Well, that's a good question that's hard to describe. I really suggest taking up yoga. It helped teach me to isolate muscles to learn to relax. I often just let my mouth, face go slack. That's how I l...

Well, do you stutter less if you talk without moving your lips? I do, at least to myself. I don't have the balls to talk like that in front of people , they'd think I was nuts lol. It does force you t...

aww, thanks :) I don't have a specific list of actions I do per se. When I begin to anticipate an upcoming disfluency I sort of visualize the the movements my mouth needs to make. I then keep moveme...

I surprisingly find that stutter cotrection may unblock the secondary channel of language

I surprisingly find that stutter cotrection may unblock the secondary channel of language I discovered the method inspired by “language rhythm controller” in an occasional stutter by accident. Vent...

My vocal cords get tight too, it's called vocal fry! Make sure you take deep breaths and pauses while speaking and try to vibrate in your face/palate source: all the SLP grad students that spend 60...

Thats a very nice comment, i totally agree man! how exactly do you produce speech with reduced muscle tension? I have my ways but i am curious of yours!...

I definitely feel tension in my jaw. Can't really explain it, it's a strange pressure that comes and goes randomly...

Perhaps it is something we can create ourselves? By becoming more aware of what happends when we get stuck we might find a way to relax the muscle in a way that enables fluent speech to be produced. J...

exactly! So i was hoping that there is a way to get this feeling 24/7 without exerting conscious control while speaking. Perhaps relaxation directly targeted to the vocal area for example....

I don't have experience specifically in what you are saying. But being concious about my vocal chords has helped me tremendously. Although I don't think I can maintain it forever, since it's a conciou...

I noticed that i can exert less tension while speaking by simply focusing on my vocal cords and saying stuff with less tension. This does help to a certain extent and might be perfected to speak in th...

That's exactly how I'd describe mine. I can control it in certain situations like restaurants and phone calls now though. What I do is I conciously relax my chest and mouth area. I don't really bre...

Tension/tightening of the vocal cords

Tension/tightening of the vocal cords heya guys, I would describe my stutter as having involuntary blocks and sometimes having difficulty pronouncing words, recently i started to really analyze what ...

Also your DEAD wrong at least in my case. In many situations like when I'm alone, on the phone or job interviews, I can control my stutter with alot of will power, speed control and other techniques a...

It's not the confidence. I mean I can go up and talk to anyone and even hold a conversation sometimes. It's just the fact that I come off as a retard to other people when I do so. Blocking and making ...

Is anyone familiar with cluttering, a related condition to stuttering?

Is anyone familiar with cluttering, a related condition to stuttering? I have had a problem speaking for more than 20 years. I have what is known as cluttering, which is related to stuttering. My prob...

This is something I only started thinking about recently, but does anyone else get headaches or have jaw problems because of severe stuttering? Like if I get really blocked, it's a struggle, and somet...

I'm getting a septoplasty and turbinate reduction (for a medical issue), which should enable me to breathe through my nose. I'm really hoping that it will affect my speech in a positive way. Much of t...

It prolly has a lot to do with breathing. My stutter is definitely impacted by my inability to breathe clearly through my nose. ...
