I feel as though my throat clenches up, and all of a sudden I need to take a deep breath. The breathing could be a coping mechanism though. My hands stay frozen in whatever position they are at that m...

I don't have any video recommendations, but I will also recommend some yoga or especially meditation. I've benefited greatly from meditation. It slows down my thoughts, my breathing and my ability to...

I'm currently pursuing a MSc, so I've been in the higher education system for some time. I've had my ups and downs, although more ups than downs. I've very much enjoyed the first couple of years, main...

But how will you get better at speaking, if you don’t do it? I’m the opposite, I take the opportunity to go in front of the class and speak. Not in my full lecture (with about 130), but every Thursday...

I've tried a few things here and there, but nothing really worked. What has helped me is meditation, cutting coffee, and being honest with myself and not expecting perfection. It's fine if you stutt...

Yeah ! You need to act like you're in a constant state of emergency ! After regaining some fluency, I find I keep on talking in a jumble too, like stuttering because my thoughts and my mouth aren't s...

There is no cure. Speech therapy can help you learn tactics to deal with stuttering as it comes. Yoga/other can help with your breath. Mental health services can help you weather the frustration and i...

Try this anxiety breathing technique. Take a long, deep breath through your nose. Hold it for 3 seconds. Exhale slowly through pursed lips, while you relax the muscles in your face, jaw, shoulders, an...

You minimise stuttering by minimising all the conditions that give rise to it. Anxiety, poor breathing problems, negative mental conditioning brought upon by your subconscious mind, rushing your speak...

You're welcome. I forgot exactly where I read it, but a quick google search lead me to [this](https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/life-bilingual/201111/change-language-change-personality). I've told...

The thing about having multiple personalities sounds ridiculous but on second thought there might be something to it. The only thing we need to do now is to tap into this other personalites (maybe tha...

A good place to start is focus on taking a full breath in every time you begin to talk. We often don't do this subconsciously and attempt to make words without enough air, resulting in a blockage....

Find an article, read it out loud using a slow, steady rate of speech. Take good breaths every 5 words. Practice mindfulness/meditation to release tension or stress from stuttering....

Thanks for that info. I've always done the same things too, but I find that I usually get the speech block when I begin to speak, not during. Thankfully taking in some deep breaths through my nose, do...

I feel your pain. No need to apologize. Life is hard as it is, and is even harder when we stutter. It was so hard for me. I used to avoid, make up names, and not do certian activities. Then I went to ...

I'm sorry to hear this happened. Anxious situations like interviews hardly help with speaking. I get the feeling that you were apprehensive going into the interview - which makes things worse. I highl...

Slowing everything down helps. Breathing helps. In the instance that you're in a high pressure situation, it's imperative to do breathing exercises and speak slowly many times OUTSIDE of the situation...

It sucks that stuttering happens mostly when you need to talk. I'd say try to slow down your speech and breathe. Your brain is going a million miles an hour and your mouth can't move that fast. Breath...

try to manuiplate your breathe if you feel that you're getting swept away with stress i can totally relate to my mouth being wired shut due to an enmorous berage of nerves it doesn't eliminate it comp...
