JD Daniel I looked up (stuttering.)I stutter too and have had issues with stuttering since I was very young.I give you a lot of credit for doing this video.You're inspiring!!!
I hate it when I'm talking to somebody and when I start to stutter the person I'm talking to tries to finish my sentence for me.I really can't stand that.
I just typed in stuttering and it came up... I come from a large family that stutters. My daughter stutters and I like to show her videos of others just like her...she refers too her stutter as a glitch in her wiring and says even though she has one she still works just as good as every one else.
I describe stuttering the same way. It feels like you have a bunch of air inside of you that you can't push out. I hate it so much. It makes me feel more comfortable knowing that there are other people going through the same thing... But it also sucks because we have to go through this. You're so brave and i hope to see more videos from you!
its so fucking annoying. i have been struggling with it since i was 9 years old and i am now 18. the stupid thing is why do i stutter when im not dumb. I mean, I am in university and always have the highest grades in my class, so why am i not able to perform such a task (speaking normally) that comes off so easy for less ''smart'' people. do you know what i mean... its so weird and stupid.
Hey, Yeah I had to do my fair share of presentations in front of the class. Sometimes when i was in a really bad ''stutter'' mood, i choked and stuttered while presenting. This fucking sucked. But other times when I did not stutter that much the presentations were ''doable''. Still i think that if I would never have stuttered that my last 10 years would have looked very, very different.
I agree. I have been stuttering ever since I was 6 and have always tried to get rid of it, but it never worked. This week I'm going to Hollins Communications Research Institute where they will teach me valuable skills and tools to help me get rid of my suttering. I am very excited and hope to learn new things there 😁
I’ve had my stutter since I can remember I even have baby videos of me stuttering so I understand it all and I may not get over it but I will keep trying and I want you to keep trying aswell
I am a bad stutterer, and watching you talk...I felt every struggle you had while trying to talk. I admire you for being so brave to post this. I don't talk in my videos. Keep up the good work.
When i get stuck on a word. I change the word i am trying to say. So like, i stutter when someone asks me my name alot. So if i stutter when trying to say "Justin". I'll just say, "my name is justin". Or try and laugh while talking a bit. Like bursts of air.
Nova StrykerHD That's called avoidance behaviour which only builds fear in the long run. You need to avoid avoiding stutter, start looking people in the eye when you stutter and stop substituting words, making facial grimaces and whatever. I recommend "Self-theraphy for the stutterer" by Malcom Fraser, you can find the .pdf online.
You're so cute and you definitely don't have to apologize for your stuttering! I'm so glad you have a positive approach to it when it's so much easier to be negative. I'm glad it hasn't stopped you from making videos!
Wow this was the first time I've ever heard someone with a stutter and paid attention to the struggle. Talking is so impulsive for me I doubt I'll ever fully understand the feeling.. It makes me think of being in a speaking coma, like your awake inside but can't communicate the information how you would like. You are a brave person, keep it up!
for me, stuttering is really weird , my first language is Arabic and i sometimes stutter so bad when i speak Arabic ,but when i speak English... pooff its gone
When I was a teenager I experienced the same. My mother tongue is Spanish, and I ever had problems with it since I was 7 years old. But when I was speaking in English, my stuttering was going away. However, few years later I started to stutter in English too. :( Now I'm in college, and I stutter more in English than in Spanish. Is there anything worse? I got into German classes, and I had to leave them because I noticed that was really hard to speak in a foreign language.
I'm 18 year old from the UK and I totally know how it feels, it feels like it holds you back from a lot of things and I know we all hate it. But all it comes down to is confidence in your speech, mine started when I was 12/13 years old and it suddenly stopped when i was 15/16 and now when i realise is because I was so confident and I know with hard work and taking on the biggest fears to boost our confidence we can overcome it, all we need it help and to speak to each other and we can do it. Also don't be sorry you're awesome and I have massive respect for you for making this video, YOUR THE MAN!
