Just started stuttering Hey, I never struggled with stuttering until recently. At first I thought it was one of my tics (I have Tourettes) but it feels diffrent. Now, I don't know much about stuttering, so I'm very sorry, if my questions are dumb or rude. First thing I noticed is that I stutter in my native language, (English is not it) and I don't stutter in English. I mean I do, but just because I lack words because I'm just not fluent enough, but not when I know what I want to say and have the words for it, but can't just articulate them (if that makes sense) is it possible to only stutter in one language? Or will I start stuttering in English too? Also like I said, I never had this problem, but isn't a stutter something you are born with? And when I do stutter, I noticed I shake my head in a weird way, kind of like nodding, and I thought it was just one of my tics as well, but I only do it while stuttering, can it be related, or just a weird coincidence? Sometimes I kind of get stuck on, let's say, just one word. And when I get through it, rest of the sentence is fluent, can the stutter be so... uneven? But sometimes I stutter all the way through. Like, on a word that was never a problem, out of nowhere it seems like the hardest word in the world. Can I do something about it? Is there like a therapy or do I just wait? Since it came out of blue, maybe it will go away? Can it get worse over time? I don't know, I'm very confused about it all, and scared. I'm sorry again if I'm being ignorant, I don't mean any harm, I just don't know what's been going on with me. I will appriciate any answers, or even info about stuff I didn't ask.
