Luckily in my culture laughing at stuttering is a extreme no-no, so it rarely happens. In regards to other stuff like when I make a fool of myself in other ways, if I get a block, I try to push throug...

That is a very good tactic, I agree. I personally however prefer just speaking normally to people and let any stutter that occures just happen and not give it any mind but I can imagine when you volun...

Very well said! A good way to get over your fear of stuttering in front of others is to voluntarily stutter during conversation. Yes that's right... voluntarily stutter. During a 2 week intensive st...

My advice is to go head on, do everything you want in your life and DO NOT let stuttering get in your way. If you speak confidently and happen to stutter it is not that big of a deal. HOW you deal wit...

Gonna watch your vid! I agree with all things you just stated. I am sure you are familiar with Michael Williams, currently I am a few weeks in his program and by going out there and desensitize mys...

This is great advise, it actually reminds me of the story of the 2 Buddhist monks crossing the river. [Story](http://www.kindspring.org/story/view.php?sid=63753) Just a tip I've found when talking to...

Thanks for your response. I am also greatly into psychedelics, I haven't dived deep enough into them to truly experience the boundary dissolving effect but I've experienced them enough to learn the po...

Overall it was a very positive experience. I drank it three times in total. The ritual aspect of it, IMO, makes the experience unlike any other psychedelic. The settings, the Shaman, the whole deal. D...

Do you adjust your diet to theanine? I heard taking coffee and tea for example counteract theanine. So you also advocate just diving in the world and taking on every social interaction and desensitize...

Ah, I've seen that video before. Very compelling. Normally don't care for that kind of confessional yelling confrontational performance poetry (my words obviously), but she really affected me. "I...

Hi Linda, I googled your name and you seem like a wonderful lady with an amazing story. I am so glad you have an interest in stuttering; sometimes I feel like it is not given much priority in the SLP...

Eventually, the idea is that you're fully comfortable with your stuttering issues and subsequently do not care about what others say or think about it. And I'll tell you what: 99% of the people you'll...

How to "Stutter without struggle"?

How to "Stutter without struggle"? I keep hearing this phrase from he Uber positive crowd on this sub. Whatever it is, it's helped out those individuals so I think I should give it a try too. So w...

What about Jimmy from South Park! I make fun of my stutter every now and then. I feel that it helps and takes power away from the problem and puts it in my hands....

I have a mild stutter than can get very severe in certain situations. I had to take a public speaking class last year because it was a requirement. At first it really sucks, but you just have to push ...

I believe it's absolutely possible to "overcome" it to a point where it has a minimal effect on your life. It's never going away completely & will always be something that must be managed, but it ...

It was mostly practicing over and over again with confidence that 'cured' me, yes. Don't give up and lose hope, keep going. The next time you're talking to someone or a group of people and you have to...

Thats amazing. Putting yourself out there can definitely do wonders. I try to put myself out there as well but not as much as I'd like cause I'm still a bit afraid of being mocked and what not. Was th...

There is a cure, it's called hard work and confidence and it can only be done by you. I've had a terrible stutter for most of my known life, through primary school all the way to high school and coll...

Been there. High school was a very dark time for me. I'm 28 now and working in journalism, where I talk all the time. It gets better, but it can take time. Hang in there, buddy. Push yourself as hard ...
