Stuttering on purpose is a common technique used in many methods throughout the world. Every speech therapist I've been to has mentioned it. Rather than an experiment it's just a common method of spea...

I use it at times but only to friends. I think it's a hilarious line for someone with a stutter to use. Of course, you have to use it only when you didn't actually stutter in the sentence and people s...

As far as I can understand it, it is genetic and you can't "cure" it. But YOU CAN OVERCOME IT! I feel you. There were times, the really bad times, when I felt I couldn't say a word if I would have b...

First, trust me when I say you are not alone in dealing with this. I am a 18 y/o \(just turned 18\) male who severely stutters, and I also sometimes feel helpless and think [it is impossible to be a n...

What u have to understand is that you do stutter, and avoiding talking to people is not going to fix that; it'll actually make it worse in most cases. You can talk, it will just take longer to say wh...

My bad, I didn't actually attend. I contacted them and was going to, but then I heard back from this one therapist i've been in contact with and decided to go with her instead. But I did call and spea...

Thanks Chaz. That was a fantastic video. I subscribed to your channel :) I definitely like the approach of just tackling things. It's something I'm trying to do more of (which is why I made this post...

I got a dog. Instead of me worrying about my speech all day, I'm worrying about my dog. My speech has gotten better. My confidence has gone up. Bad day? You have your buddy to spill your heart to. You...

I've had a similar experience to you. Years ago I'd ask people online how to combat my stutter and social anxieties and be met with no help at all. They'd redirect me to something else rather than giv...

Knowing that the mic is on triggers your stuttering behavioral pattern. One tennis player got a block that whenever the judge said 40-40, he always lost that game. Body tensing up, serve in the net,...

Not sure if this is a good idea, but is it possible to record the radio when you're on it "for real"? Then you could listen back to the recording of you completely blocking and cringe. Cringe harder t...

I stutter on purpose to make sure they know without even having to tell them. It also gives me a bunch of confidence doing it....

Honestly I'd say attack it. Get over the fear. The anxiety makes it worse. The more you practice the more comfortable you become. Then it becomes nothing more than a conversation with an audience. And...

I made a joke about my stutter during my job interview. It went over real well. I was stuttering off and on the whole time. It made it more awkward because we didnt talking about it. So the classic qu...

Actually, several circles (including McGuire Programme) involve deliberate disfluency, meaning that you purposely stutter when you don't feel like to. For most of us in this subreddit it sounds appall...

I find it offensive. I'm not a fan of "let's pretend we are disabled" so we know what it's like. There's PLENTY of bad press out there about it is dehumanizing to do these exercises. ...

I don't think any stutterers would be offended and if they were I doubt they would say anything to you. Most people stutter to some degree especially if nervous so I don't think it would be immediatel...

If you were stuttering to pretend some sort of mental deficiency or to imply a link between the two, then maybe. Otherwise, no, not really. Sorry, guess you'll have to go through the experience....

I just don't think you'd be able to recreate the feelings of anxiety that come from blocking or stuttering. I'd be pretty peeved if someone was pretending to stutter to me while I was at work. There...

I've worked a lot on saying my name. Here is what I've postet about it a few month ago: The key for me was to explore exactly what I was doing while stuttering on my name. So I could slowly change it...