I'm 14 and female. I have never stuttered before in my life until 5-4 months ago. Along with the stutter I also developed a lisp. I'm not 100% sure why my speech impediment developed but I went through a lot of mental and emotional trauma 5 months ago and that may be why it developed. Every time I speak in class I have to repeat what I said about 5 times because no one can really understand what I was trying to say. My very good guy friend has had a stutter sense he started to talk so I'm not alone and he never judges me. ☺️😊☺️ To everyone that has a speech impediment don't be bothered by what people say to you, love who you are.
Megatron For Life due to my hard years of studying me and my sinctest discovered that if you change that stupid profile pic and name you will be..........TO BE CONTINUED..... ...
Megatron For Life omg girl I get you so much!! I'm 14 and I just started to stutter this week! I went through a lot of emotional problems and stress , and I've just started to. it's weird. I'm happy I found someone who relates
I have a stutter too and I have to repeat myself most of the time because my voice is deep and I kinda talk low. And I hate it whenever I say it the first time with out stuttering and they say “what?” And I have to repeat myself then I start stuttering cause I think about it too much and builds up pressure which makes me stutter more
Jeezo bro, i feel for you, i know what you're going through, not just physically, but mentally. I've had a stutter since i was aged 10, i'm 41 now and life has been difficult at the best of times. It feels like i can't breathe at times, the word sits in my mind as i contemplate how to begin to say it. You remind me of how i was in my younger days. I was with you as you struggled to get the words out, i was feeling the same emotions, fighting the same barriers you are. You're a hero, it's extremely difficult to bare your soul to people, but you just bared your soul to the world....well done, that's one huge hurdle you've conquered.
I'm really happy to see that someone can come out and make a video like this. DON'T EVER apologize for who you are or feel that you are any less. I developed a stutter when I was about 7 and have had it ever since. there are ups and downs but it's what makes you, YOU!! it's something that makes you unique.
I really admire your courage to make this video JD. I have been a stutterer since i can remember. I have been working on my speech since i was 15 till now, at 27. It has gotten better over the years and i can almost speak freely, but that's not always the case. I don't think it will ever go away because I still think the way i do. I am a stutter and I'm ok with that. My biggest problem was not breathing. I held in my speech with my breathe, instead of letting my speech come out with my breathe. Always breathe. Practice to breath. Meditation has helped me a ton. Got me in tune with my mind, my breathe, my body, and i guess my soul. It's not an overnight thing but overtime it will pay off. Keep it up.
hey I started Stuttering at 3 years old I'm now 52 an at times I still stutter just like you . it's can be Hell if you let take over your life if you need to talk I would happy to talk about my experiences please let me know . Your very brave putting your self out there I only stutter now when I get nervous my Stuttering started getting less an less after I was 18 take care
It takes so much courage to make a video like this and I can totally get you when you describe your stutter. You really feel to have a burden in your chest which you can't get rid of. I don't have a very serious kind of stutter but in the last two years it really affected my life. For instance, I can't introduce myself to someone because I totally get blocked when I have to pronounce my name. The thing I always keep saying to myself is not to give in. We can't let this problem influence our lives. I know it's five years you uploaded this video, but I really hope you are doing well! Let's keep on fighting, we are all amazing
Thank you for making this video. I don't have a stutter, but I have a lisp, and I hate the feeling of being afraid to talk. Speech impediments are the worst.
Natalia I know what that’s like in my elementary and beginning of middle school years I stayed quiet 2-6 I felt ashamed of speaking saying words wrong and in Pre-school I wouldn’t speak my family native language of Montenegrin or English but a weird mixture of both where it began.... now I’m like a social butterfly and have gotten much better but sadly I don’t speak to much Montenegrin but I understand it fluently!
