the public experience at university, read an introductory essay about myself and on other subject too. It's needless to say that I bl...

this same scenario happened to me at first day at college like a week ago luckily i was in a group of 5 students with the lecturer .. the lecurer asked for my name so he can write it down and i stood...

I see. I think your stutter definitely came from changing schools. Every time I'd change jobs or location or whatever, it caused me stress and triggered anxiety which triggered stuttering. I think you...

Well, you either have two options: face this head on and just keep carrying on as usual, just power through it, keep talking, don't filter and do this for an extended period of time. If it goes away, ...

Great question. Yes, I've spent a great deal of my waking life thinking about traumatic roots that played a part in my burgeoning stutter and I have to sadly say that I had one helluva traumatic child...

Is it just me?

Is it just me? 4 years ago, back in 6th grade, I noticed I developed a mild stutter. It wasn't always there, but it was present enough to really shake my confidence and make me speak only when I had t...

This is the best advice right here ^^ Another thing I used to do was show up for class and start speaking out loud before anyone else arrived. It's more a prep to get used to saying words out loud i...

I have been stuttering since the first day I opened my mouth, but today was a good day. Hey guys! I've never posted on here before, but I didn't know who else would be happy about this other than you ...

Thanks for your testimony and your encouragement. I'm still studying at university too and the majority of my friends have graduated too. I don't know what "couple meetings" are (I'm italian), but I p...

My opinion would be go simultaneously. It's no use in having the "techniques" but not exposing yourself to situations where your stuttering can produce itself, and also for some people dragging themse...

Well sometimes I feel even more anxious if I don't stutter, because I'm just waiting for it to happen. That anticipatory anxiety can be worse that the actual "right after the event" anxiety. I guess p...

I'm in a similar situation right now. I'm not depressed anymore but I have issues with anxiety. I'm in my early twenties and still not close to being finished at uni. I feel like you do, it's as if l...

Yeah, i think my stutter is mostly worrying about what others think if me IF i stutter. And that IF make me stutter more, so it's just a evil circle. I see so much negativity on this subreddit, but we...

I agree with what you are saying. I just know how much i hate/hated my stutter and how low it make me feel. When i'm drunk or on mdma(not often haha) i rarely stutter. Well i stutter, but i don't have...

Don't sit and cry about your stuttering, fucking do something about it.

Don't sit and cry about your stuttering, fucking do something about it. Go out and talk to people, don't give a fuck about what people think about you. Go to the gym and build your dream body. Go on a...

You are not communicating when you are talking to yourself alone. Which means it's a low stress activity where you don't hit your speechsystems stuttering threshold. Do you stutter when you record y...

I know most of us, myself included, get annoyed when people write off stuttering as just "being nervous" but there is definitely a psychological element. When you're alone, there is no *pressure* to b...

Put on some headphones, face away from your door and start reading a book or something. Tell a friend or family member to walk into the room at some point (3-5 minutes in or whatever). See what happe...
