    My crutch isn’t in Lovedude’s book–it’s the choral effect!!! Works for me!!

    What if one is so passionate and speak like a king but still stutter?? Not trying to be negative!!! But it can happen!!!!

    People that stutter still can have the gift of the gab ya know!!!!!!!!!!!

    I don’t like getting positive comments like “you sound great adam! Hardly stuttering!!” It’s bad Karma!!! It’s a reminder that things could go downhill when I’m doing great! It’s like a reminder of what I was……or still could be……

    Speaking on the phone??? I simply speak over the person as they are speaking to get that choral effect going…and it’s not meant to be rude to them. It’s to help me out.

    I simple start out by not holding the ear piece of the phone into my ear….I hold the ear piece of the phone away from my ear, and start to speak excitedly and speak over the other person—–that’s gets words out easier!!! If folks think it’s rude for me to speak over them when in fact it helps me…..that’s their problem…not mine!!!

    Come on-we all text!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ya know what I hate….most of the world texts….but someone knows you MAY OR MAY NOT STUTTER and they call you anyway!!! when they could text!!!!! Only call when it’s an emergency!!!!!!!!! Some people I know do that to me..call me when they could text..and they know who they are!!!

    I always sound dramatic and act over dramatic anyway stutter or not!!!!! I always wanted to be a clown or actor!!!! My behavior is totally over-dramatic!!!! It as nothing to do with stuttering…..just how I am. Does being over-dramatic decrease stuttering?? MAYBE……but dramatic is simply my behavior having nothing to do with how I sound!!! FLAMBOYANT–I love flamboyant!

    How do we know in time what words we will stutter on before we are able to avoid that word????

    Yes….playing 30 questions and telling stories about a impending stuttered word are great ways to beat around the bush!!!! But it’s better to get right to the point and be direct!!!

    Planning words…..it’s like reading aloud privately….the words are on the page!!!! The words are planned-they are on the page….

    I never ever plan words in my life, but a person can still stutter even if they aren’t planning words and speaking off the cuff…..most probably don’t think of crutches. Probably our thoughts are just say it however we can and don’t think crutches. I have never thought about words as I say them….I never have planned words!!! Does that mean we don’t stutter if we don’t plan words!???? We can still stutter if we don’t plan words….at least that was my xperience before………..!!