BigManLund66 BigManLund66 I stutter too I didn't when I was younger but now i just suddenly got it and I notice it's getting worse and I mean it's got more noticible it use to be like 1 or 2 a day but now it's nearly every sentence I hate it as I have got to repeat sentences as people don't understand but I don't now what my friends are going to make of it as I haven't seen them this summer break and it's got worse alot worse but don't listen to the bullies that are just jelouse and never take what they say to heart just ignore it if they say anything just say okay rather than fight back
I really appreciate hearing someone else put what I deal with into words so well. ive also noticed the techniques you use in your videos, and they've been really helping me improve my own stutter:)
You are so brave and courageous! I stutter just like you, my words just get stuck and it takes a long time for the words to come out. I always try to hide the fact that I have stuttering. And I just realized that my stuttering is what makes me who I am. Hopefully in the future I could be as brave as u r right now! Seriously buddy ur a great role model for me and people who stutter! Thank you so much for being such an inspiration! 😊
I like to think that my stutter has made me a more compassionate person. It took me so long to learn not to loathe it. People will try to make its virtues out to be flaws - I hope you don't/won't let that get to you. :)
mit mop I stutter and im using this thing. Its when you pretend to sing, like when yu sing you stuttering goes away, so pretend to are singing or just song a bit on the words your stuck on. If you are stuck on a word try to sing it out. If that doesnt help then try to read stories out loud, ( poems help a lot ) and do that for a a couple of weeks and it will either reduce it, help it, or gets rid of your stuttering. I hope that helps you, ive been using the singing one and it kind of helps by I still stutter and I'm to lazy to use the reading one. I am not a doctor of anything I'm just a kid that looks up stuff and reads things about it- wait, I should read it out loud! but yeah i hope it helps you in anyway!
Hi. I am from mongolia. I am 20 years old and I stutter like you do. Even worse in some situations. It probably started when I was 6 or 7. It got worse over years. I am a Christian. As a Christian for me it was hard to except this condition. I was tired of it. I was angry at God. But now I know that my stutter is not just a mistake or something random. God always has a plan. I don't know if you are a Christian or not but I truly hope, and I will pray for your salvation. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.(1 Corinthians 1:27)
Aww, the courage and inspiration in this video is truly incredible. Probably has become one of my favourite videos on youtube. For some reason began to stutter a fair bit more in recent years. I've met those who have for as long as they can remember and they're some of the most awesome folks I know.
i know how it feels completely. ive been stuttering for most of my life. im 16 and it sucks when i turn down calling people/ restaurants etc. im even afraid to talk to people because i dont want to see their reaction to my stuttering. it sucks.. but its comforting to know im not alone.
I absolutely know how you feel bud, I also "have a speech impediment" since as long as I can remember. I'm in my late 30's and I have had a rough upbringing because of it. Don't EVER apologize, there are millions of people in this world that stutter and some are famous actors and voice overs. I salute you for your bravery to take the time out and try to explain what it feels like. To me, we are all born unique in our own way and should never apologize for the cards that we were dealt with in life. Keep your head up and find that confidence within you and you'll notice that you will start to substitute words for others but in the end you do get you point across. If no one can except you for what they presume a flaw in you, then they do not need to be in your life period. I have accomplished more things within my first 30 years on this earth than others have in their lifetime. Have also noticed that we are more of the kind hearted spirit than others, think about it. Keep up the great job bud and stay positive, YOLO, so surround yourself with positive people and you'll see that your not alone.
So grateful that you're willing to put yourself out there by posting this video. Super helpful for speech-language pathologists and students wanting to learn more about the experience of stuttering.
The "s" sound is a very common stutter trigger. I experienced it pretty much everyday when my stutter was really bad and it also just felt like I couldn't speak at all, like the words were unable to leave my mouth. Its really ironic that the word stutter begins with an "s" but I kind of feel like that word was made by non-stutterers, 99 percenters as I call them, who knew the "s" sound is a common trigger. The literal words "speech" and "speak" also starts when an "s". Sometimes I would bang my fist or tap my fingers on a surface a couple of times just to get a word out. Some people think a slow internet connection is frustrating or getting a lot of ads or emptying the recycle bin, imagine struggling to say a simple sentence like "How was your day" on a daily basis. People dont realize how lucky they are. Its truly inspiring to see people with stutters speak openly and without fear. This video made my day. Its nice to know that Im not alone in the struggle.
