For stutters with anxiety

For stutters with anxiety If you do not allow yourself to stutter you will continue with anxiety and fear, as a result you cut off your spontaneity. Instead if you allow yourself to stutter safely an...

Yea voluntary stuttering can help with feelings of shame because you are intentionally blocking and "ruining" the flow of the conversation. And it's okay because it doesn't have that same feeling of r...

Usually the drive to push words out is actually a drive to hide repetitions, esp when combined with eye avoidance. I’m not sure if that’s what you are doing. Do you consider eye contact is being ...

Personally I’ve always felt it’s more of an internal drive to “push” the words out, less that I am concerned about their response....

Is it possible to "not feel" your mouth when you talk?

Is it possible to "not feel" your mouth when you talk? I want to try trusting my mouth to speak by itself. Like, I only contribute with thoughts and the content itself, but the muscles involved in spe...

Do we subconsciously cause our stutter?

Do we subconsciously cause our stutter? I’ve noticed that I never stutter when I’m paying no attention to what my mouth is doing and when I speak what I’m thinking as I’m thinking it. When I give a pr...

Similarity between urination and stutter

Similarity between urination and stutter Sorry in advance for this super weird question, but I am very curious about it. I have stutter and as any other person with stutter I can speak fluently when...

Yes, it's unintentional and feels out of my control and impossible to stop. It could be for a long time, too, if I'm really stuck on a word. Makes me feel unsafe to try to say anything when driving or...

Yes I am feeling like suffocating while talking these days like every block its a complete blocking of air too idk why. And I used to be afraid of hiding my stutter before. Now from quite a while I s...

Yes! It leaves me breathless sometimes I’m trying to be more aware of this and stop breath and try again it’s constant work lol :)...

I totally get you. You want to speak so badly you can't stop for a second to breathe, calm yourself and say what you want to say. I run out of breath so much when I'm speaking....

What type of stutter do I have?

What type of stutter do I have? So i know a stutter is different for each person but i never met or heard one like mine. Instead of stuttering in the sence of: „a-ap-a-apple“, i stutter in a different...

Yahh its like as soon as I'm put in front of anybody I immediately lose the ability to speak fluently:( It's like my mind has trained itself to do that...

So what’s the difference between you being alone and being in front of people? Clearly that must mean there’s nothing PHYSICALLY wrong with you if you can read fine alone, right? Just a mental hesitat...

Per your definitions, I don’t think I’ve ever had an “involuntary” stutter....

It’s not so much about whether or not you are physically alone. It’s more of whether or not your *voice* is being (going to be) heard. PWS tend to become fluent when speaking simultaneously in a gr...

To be honest, I don't argue a ton because I feel that I can lose control of my speech and I also don't enjoy the feeling of losing control or getting overly angry...

Yes exactly. That's a really good description of it. It's also really dangerous as I sometimes don't know what I'm saying until I've said it...

I think it's all the same and we can choose to do either or. The problem stems from not being able to get past a certain part, always falling into the pitfall right then and there. So say we first s...

This 100%. Like your vocal cords close and prevent you from uttering a sound. Like paralysis sometimes. Your mouth, jaw, throat, etc. just freezes. After that you have to take a breath and retry, pray...
