Same experience, during my bachelors, initially clearly able to speak "present" on my roll call during attendance, and one day suddenly not able to pronounce present, or stuttered. Shifted to "yes" wo...

I am not young anymore an have been dealing with stuttering for decades now. For most part successfully. And I agree with the OP far more than I agree with you. One of the big issues of stuttering i...

I had a presentation yesterday, didn't stutter much, but was criticised for being too fast. I was sweating anxiously; needing to finish fast was not my intention. I actually didn't care because I didn...

Yeah ,same I talking “super fast “ from a childhood,and can’t imagine talking slow (looks like retardet,so stuttering as hell but always talk fast)😆,when I’m alone I talk at normal speed,but with oth...

Yeh i used to speak faster when I was younger before I had other coping mechanisms. I used to speak in one breathe meaning I had to say a whole sentence or more before I needed to breathe as a way to ...

I sometimes notice myself speaking faster but those are when suddenly someone asks me a question and i have to answer it or explain something. Strangely tho i can get the words out of my mouth without...

The brain can only focus on one thing at a time. I focus on extreme pronunciation putting my thoughts on my lips while I say a word or if it's a first word I put a sound or a word in front of it and s...

Very interesting on the breathing. Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I haven't gone super deep on the breathing as you have, but I have had to slow down everything from breathing to enunciat...

What were the things you felt helped out the most with your stuttering? Was it the things you list above such as meditation, breathing, etc.? Did you try things like reading out loud consistently or t...

I hope it's ok to share this, but it doesn't feel right not to respond to your post here. I'm a professional singer and actor and private voice teacher. I spoke with a prominent stutter into my early ...

Personally, I would agree with your assessment. I think stuttering can be very different for different people, though. In my case, my stuttering has improved dramatically over the years. I chose to ...

A theory of mine about why singing and rhythmical/melodic speaking doesn't get affected by stuttering disorder Brain's typical laterality for speech production goes like this: The right hemisphere tak...

I'm really sorry you're going through this. That first lesson sounds incredibly stressful, and it makes complete sense that you're shaking right now. I want to validate something important: live, syn...

Management is often full of people spewing meaningless hot air management speak and accomplishing nothing. What worked for me was speaking plain-truth and having no fear in pointing out the elephant i...

I know this time will pass, and one day this will feel completely normal to me. But I’ve always seen a manager as someone who leads through communication, and speech naturally becomes an important par...

yeah a bit similar. There are some newer research that explores how "executive function" inhibits fluent speech. In simple terms; the stutter gets worse because you focus on it. So when yo...

I had the same type ever since I was a kid- yours, like mine, sounds heavily influenced by anxiety :( a couple things that have helped: If there no way around saying a certain word, shove some fluff...

Still stutter unfortunately. I find that I stutter less when someone asks me a spontaneous question and the answer isn’t thought out. The more I think of what I want to say or a question to ask the ha...

Hi! Great read, I’ve read most of this thread.  Got questions for you in regards to timing: Sanjeeva mentions it here as distraction, Proactive stimulus from the brain, based on anticipated action of ...
