You said you are not able to do those things you mentioned. But you are. A lot of stutterers are there to prove you wrong, including me. It's your attitude that's preventing you from accomplishing an...

One trick is learning to remove the shame. To really stop caring about what people think and to find people you truly feel connected to and can be yourself with. That makes all the difference....

I mean, I don't usually bring it up because I'm a covert stutterer anyway but if the conversation comes up I do remind people that it is protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act. By no mean...

Well mate, you decide what your life is going to look like. You can dwell over it and live your life waiting for death, or try to change your mindset. I know that's much easier said than done, but c...

There is no cure for stuttering. However there are lots of well-researched practices and techniques for smoothing things out and reducing the effect it has on your communication. I have a bachelor's d...

I'm really not into this stuttering acceptance bullshit like "it's part of you, it makes you unique, etc". Fuck that. I see stuttering as an annoying fuck that I must continue fighting to have somewh...

That's a neat little write-up. :) I wonder if there's been studies done as to the "mindset" effect on a stuttering situation. Like, if some of the challenge can be circumvented by simply training to ...

Articulation vs. Fluency.

Articulation vs. Fluency. We'll be taking articulation in this case as being the ability to get words out and taking fluency as the ability to speak without delay, or quickly per say. --- #Fluency a...

I might come off as insensitive, but, please, stop whining. I'm sure you've already tried everything to stop stuttering, even on the phone. Since it doesn't help you're left with 2 options - you eithe...

Did a kick-ass presentation.

Did a kick-ass presentation. I've always thought that my stutter got worse with anxiety. In the last 3 months I have free-ed myself from abusive relationships, made good with my father, etc. I did m...

Take this opinion for what you will.. ..but I believe stuttering to be an anxiety disorder. Hear me out: at some point a long the way we've learned that we *must* speak completely fluently. Which is ...

Thanks Chaz. That was a fantastic video. I subscribed to your channel :) I definitely like the approach of just tackling things. It's something I'm trying to do more of (which is why I made this post...

Then you can do it. And if you ever feel like you can't, hit the gym, hard. The muscles you will put on will be armor, both physical and psychological, and it's gonna help a lot in not giving a fuck. ...

I've had a similar experience to you. Years ago I'd ask people online how to combat my stutter and social anxieties and be met with no help at all. They'd redirect me to something else rather than giv...

I had a private speech therapist when I was 16 (I'm now 24). Had one as a result of being displeased with the regular speech therapy on offer from my local doctors. The thing that was highlighted most...

The thing that most stutters fail to understand is we're in control of everything that we do. Regardless of whether stuttering is hereditary or developed over time, we can still work towards speaking ...

Just because you are not genetically programmed for something does not mean you can't work hard at it and improve. Lots of people aren't born to be great at something, but they work at it and become g...

damn it man, me too. This proves that we can fix it, it's not only genetic. It's linked to our perception....

Just stutter. It'll get better. It's all about confidence. I do the pre-sentence thing like you. I say "like" a lot before stuff or just "errr" kinda like I'm thinking. But it gets better. You just ne...

Totally depends on how you frame the things you experience. As evndienced by this thread, people are able to angle some of it positively - however, you may not experience these things the same way. Bu...
