Sounds about right. Practicing my speech sometimes helps or when I have a good day, I tend to continue having a good mentality but my fluency does drop out of no where for no apparent reason. ...

It is well know that stuttering can be cyclical. Some people have stretches of day, weeks, even years having good fluency. I had a NSA chapter member who did not show up for almost 20-years. Then o...

Mine is seasonal. I'm literally fluent for like 3 months at a time and then start to stutter again. Mine is mild most of the time but sometimes moderate. I'm a medical mystery...

I will move my toes like you aid but I'll also imagine a neat in my head, and I'll try to speak on every fourth note if I have a good feeling. It'd crazy how speaking is so simple for most people. ...

Hmmm good question. As I think about it, the "stutter" tends to be more common in a run leading up to the start of a phrase. Let's see, how do I describe it... Say you have a song and the lyric is "Be...

It's possible because stutter varies a lot depending on the context. I know that's not a very detailed answer, but that's all we get for now (pending whatever research will be able to uncover more). ...

This has been posted before, search it up. But to sum it up, it affects everyone differently. Most times it is just temporary, for other people it gets worse. For me, its better that day but worse the...

My stutter is the same, comes in waves that last anything from a few weeks a year (seriously) to a few months. Nothing changes in the universe but it just starts again and can get really out of hand, ...

I don't believe this is uncommon, and believe it could the combination of several factors (if it was simply one or two, the trigger(s) would be clear). May I suggest keeping a general daily log/diary...

If we all have good periods, why do we just dismiss it as "periods". There is clearly something that catalyzes fluency and better speech. For instance, how can we train ourselves whether it be subcons...
