It's never too late for speech therapy. I'm 31 and just starting out. The speech therapist has advised it would be best for me to start seeing a psychologist first for the anxiety then we can start wo...

How to not have anxiety when speaking.

How to not have anxiety when speaking. Hello, I am a 15 year old severe stutterer. Just having started school again I'm met with the same "sorry what was your name?" and, without fail, I freeze up an...

Yeah but if your stutter is caused by a physical thing. Like mouth muscles are weak, you will stutter even when you talk to yourself out loud. This can be treated within months and that's it. But it ...

My experience is that they feed off of each other and both continue to grow stronger regardless of whether I am aware of the anxiety or not. Only once you accept something as real can you learn to add...

Starting sixth form tomorrow...

Starting sixth form tomorrow... If you are unaware what sixth form is it is where a 16 year old goes after they finish school. Although you get more freedom and you only study the courses you choose t...

A lot of my stuttering has to do with my self esteem. If I'm feeling down one day I'll noticeably start stuttering more than usual. If I'm more confident than ever, I'll stutter less or be nearly 100%...

In my opinion drinking caffeine does affect you because it makes you feel more nervous and people usually stutter more when they are nervous (this is my opionion)....

Dude it is for me too. Please listen to this maybe it will motivate you. At age 12 i was this happy outgoing kid, but then masturbation and porn became a part of my life and i became so addicted to it...

It stresses out your nervous system to have an orgasm. Look up Nofap on reddit, 40.000+ guys have been cured of social anxiety by abstaining from porn and masturbation. But it's not easy trust me, i h...

That's odd behavior to me on the male's part. What you said was normal ESPECIALLY because you're a female. I've had it said to me multiple times and I was never annoyed by it by the slightest. Pro...

I've stuttered my whole life and no one has ever said this. I can completely understand why he would have reacted that way, if it happened to me My natural instinct would be they are making fun of me...

I totally understand! but we hadn't just met - we have been talking and flirting for a while. He knows my feelings are genuine but maybe he still feels like I'm poking fun. :( feelsbad....

Personally, I would find it very weird and think the person is subtly poking fun if they said they like my stutter. ...

I stutter and i have social anxiety. Getting rid of my masturbation habits and porn habits have made my social anxiety so much better though....

I have to do this maybe 3 times a week at work. It's worse when over an Internet call but you just have to have confidence. Fake it till you make it. ...

I like to keep my stutter as a secret, I think this thing is constantly keeping me anxious about how others will judge me.. **sigh *stupid brain*...

It does helps but the illusion stays only for few minutes. As soon as I get anxious about other people around me I start to breakup and even stutter worse. But now its not a **one to one** call, I ha...

Yah I have had this my whole life, and now in my early twenties it's difficult moving on from the social anxiety that has left me rather socially stunted and with low self confidence. My stutter at t...

Yep, you described it perfectly. I started my freshman year at college this week and I've found it to be more severe than usual, especially amidst all the introductions, icebreakers, and so forth. N...

I'm honestly about to start crying from this post and specific comment. It was the first days of classes today (University) and we did those stupid intros today. It's so hard to talk to new people and...
