I remain convinced that I don't like ketchup today because when I was a kid I could never ask for it at a restaurant. That's OK—I mean I really don't like ketchup anymore. If I find something I want t...

Like others I've definitely compensated by increasing commentary—usually sarcastically; I'm lucky to have friends who appreciate that kind of banter. Telling jokes or stories for me is very much like ...

Same here. But I also stutter when I get excited about things. Say someone asks a very interesting question in a presentation I'll suddenly start stuttering. Same with family, when I talk to my brothe...

Happens often at the bar. I try to order a M-m-m-m-miller lite, but frequently end up just saying Coors or Busch instead. (don't hate me for my bad beer choices)...

I'm pretty good at making my friends laugh, using deadpan humor, making context jokes. But im terrible at telling jokes, cant hit a punchline, and a lot of the time can't get the necessary inflection/...

It can certainly completely deflate what would have otherwise been a comedic delivery. It's actually quite curious how fickle that sort of thing is in that regard (which we see also with general issue...

repetition is one of the techniques used in effective communication for stutterers already. I use it every day when speaking to patients. I can tell they didn't understand what I said but are too po...

I believe stuttering had his cause in the brain. But yeah, when I'm alone I don't stutter. So maybe I can be fluent if I put hard work in my speech? But why? I'm not unlucky with my mild (sometimes mo...

> Does it take a herculean amount of energy when talking to yourself, alone? Yes, actually. I'm one of those stutterers who experiences disfluency when speaking to myself or my pets, while speakin...

Does your stutter extend into your inner voice?
