I think it differs between each person.. although you're better than most people. I can never my Cs, Ps right, also I can never get out words that start with 2 constants, followed by a vowel (e.g. cr...

I'm 29 now & have found that regularly & consistently putting myself outside my comfort zone has made my stutter MUCH better. The fear & anxiety I used to feel doing things such as making ...

It has always been the other way for me. I almost never stutter when talking out loud to myself. But I always read silently. To me that seems to be more effective than reading aloud. What problem do y...

had a few job interviews lately. first one was terrible, could barely get a word out edge-wise. a few days later a friend let me know that i had a guaranteed job working for him if i wanted it. tha...

Last semester I had to do a 10 minute presentation for one of my finals. Before this, the last time I ever spoke in front of the whole class was sixth grade, so being in college now, you could say I'm...

Because stuttering happen in social interactions. This is why many of us don't stutter when we read alone, sing, etc. It has nothing to do with confidence, like i see below. ...

I'm *** 18 yrs old I have been listed in top 100 young entrepreneurs list by several media outlets and own a gaming & tech news site that is pretty big (30+ people work for it) I also advise start...

Hi there, I'm a moderator here and I've noticed that you have been a very relevant part of the "negativity" expressed on here. But I will disregard that for now. What you need to understand is that t...

Stop trying to "help", because obviously it won't make things better for you guys. Just support him and accept his stutter the way it is now. Yes he might be more fluent after doing exercises but this...

This is something that's maybe only come up twice in our relationship, so I really haven't been trying to push any change on him or make him feel like this is a big issue. But it's been on my mind a l...

I think what's angering people on here the most about your post is how you approach the stuttering as if it were a "problem" that is self-induced. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt though, beca...

I think I can see two things going on here. 1. He hasn't gotten over and accepted his stutter. He doesn't sound confident being able to talk about it. He should be open and willing to answer all your...

Yeah, I understand that. I think I didn't know what I really wanted to ask in this subreddit. But it wasn't about reducing his stutter - more of how to allow him to accept it, instead. I don't think i...

Even when it's something that's clearly hurting him and leading to all this self-loathing and insecurity? I think what makes it hard for me to just drop this is that he's told me speech therapy has he...

I don't know how to approach this. That's why I'm here. I know his stuttering is a huge source of self-hatred and causes him a lot of stress in his life. From an outside perspective, I can see that he...

You are right, but she just wants him to open up about it which he def should do. And from there it is obviously his choice to do what he want and doesnt want. I would argue that not talking about it ...

Saying my own freaking name. It starts with an "m" which is one of the hardest sounds for me. People look at me like I'm making up my name and it can make it so difficult to be outgoing and introduce ...

Every stutter is unique. My own has nothing to do with nerves. Is he nervous around your family, or does he just stutter more? Stuttering can make very little sense in when and how it manifests, and i...

Dont listen to the others, there are ways to reduce the rate/severity in which we stuter and since speech therapy has helped him he knows this as well. It could be that he is simply too tired after so...

That's why I wanted to post here. I didn't want to talk to him about this more if it would hurt him because I don't understand stuttering well enough. His speech improves a lot when he does his exerc...
