Immense Anger towards it All (Covert Stuttering/Rant)

Immense Anger towards it All (Covert Stuttering/Rant) I am a covert stutterer....kinda. I would classify myself as semi-covert in that I no longer use any techniques, substitutions, or secondaries suc...

Sorry for posting this late. I teach high school math, and I've been doing so for almost a decade. I have been stuttering as long as I can remember. Growing up, I figured out ways to make my stutte...

I talk fast too, especially when I get excited or nervous, and it always makes the stuttering worse. What has helped me more than anything is to force myself to slow down. A lot of times when I get st...

My trick is to be slow at the very beginning. With the breathing and with the first sound. If I start too quick or rushed, its nearly impossible to slow things back down. Starting slow is the answer f...

I stuttered a little bit when I was about 5, but it went away. Then I started stuttering pretty bad when I was 11. You know what I think caused it? The September 11th attacks. At the beginning of ...

Reverse anxiety - does anybody else experience it?

Reverse anxiety - does anybody else experience it? Most of the stories I've heard about fluctuation of one persons stuttering intensity have been directy connected to anxiety,and how they usually expe...

this seems atypical to me... can you tell if anything important happened before that "outbreak";something that had big influence on you? (even if you haven't realized it yet) is there any case of car...

A dysfluent pattern of talking in which nervousness or anxiety is the only time it occurs is not a "typical" stuttering pattern. Dysfluencies occur due to various etiologies. It may be a secondary beh...

I have this. I stammer when anxious and also have tourettes ticks when stressed. I stutter regardless but it is extremely worse when in social situations. You're not the only one....
