Congratulations! That's huge. Would you mind sharing your age? You share the same story as many stutterers that I have known. It seems like speech therapy and other forms of "treatment" never hold up...

Good News :)

Good News :) I'm not sure how it happened, but about two weeks ago I just stopped stuttering and I haven't had a block since then. My speech has never ever been this good in my whole life. I just want...

this was shown in the movie The King's Speech, just putting it out there....

i think the situations that are the worst to be in when stuttering are those that deal with a lot of emotion, or in which social bridges are being built. i've had a hard time with stuttering when talk...

Any way to get ahold of pagoclone?

Any way to get ahold of pagoclone? I was in the pagoclone study for over a year back in '09/'10 and it helped with blocks a lot (i.e. nearly eliminated them). Very depressing to think that this wonder...

Blocks. When that happens, my hand automatically goes to adjust my glasses, which is awkward because I get am so conscious of that. I probably look even stupider doing that. I cannot make myself stop...

Engaging in conversation is the hardest part for me. Once I'm "in", I feel very confident and do not stutter at all. But there are people to which I really stutter very badly. I found out recently tha...

Whenever I have to introduce myself to someone, I am generally mortified with the entire situation. Saying my name always, without fail, brings out the worst stutter in me. There were a couple times I...

In instances of public speaking/speaking in front of my class; I am currently in university studying Creative Media, this means I have to speak a lot, it is at it's worst when the lecturer asks me to...

Hey, I just want to let you know something incredibly important and useful which I myself (a mild stutterer) came up with =]

Hey, I just want to let you know something incredibly important and useful which I myself (a mild stutterer) came up with =] In this I'm digging right to the core about the way us humans learn to tack...

thank you so much for your input. Regimented information, do you mean something with a common script? What type of phone call is most stressful for you?...

thank you so much for your input! I am an advocate for people who stutter and am hoping to raise awareness! One day I heard "Well if people who sutter didn't want to stutter, they just wouldn't do it,...

When I was in speech therapy I did something like this with my speech therapist, but we never stuttered; we just asked random people questions on what they knew about stuttering. We made a survey and...

I'm a nursing student- I would say where I have to ask for something (I hate to inconvenience people) or when I know I have to give regimented information (the phone if I must explain a situation). ...

Yeah, nothing like being hung up on just as you're about to get the word out. I usually avoid the phone like the plague. However, last week my grandma was in the hospital five hours away from me so I ...

Actually, I forgot to mention the phone in my comment, but I think it's probably the worst for me as well, except possibly reading aloud (although, interestingly enough, I think reading aloud over the...

The situation that causes the most anxiety for me is using the phone. I completely dread having to make doctor appointments, hair appointments, even calling friends. When I worked at a pizza place in ...