Wow, this is unbelivable. Never would I have thought to reach one hundred thousand views on a video. Thanks everyone tremendously for your support :) Be on the lookout for a new video soon (promise this time haha)
Really appreciate you putting yourself out there like this. I suffer from the SAME problem, my stuttering issues being stress related. I find it really annoying to stutter in front of people while reading in class, talking to friends etc... because they always laugh about it when I'm just trying to get words out and they have NO idea about how hard it is to get over blocks and other things that are involved with stuttering. So, big props to you for having the courage to make this video and don't let the stuttering problems get in your head, were all different. :)
does anybody get this: I almost never stutter but when I try to tell a funny story or a joke or something really important I start stopping and my words get stuck in my mouth does anybody else have any tips
I have a stutter as well, and I was curious as to if other stutterers felt the same way I do about our disability. Thank you for making this video, dude. People should know what it’s like to have a stutter.
Nice video man , I've stuttering over past 3 years and I've got use to it but in some situations like reading in front of the whole class out loud and speaking to people that i never met before just makes me stutter a lot and i feel very embarrassed , I even went to a speech therapist and she has told me some techniques to overcome with stuttering like singing your words and take deep breathes after a comma or a full stop and it has helped me a lot so I hope you can overcome stuttering :D
I have stuttering and it's annoying af. I also apologize when I stutter because I think that I'm wasting someone's time. In reality, stuttering isint that bad if u don't think about it. and some people actually find it cute. I just found ur channel, and I subscribed in a flash!
You have nothing to apologize for. What you are doing is so important, courageous, and helpful for other people who stutter and student speech therapists who are interested in providing empathetic and effective treatment to people who stutter. You've taken something many see as a "problem" and turned it into a means of helping tens of thousands of people (maybe more.)
You don't need to apologise mate, we all understand! ; ) Good luck with your stutter, hopefully it will go in a few years! It makes you you so don't let it put you down! You are AWESOME 😃
thank you for this video. my son stutters and it's hard to know what he's feeling or going through sometimes. so your videos have been incredibly helpful for me as his mom to better understand what he's going through
As a person who stutters I get you my man. I would say it is something that you cannot control. It just happens. To me, it is like my brain stops. Luckily, mine isn't that bad anymore and being a biology major in school I understand why it happens. But basically it is like my mind and throat turn off and I can't speak. It is bizarre but I have friends and family who accept it and they have to accept me for who I am. Thanks for the video, it means a lot to people like me. But don't ever apologize for it, it is part of whom you are. Keep your head up, you can't help it like me and there are people like you out there.
Hi Daniel . My name is Liz... I'm 18 and I have a stuttering problem too . Watching your video made me really emotional in a good way ( I couldn't stop crying ) because I completely understand your pain. You are so brave for making a video , I couldn't have even done it for being really embarrassed . You are now my idol because I know you have inspired many as you have me .. so Thank You so much for that ! :)
I relate to this video so much. Never apologise for having a stutter because it's not your fault. One way I deal with my stutter is owning it. If someone ever says anything to me i just say yeah and what once you do that no one can make fun of you because you own it and your not giving them the reaction they want. A few techniques I have learnt from my speech therapist is sliding. Sliding is when you prolong the first letter of your word or sentence. This doesn't work for everyone it all depends on who you are. Another technique is stopping taking 3 deep breaths and starting again. U r a really cool dude and u should never let anyone drag u down because they're only jealous of your level of confidence and maturness.
Hold on there brother. I am 20 and I stutter exactly like you. It is worse in front of camera so you are very brave to cam it. My advice is simple, just take a breath before speaking and do not rush yourself. Nothing worth the rush.
