For me, it was exercises teaching easy onset and breathing. Afterwards, even when I wasn't consciously using these techniques, I noticed a huge difference in fluency. ...

Yeah, we done a couple of sessions then I got a recording to use at home for the next month or so but didn't really make a difference on me....

I tried doing it for 30 days listening to a recording that was about 30 mins long. I personally didn't see any noticeable differences my stutter but you never know, could work for some people. I think...

We have found that there has been quite a significant improvement since he started speech therapy. We only started pushing for it once he started becoming aware of it and when he started becoming awar...

Lol, well first off, I've been away from reddit for the weekend and haven't gotten a chance to go into that yet, and a lot of those questions came after the initial Qs. That, and as I mentioned in an...

I had a horrid stutter as a child. Had 6 years or so of speech therapy with a great teacher. Singing in choir also helped me a ton. I still have a stutter in certain situations, most people don't noti...

I just filled one out. In a nutshell, I practice meditation, yoga, and have done speech therapy. I no longer use strategies i've learned from speech therapy but would consider meditation integral i...

I've found that if I don't focus on what I'm saying, I don't stutter as much.

I've found that if I don't focus on what I'm saying, I don't stutter as much. Far too many speech therapists say to focus on how you say a word, but in my case, not focusing on how I talked helped me ...

You hit the nail on the head sir. I learned a new way of speaking through the mcguire programme. It uses costal muscles rather than your diaphragm for speaking and I've ultimately been creating a new ...

I'd also like to add Dave McGuire and "Beyond Stuttering" by him. It's the only method that has worked for me....

I think fluency is a perfectly acceptable goal. I don't think it's the only acceptable goal to have. For many people who stutter the severity of stuttering is so great that while achieving stutter-fre...

Yeah i think all involved parts stutter in the program, but it really doesent matter. There is well, a lot of techniques. I think most important part is how we train them. Lots of "real world" scenari...

Hi! My speech therapy took a very long time, a total of about 10 years and in total about 10 therapists (most were in the last couple of years though, therapist came more and more popular with people...

A friend of mine (who also stutters) recommended it, so I ordered the book. I still stutter quite a lot and have my ups and downs but now I'm able to successfully control a block during speech much be...

Did you read the Valsalva book independently? Or was it recommended to you? Have you completely overcome your stutter or does it continue to return in times of general anxiety/frustration?...

What has worked for me: - "I don't give a damn" attitude, - focusing on my purpose and role in speech, seeing myself from outside during speech - being angry always works but obviously I can't use i...

Went to my first McGuire course a year ago (i think?). Very good but the effect "wears off" after some time and im going to my second soon. Hippotherapy seems weird as fuck. Im open to contact on sk...

Many people including my speech therapist suggested that I should not substute the word. If a word starts with p and I stutter, and I substute, I would never speak words starting with p easily....

Hehe, exactly the same here. Almost perfect at therapy, and terrible outside. Make the therapist aware of that. Maybe it helps if you train your speech skills in front of a mirror at home....

Need a little advice: Speech is 70% better while in therapy session....goes back to terrible outside of session.

Need a little advice: Speech is 70% better while in therapy session....goes back to terrible outside of session. Hey guys, I've been going to therapy now for around 4-5 months. It's taken at least 3 ...
