Stuttering;Disconnect

Stuttering;Disconnect Living as a covert stutter for 20 years has left me with a catastrophic hole in my spirit, connection to others has been skewed for so much of my life that I feel completely inhu...

Personally, I've found that the more you try and plan your sentence or you think it over in your head, the more you end up setting yourself up to stutter. The less concious you are about it and the le...

No they don't, they just talk. They never had a need to think how to speak, only what they want to say. If there is anyone out there who knows how to become completely unself conscious, please let me ...

How do fluent people think before they speak?

How do fluent people think before they speak? It seems to me if I rehearse in my head what I wish to say, I will block on some words or I can't even get the sentence started. However, sometimes if I a...

Yeah man I know exactly what yore talking about! Often when I listen to myself talking in for example one of my video game live streams or some other recording, I often get surprised and cringe over h...

Haha yeah man. Its very rare that i listen to a recording of myself but when i do i realise i stutter a lot more than i think i do. Might be as you say that i focus on myself, but i remember beeing am...

What does stuttering feel like? Do I have one?

What does stuttering feel like? Do I have one? I've always been quiet and withdrawn. As I've gotten older I don't know if it has been my lack of communication or maybe traces of a stutter. Im very slo...

Nevermind how it's called, here's what you do: 1. Never, **ever**, try to force the word out. I know how impossible that feels, but if you get in the habit of forcing the word out, you **will** devel...

I was in speech therapy from 1st grade through 12th grade. I don't really remember much of what I worked on in those sessions, but for the most part, I believe it was just practicing lists of words wi...

listen to what is going on with how you feel. ask yourself the right questions. Not, "why cant I control it", but something useful like "what is happened to me/my airflow when I begin to speak on the ...

I think nobody ever recovered from stutter. They just learn to handle it. If it is possible, there would be many people talking about it. (there are several, but mostly because of advertisment and som...

Mostly I don't, but sometimes I tend to repeat a few words, especially when I talk fast, and the words just kinda jumble in my throat. That's my problem anyway, my brain processes faster than I can s...

I don't stutter in my head as in I'm having a thought and I stutter ex: "I sh-sh-should r-r-r-really be getting in the sh-shower and getting int-t-to bed soon". But rather I'll be going over something...

Same way, sometimes. I stall but my mind is still going, thinking of all the things I want/need to say and my mouth is still stalling. ...

not really, it's just difficult to get the word out and often times it's like a mental block too where I forget what i'm trying to say or I just get tongue tied. So in short, it feels more like it's ...

Speaking on the phone is tough because there is a time pressure to say something and the person calling can't see if you are struggling to speak. The first thing I do is let the phone ring a couple ti...
