This is a copy-paste of a previous comment I've made since I think it might be beneficial to you. I don't want to take away from your confidence, but this is advice I'd have wanted when I was in your ...

I wouldnt ask about speech therapy, it'll only make it much worse and take years to recover. Maybe also check out Dr Morton Coopers videos "The game of Stuttering". Good luck though :)...

The reason I have been quiet about speech therapy is because I spent so much money on that bullshit and it didn't work. I went to it for more than a year. I practiced every day. It doesn't work for a...

The problem is even in this sub that there are people who have a minimal stutter are telling people who have a severe stutter that some random remedy or speech therapy will work and if it doesn't its ...

It’s never too late I didn’t find speech therapy to be helpful for me but if it works for you and you think it’s worth practicing keep going...

From my own (negative) experience with SLPs in early childhood, I would just say: Listen. To the parents and to the speech of the PWS. This was over 20 years ago and things have probably and hopefully...

Unfortunately, I've tried two and have not had any lasting improvements. I have had a stutter and block issue for so many years, and I've learned to dance around my words in such a way that there's ve...

I went as a child every week, taken out of school and everyone knew where I was going - absolutely waste of time. I also went as an adult to several and another great waste of my time. An hour a week...

I have gone through speech therapy and didn't do anything. I don't blame speech therapists at all, they tried their best, its just seems that the "tricks" they use to fix stuttering don't work at all....

I went for 3 years it did not do shit for me might be because i was 10-13 and my stuttering started appear at 7 so like it was such a new thing still by that point and i am also autistic and have stru...

Just because you did doesn't mean everyone can. I went 3 years to speech therapy and practiced everyday and It didn't help at all. Stuttering is genetic. Your brain has a deformation. The brain of a s...

SLP here: what do you think we could do better?

SLP here: what do you think we could do better? Hello, everyone. I’m a high school SLP who has worked with many students who stutter over the years and I have a lot of conflicted feelings on the instr...

Thank you. I think the therapist we went to wasn’t very knowledgeable. She told us to tell him to slow down and try again, but everything I’ve read said not to do that....

Thank you for your response. Yes what you are saying is pretty much what our private SLP has been saying. Daughter goes to a center where she was getting OT, but also offers speech, so she has been ...

One of my biggest regrets in life is the amount of speech therapy I've done.  From the age of 17-22, for more than 5 years, I dedicated myself to speech therapy. I did an hour a day of breathing dri...

I haven't seen his course, but his book didn't really resonate with me. I feel that he poses a lot of things as facts when they just aren't, and it can come across as confrontational. Just my opinion ...

They're not opposing views. As I said, the operation has grown: When I say "HE does not charge for the sessions HE coaches", I'm talking about the sessions that Lee coaches personally. The WSSA member...

Can I ask how you hold those two opposing thoughts ? "He does not charge for the sessions he coaches" and "The subscription that WSSA offers" ? Are you able to participate in the sessions and not pay ...

With all due respect, your comment makes me think you either didn't read the book at all or didn't pay attention. Lee has a variety of crutches that specifically deal wirh "first feared words" and th...

Glad you're able to manage your speech now! It doesn't matter the path one takes to fluency, it's as long as you put in the time and effort to get there. To answer you question, I did reach Lee's bo...
