Well it's definitely not a scam. I know a lot of people who have gone through it and do recommend it. I havent yet but thats because I don't feel like it's for me. I think one of the best things about...

Hi, I went on the programme at the end of August this year in London and I guarantee it works although it does require loads of discipline especially after the course is done. For example the techniqu...

I feel the same man, just turned 20, in college, but my social life in non-existent. I had friends my first year(which i've always made friends rather easily because my easy going nature), but they ha...

one of my favorite quotes about this comes from the stuttertalk podcast. It goes something like this: "Stuttering is hard work, not stuttering is even harder." I get it. Talking is exhausting. Physic...

I've bottled up a lot of my issues too. I still can't verbalize how I feel about my stuttering and how it's affected me. I can only do it in writing. Once I started writing a post or two, it definitel...

I agree - reflection and self-understanding is essential, and its a practice. I'm just not personally used to it as I have tended to bottle up my issues, and I'm just not used to prodding around insid...

That's a good point, but I think there are things you can do to get it to click sooner. It's never just going to fall into place without facing the problem and analyzing emotions and the like. It prob...

Hi frozen-creek. I fully agree that everyone who has performance anxiety shouldn't wait until they're 60 or whatever to start working on it. But I don't think a logical understanding is sufficient; th...

To go a scientific approach; It's probably just because I'm not stressed and my mind is occupied and therefore I'm not thinking about what I'm saying and not worrying if I'm stuttering....

It's the relaxion during it, it doesn't need to be loud, nor does it need to be on while I'm speaking. The state of relaxation just empties my head of worries and doubts and I can talk to anyone duri...

Hi spuddingdrunk, I must have missed this comment. I'm really sorry about that. Regarding what to look for when you're 50, 60 and 70 and stuttering. I think that may be a valid concern, but why not ...

Just plow through it head on. I'm exactly where you are. Maybe we're suckers for punishment, but I too have purposely found jobs where communication is important. I used to work as a journalist; imag...

I know that it's also not always that easy. I have a hard time doing it. Writing has really helped me assess myself as a person who stutters and try to verbalize and think with more of a focus. If you...

Sit somewhere, eyes open or closed. Focus on your breathing and observe it, nothing else. Observe how breathing feels and all the details(feel the air blowing past your nose hairs, that level of detai...

What would be different with meditation? I meditated regularly and it surely made me less stressed overall, but that is a different way of running away from a problem. I think attacking the problem at...

Meditation guides for anxiety?

Meditation guides for anxiety? I've heard that meditation helps a lot of people with anxiety and stuttering. I want to try it but i'm not sure how to do it right. If anyone here has any links to guide...

Seems the problem here isnt actually your stuttering, its good old social anxiety. And the only thing that really helps there is exposure. I know its hard, but try to not focus on yourself while in a...

How are you controlling your experiments? (also I wonder if you and I mean the same thing by 'experiments'). If you're not controlling them you don't know what (which) variable(s) are dependent. So yo...

First of all thank you for all of this information. It is mostly spot on. I don't think I have an anxiety disorder either, although I was almost starting to convince myself I did. As far as the weed...

Hey glad my post can help you. It feels good being able to relate to people with the same issue, because I literally know nobody else who has to deal with this. Meditating helps a little bit. But hone...
