>Around 11th grade my stutter started coming back I have heard other people having the same experience. What the actual fuck? Why stutter comes back when you're in 11th (17 y/o or near)...

Mine fluctuates between periods of being extremely bad (which it is just now) and periods of being much better. It is very frustrating that I can’t figure out what causes this. I used to pay attention...

Do you guys know why your stuttering worsen sometimes?

Do you guys know why your stuttering worsen sometimes? Hi. Lately my stuttering really worsened. It's maybe 3 times worse than just 2 weeks ago. I'm not sure what happened and I'm trying to pinpoint ...

Same here, or I stutter out of the blue randomly and I'm like 'oh yeah i've had one for years'...

Some stutterers experience that. Some experience the inverse. I've experienced both things. Doesn't seem like there's any mechanic to it....

Humans have an uncanny ability to find patterns in things that are not there. Pair that with confirmation bias and BAM we have posts like this. Dehydration and diarrhea improve your stuttering. ...

Thanks for the replay. I feel kinda better now because you’re saying the exact same I am going through. The problem is (if you can call it a problem haha) that I don’t have to stutter every sentence, ...

Oh yeah, me too! What's weird is that in this case, *I'm* the authority figure. The only thing I can think of is that I'd had too much coffee the first time I spoke with her (coffee makes my stutter s...

I took part in an intensive 2 week speech therapy course, along with some more occasional speech therapy before that, but none of it seems to have helped. If anything it's become worse. It does still...

Thanks for your advice man! It was helpful :) I'm not really embarrassed about my stutter. I'm just afraid of making other people uncomfortable. The majority of people out there are nice and sympath...

Yea I get really frustrated when my stuttering impedes the timing of jokes... most maddening thing ever...

>most of us don't stutter while alone, or around certain people / certain circumstances And sometimes we do. Variance like that needs to be accounted for, explanatory-wise....

I'm just sharing what's helped me, and the only theory that makes sense to my situation, and many others. This guy's helped a lot of people. Why is it there's way more stutterers in western countries...

>The mechanism that causes stuttering (in the physical sense) appears to be somewhere in the voice box / vocal cords. No, there's no scientific consensus about anything like that. >When it isn...
