Developing a stutter as adult could be a neurological warning sign that something is wrong with your brain. Go get it checked out just to be certain....

Thanks for the reply, it makes a lot of sense the way you explain it. The brain is really fascinating they way it copes with different sorts of problems, and it makes sense that such a complex organ w...

Question: why do some stutters manifest themselves as repeating words?

Question: why do some stutters manifest themselves as repeating words? I'm watching a youtuber who has a stutter, and I noticed that as well as having trouble getting a word out (f-f-fi-fire) he somet...

I don't think it's a placebo. Words are jumping from my mouth easier than before. Brahmi is named after hindu god brahma who had 4 heads and hindus believe it can cure any problems related to the brai...

I have a theory. It's psuedoscience in that some of it is backed up by science, and some of it is conjecture. I used to stutter, but I don't anymore. My stuttering was caused by orofacial disorders th...

I stuttered until I was 36. I'm 37. Completely recovered. No tricks. The root cause of my stuttering were orofacial disorders too. It sounds like you already have a good background on this issue. At ...

I'm fairly confident that they're not related. To compare cases, my stutter is quite severe yet my writing is completely unaffected. The only way I really see the two things being connected is if th...

No one has 100% come out and said it is neurological glitch. When doing brain scans SOME anomalies have been found in SOME people. Not one expert has categorically said if these results are the CAUSE ...

We could go back and forth all day about ‘learned behaviour’ vs neurological and we probably wouldn’t get anywhere. I concede that some people maybe do have a neurological component to it. But I would...

Did the therapist tell you that's not how it works? It's not a learned behavior. It's neurological, but there is a genetic component....

Some say that a brain of a stutterer uses different parts of their brain to speak maby it uses the hand coordination as well?...

Apparently there is a [link](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4737687/) between ADHD and Tourettes' (or other "tic" disorders)! I have ADD myself but I had no idea there was one until I di...

This is so weird, I used to do something similar when I played piano as a kid. When I would start a passage sometimes and would pause in the middle, I had a hard time mentally hitting the keys again t...

I don't think that's related to stuttering - as far as I can tell, stuttering is specifically linked to the "speech" area of the brain and writing (or even singing, in most cases) won't trigger it. Th...

In that case, theoretically you should be good if you can gain better control over your stutter. It's curious that it happens outside of stuttering situations though (even if very rarely). Have you co...

Strangely enough, people didn't really comment on it much in my case. It helps that my stutter is somewhat mild/occasional, and that I was already seen as a shy/nervous kid anyway. I can imagine how ...

I can definitely believe that - my own stutter only really developed when I was about 15. I *did* have like 3 instances of stuttering before that point, though (as in, 3 individual blocks, years apar...

Stuttering most commonly shows up around the 3-5yo ages. But, later starts are not unheard of. The brain is developing well into your 20s, and as long as it's still developing and changing, stuff can ...

Your headaches, jaw tension, and cracking are all symptoms associated with Temporomandibular Joint dysfunction (TMD). Your oral appliance looks very similar to a tongue crib, which is used to correct ...

Stuttering is complex! There's no ONE reason why an individual may stutter. Yes, anxiety and nerves play into it so if you're anxious, you'll probably stutter more. BUT stuttering can also be genetic ...
