I think we may have drifted from the original quote already. Let's look at it again: >Its our own attempt to avoid stuttering that makes everything worse See how this strikes a clear relation bet...

Sure, there's typically much effort spent in stuttering. But I don't see how we can make it all about something we shouldn't be doing. Or at least, I think that's missing the point. We can address our...

I don't think it makes sense to try and separate these things, especially not if it's going to end up seeming like a blame put upon the stutterer (which is why I wrote the above)....

>Its our own attempt to avoid stuttering that makes everything worse I'd urge you to not think like that. It makes it seem like something's our fault. But it's not our fault. It's stuttering. It's...

Yes, that's one among many differences between the brains of people who stutter and people who do not. The jury is still out on what in the brain is causing stuttering. It's too early to hone in on on...

We don't know what exactly causes stutter. But we do know one thing about it: _It's not your fault_. What you describe sounds like you think it's something you're doing to yourself. It's not. It may f...

Yes it's commoner in men than in women. Consciousness arises from the physical and chemical architecture of the brain, so the distinction between "physical" and "psychological" causes is not necessa...

>stuttering is not a **disability** It's classifiable that way in many countries....

Ah, I see your angle... myself, I'd just be thinking in terms of stutter awareness instead. I mean, when even grown people can react with ridicule to this sort of thing, we're definitely lacking in t...

I find acknowledgement of one's disability often disarms and diffuses a lot of situations and comfortableness. I had a teacher in high school with Tourette syndrome and on Day 1 of class he explained ...

It's kind of a disability but the problem is that every stammerer is different to some extent. Some are less stammer and some are not. Unlike other disability e.g, blind. You can say he/she a disable ...

Confused!!

Confused!! So i have been reading one self therapy book for stutterers In the beginning, it says we start with the assumptions that there is no physical defect or impairment of speech mechanism that ...

Each stutterer is so individual that a blanket cure would be impossible but I do believe that certain people have a better understanding of the problem compared with the past and I think at least the ...

Find a good speech therapist. One that understands the whole disorder, not just what you sound like when you’re stuttering. You can do whatever you want and stutter, be who you want to be and stutter....

Talking to yourself out loud isn't communication. It's a stressfree activity that doesn't hit your stuttering treshold. For example I'm a severe stutterer when talking to people yet completely stutter...

I hate how little awareness stuttering has.

I hate how little awareness stuttering has. How is it that us as humans have landed on the moon, sent probes to mars, but can't figure out what causes stuttering? Why is that stuttering just generally...

My little one is an extrovert. I’m trying to raise him so his stutter doesn’t hold him back. Can I say how awesome the NSA conference is? It’s a safe space filled with opportunities for public speak...

I didn’t have any bad or good feelings about it. He’s kind of a minor character. I thought the stuttering was a good representation of how someone really stutters. Would have been nice not to have bee...

I totally thought from the headline of the piece that it was going to be a victim sob story, instead there's a good beginning of a discussion about perceiving speech disorders (all disorders, really)....
