I saw the same therapist when I was 10 and when I was 14 (horrible moment in school). Both times I went for a month but I didnt improve so I dropped it. Then I saw a different therapist when I was 19(...
Speech therapists are a mixed bag. There's helpful ones and unhelpful ones. I've been to three different ones, and the one I'm seeing right now is the only one whose actually helped me and taught (and...
Totally. I was scared as fuck about doing it, but at first we just did phone calls to another assistant in another room and built up to the scarier stuff. Stressful as hell but it was invaluable looki...
In my speech therapy we also went out and practiced. We would do fake surveys, we would make cold calls to businesses asking if they are open and what are their hours, and for graduation we took the t...
Speech therapy only held if you actively practice in real life. 1. Active practice by yourself and then forcing yourself to use techniques 'in public'. Do you ever record your conversations? Look in ...
>I've tried speech therapy during primary school but that didn't really help long term, **it helped for a brief period** That's totally worth something. It means something helped. Note that stutte...
> It took me about 2 years of weekly therapy to become fluent. I think it would pay us heed to note that fluency isn't best thought of as the expected outcome of speech therapy. What's important ...
> You're telling people to give up. I'm not telling people to give up. I'm saying the best solution is probably fluency shaping, and definitely not "hey kids, it doesn't matter how long it takes y...
Try fluency coach, as a high school student with a crap ton of talks in english it helped me out a lot. it’s made by the same people and it’s free ^-^...
No, but it's incredibly expensive, and it's not an easy fix. Delay audio feedback works for some people, doesn't for others. When it does work for people, they end up getting used to it and it doesn't...
That website I linked requires you to do daily excercises, at least for a good while after you’ve completed their course. If you can do that (which I failed to do for honesty sake) there’s no reason t...
Yeah I feel like it only works with the speech therapist and then when I’m with other people it doesn’t ...
A really unknown/underrated trick to improve stuttering/mumbling/stammering fairly quickly.
A really unknown/underrated trick to improve stuttering/mumbling/stammering fairly quickly. I slowly fixed my stuttering, stammering and mumbling by doing this trick. I made a youtube playlist of my ...
To each their own. My SLP says any gradual fluency will bring more fluency. She gives me the craziest techniques that she evens say I wouldn't do in front of people like rubbing my cheeks or moving my...
It could be if it's a good fit for you, has a good after therapy support and you put in the work afterwards. It's hard to say beforehand though. I have been to the 5 different types of intensive the...
It’s a tough road. However, now that my son is getting the proper treatment he’s doing much better. He knows how to get out of his dysfluencies. More importantly, it’s about giving him a sense of cont...
I was in speech therapy for 15 years, since age 3. My stutter used to be really bad but honestly, I didn't need it the last 2/3 years I was in it (I continued until my senior year of high school). S...
My wishful thinking makes me believe that the cause of it is my consistant training with my friend. The reality is that I don't really know. I've noticed that I started to use the techniques, that I h...
When I didn't know what to do I found a qualified professional. Maybe look for a speech therapist. Also focusing on a fluency was a downward path for me. Focusing on being ok stuttering and enj/just e...
