Same thing with my dad, you wouldn't guess when talking with him today (the guy is in sales). Did she ever talk about how she dealt with it?...

I myself add in syllables which shouldn't be there to make pronunciation easier. Prefer people looking at me weirdly for mispronunciation rather than looking at them with an open mouth trying to get a...

You can "make a stutterer". It isn't a innate disability. Everyone has blocks and repetitions in their speech but what separates the stutter is the anticipation, then habit of the stutter. So at some ...

New stutterer?

New stutterer? Hello!! So I've had something sort of.... weird this last year. Started about January/Feb, but I went from lisping to.... well, stuttering. And it's really weird, to the point where ...

You could also try saying, 'Yes?' or 'Yeah?'. I like saying it arrogantly, just sounds so cool! Till the very next sentence when the stutter kicks in and all the coolness is shattered......

If it works for you, then you probably should pursue it more diligently. Everybody has their own little techniques and it's tough to paint everybody with the same brush me thinks. The techniques I use...

Not sure if this helps in any way but I can almost completely hide my stutter if I avoid certain words at all costs (generally the beginning of sentences with specific sounds and syllable repetitions(...

My biggest problems are blocking, adding tons of interjections to my sentences and prolongation....

Vowels seem to be the easiest for me, everything else I have trouble with, notably the passive sounds like F, H, and S. My parents really messed up naming me with a D, and my sister -who doesn't stut...

I speak English, Hebrew and russian. I stutter the worst in Russian because it's the language I know the worst out of the three, I don't speak it often, I don't have the rythem down. Every language...

Same-well, at least my preferred middle name does. I usually just go by my first name in public because it's too much effort and embarrassment to say my preferred name....

Are there "types" of stutter?

Are there "types" of stutter? I've known a couple of people who have stuttered, but neither of them have stuttered like I do. I don't often have trouble with vowels, but usually I'll go 'sssssss', 'ff...

I speak shitty Spanish, and I still stutter on it. I don't know anything about Japanese, but it seems like it's a very rhythmic language with lots of inflections, almost like singing. Maybe that's w...

Can you use your other hand to point at yourself or something like that? Maybe raise it to indicate you've got some sort of hold-up? I sometimes do that when words fail to come out properly....

My name starts with a vowel and is tough for me to say so I usually start with "my name is..." And am typically more fluent. Gotta find an easy carrier phrase....

Practice saying your name in a mirror. It seriously helps! In a business setting, I prefer handing them my card, and using only my first name in introductions....

Introducing yourself

Introducing yourself This is kind of a vent thread, but i'm also looking for any tips/advice for these kinds of situations. My stutter isn't really that bad, in that I can still connect with people ...

I think that is normal. I went by my middle name for a year of college. Luckily, in the last 8 years or so my name has been an easy word for me to say. Last name is much harder though, hard consonant ...

Yes, I just want to speak with stutter in discord, and my English is not very well...

Thank you. Yea, I realize that conveying what I want to say through speech is always going to be onerous and painful. That's why I try to find other outlets of expression :) As a stutterer, I'm always...
