I started stuttering around first grade. It started very gradually and developed into full blown blocks, repetitions, etc by the time I hit age 10 or 11, at which point I started going to speech thera...

I'm working on getting this confirmed, but I got hit on the head super hard as a child--bicycle vs motor vehicle accident. When people are tired, as a rule, they tend to struggle a lot more with cogni...

I really have no idea. I started stuttering when my mother left for a month long trip. Could be total coincidence though....

When it returns as an adult--I'm an "adult stutterer" and I can't even *ask* my family if I stuttered as a kid, because they're the "we don't talk about it" type--apparently it's stress, life-events r...

I had a big insight the other day about stuttering and how my own habit has waned in the past, and waxed in other years. It seems to me that stuttering is a situation-based thing. A lot of people - ...

It's quite common for stutter to vary over time like that. I can have days - or even just periods within a day - where I stutter a lot, and then not long after, there won't be much left of it. Some p...

Hm that's interesting, mines kinda just random no "certain" sounds make me do it any more or less than any other sounds at any time...

I play games with friends and had a little interesting experiment with myself So I play a lot of Halo 5 Online, my main relaxer currently from College. I play in a company of around 100 other people f...

Sounds a bit too straighforward to me. I think I've experienced more variance in the degree of stuttering regardless of whether or not a sentence was "set" or "changeable". To me, at least, context is...

Everyone stutters differently, at different times, in different situations. When you're BSing, you're probably joking around, not worrying about speech as much or it's just an easier situation for you...

That's a good point. Stuttering is so variable that there are lots of times when I'm doing fine and it doesn't even cross my mind. ...

Do you stutter in your mind?

Do you stutter in your mind? The other day I was reading a book, I did not stutter. At one moment I started making up a situation in my mind and I started stuttering. The situation was reading out o...

Fluent during presentations, severe stutterer when communicating.

Fluent during presentations, severe stutterer when communicating. I have noticed that when i speak in front of an audience, i barely stutter at all and its not even noticable. But when i try to speak ...

How many of you think that the predisposition to developing a stutter can be passed on through genes, and whether one develops it depends on environment?

How many of you think that the predisposition to developing a stutter can be passed on through genes, and whether one develops it depends on environment? I just have a general question, just for fun.....

I only stutter on the beginning of sentences (knock on wood) and I go through what seems like peaks and troughs. For a couple weeks, I don't have much trouble. Then, for the next 1-2 months after that...

I don't think they have to be mutually exclusive. Since stuttering has strong genetic links and it's safe to assume that there is something different in how stutterers process linguistic rhythm, it ma...

stutter in dreams?

stutter in dreams? i just woke up from a dream and i realized i was stuttering in it. i wasn't in any high stress situation, i was just talking to my friend and i was speaking how i normally would hav...

Firstly I remind myself that this will pass. I didn't do anything when I have "good" times and I didn't do anything when I have "tough" times either. So I try to ride it out as easily as I can. I list...

I think we all can relate to this strange fact. One time we can say something fine, and a second later we block on the same word. Strange as it is! ...

I'm jaded about my stuttering and achieving fluency. I feel there is no rhyme or reason for fluency. I've stuttered for my whole life except for 3 months in the summer of 2010. (I'm now in my mid-30s....
