I got rid of my childhood stutter near instantly when someone told me that it was becuase I was thinking three sentences ahead of where my mouth was. All I needed to do was slow down the "speech in your head". I could still think ahead; I just needed to not internally vocalize my future words, and it all went away like magic.
- vmception 6y agoSomething like that for me too when I was a toddler. It was a syncing issue. People consider me articulate and eloquent. When I'm not regulating I can still ramble until I'm out of breath. Never stuttering though. More like a mid-atlantic improv.
- wyxuan 6y agoOh god I feel like this describes me super well. I think my solution is to practice speaking a lot and act more relaxed. I never thought of this problem as stuttering, but other people have brought this exact same commentary up to me.

- msla 6y agoThis, plus trying to speak on empty lungs, was my problem when I was young.
