Because techniques never work long term. The best thing u can do is stop controlling your speech and think of your thoughts that u want the other person to know. Not how to say the words...

That's how "techniques" usually work. They're not magic. They work in therapy, they work in controlled situations. Thru may transfer to the real world for a period of time but most of the time they fa...

The reason I find it hard accepting my stutter, and stuttering around people, is because I feel like it’s not my true authentic self. My severe social anxiety, damaged nervous system is stopping me fr...

Oh I know I stutter lol but the reason is because my nervous system is damaged, I have very severe social anxiety. I speak fluently when I am alone. I think I need to start researching how to repair t...

Good recommendation i will think about it! But my dad has raised me very well, he is very loving and caring and that's the part that makes it hurt so bad. He always says i can tell him anything whatev...

Nothing different. Losing my stutter wouldn’t immediately lose a life’s worth of avoidant behavior and self-doubt. The iceberg is real. Over time, however, I could probably learn to adapt to a more f...

Hey that’s me! Lol. People will always say whatever over a keyboard. I bet 99% of them wouldn’t say that to my face....

It's a whole story behind it actually. My dad is in general someone with a very long attention span he always likes to lead the conversation so he's not really a good listener because if it doesn't in...

This is it. I’d be the same person. But I would (internally) savor every second of it. The only thing that may change is I’d probably handle some things that my wife handles now. She takes care of a...

I met my girlfriend online.  It took 4 years of on-and-off swiping, remaking my profile, etc. So you gotta put in the work.  But we've been together over a year now and very happy.  I think onli...

I feel like over time you just learn to become more vulnerable in both stuttering and being upfront about saying you have a stutter. By that I mean you do a mindset shift and just think whatever happe...

I’m a senior in high school right now, and his situation sounds pretty similar to mine when I was his age. I was talkative around my family because words seemed to just naturally come out better aroun...

Thanks for your words, I needed to be reminded of that. Normally I don't pay too much attention to my stutter : I still try to not show it too much on a first impression but I often just let my stutte...

It boils down to the question: to reveal that you are different than others and deal with their reactions or try to covert it. I know some stutterers who seemingly don’t care and some with little prob...

it goes more into invisible disability territory, especially if it's mostly blocks. it's invisible in the sense that people don't see blocks as a form of stutter, but as hesitation or doubt or even pa...

I truly agree with the detachment part, same as you I also struggle the most with battling myself and trying to come across as competent and confident. I know if I let go, it will just be better for ...

You stop stuttering when you stop trying not to stutter....

To those who have achieved *genuine* fluency (not covert stuttering) - what did you do to achieve this?

I am a charismatic stutterer, at least in my opinion. I’m an outgoing lawyer and I openly stutter. Your limitations are primarily self made based on fear. You can stutter and live a deeply fulfilling ...

>Omg I do the cussing thing and the forgetting the word thing, I always say f\*cking in every hard sentence I know I can’t say normally. My friend think I have such bad memory cause I’m there like “...