As a stutterer of 15 years I relate to this so much. I have to work so much harder than everyone else to show that I’m more than my stammer. You use that um as much as you want mate I use it aswell it’s just a habit, a bad one, but helps so much. I was in tears watching this as I know the struggle of fluency and stuttering. Keep being you ❤️
oh I was also stuttering , now I have always no problem anymore , so keep calm and motivated and don't listen to people who want to make you mad, take your time , greetings from Mexico , robert
i sometimes stutter and usually struggle starting a sentence because i have so many things on my mind. happens alot when i'm nervous or scared welcome to ADHD :)
You are so very brave for making this video. I myself too have a stutter and honestly it's wonderful to be able to see something this natural and uncensored on the internet to make us all realize we aren't the only ones out there with this issue. I have always had my stutter since I was very young and it has improved greatly, but it is still there. Especially when making phone calls, or saying my first and last name. It's a definite. I currently don't have a video camera but once I get one, I would love to shoot a video reply your way. I've never thought about making videos about my stutter to be able to push through it, but you seriously may be onto something here. Most importantly... DON'T APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR STUTTER OR YOUR ACTIONS BECAUSE OF IT.
stuttering can be okay/ good because it a part of my life but sometimes it can be annoying if am doing a presentation, going for interviews or even expressing myself my stutter get so much worst! the technique I use to stop stuttering less is to speak with a different accent.. like I try to use a sort of like a British/ English accent it help me .. of instead of using my real accent because of my stuttering stuttering is like bipolar!!!
I think it's super brave of you to make a video like this. Thanks so much. I'm a person who stutters also and it helps so much seeing other people struggling with it, too. Hope to see more of your stuff.
Brianna Soto yes there are. You have "open stuttering" and "hidden stuttering" this type what you see above is open stuttering. You just can't get out of your words what are you trying to say. Hidden stutterers ( what i am ) are finding an other way to say something else with the exact same meaning but other words. Sometimes they skip words because they know they are gonna stutter at some words. I have my stutter in control by alot of practising en hard work. But even now i have ups and downs. I am a Fitness and Volleyball trainer and i enjoy life every second now. And i got alot of respect for this guy posting things like this on youtube. I feel you bro 👊🏻
Brianna Soto I stutter, I'm 14, but it's not as bad as this guys one, I don't talk a lot, but when I do I change my words and sometimes I can't say them they just don't come out of my mouth and it sounds very weird.
Yeah I have the type of stuttering called "hidden stuttering" but sometimes if I'm under pressure while talking I forget to change my wording and get stuck on words. I got teased but then I started sticking up for myself and one if the boys that teased me is a good friend now!
There are many different types of stutter. Most stutterers get stuck on consonants, but the troublesome consonants can vary ("L" is very difficult for me, but it might be "M" for someone else). Other stutterers get stuck on vowels. Some might block in the middle of words; some only get stuck on the initial letters. One common trait I've noticed among stutterers is "letting go" of the "S" sound. Stuttering is basically unique to the stutterer. No two are exactly alike. 🙂
Don’t ever be sorry!! You got a message!! And you are brave! The problem problem is with the one who listen, and not you!! People just don’t understand us! Well their problem! A fellow stutterer. You can be anything you want!!
wow ..i have a few friends who stutter as well and it is difficult for them everyday but i've never seen it at this level...you got mad courage and i pray things will get better for you!! keep your head up you'll get through this
WOWWW I never knew it had to do with airways this is the first video I’ve found that isn’t like “idk....it’s not fun” it’s a great explanation of EXACTLY what it feels like
From another stutterer, you're so brave for doing this video. The best advice I was given was to overcome and control the stutter and not let it overcome and control me. Best of luck!
I stutter and talk exactly like you.... I was so suprised to find someone who talks exactly and I mean exactly like me... This is so damn personal for me and I feel so damn connected to this.... To all those who stutter... You are not alone! We are a family... We watch out for each other....
Hi ! I stutter also, almost same as you are. I so admire you for having courage to speak about it and make videos and speak in general. All my life I've been running from public speaking, from communicating to a bigger crowd of people, and you gave me now courage to start doing it, no matter what. If you ever want to talk to someone, you can contact me. God bless you !
I need some friends who stutter too, because my friends don't understand stuttering and I just need someone that does. Oh and im 17 and I like sarcasm harry potter and once upon a time. Im known as the clown at school ;)
Hi, Im from Poland ;3 im a boy, i stutter too sometimes, ive got facebook, my name is Piotrek Patalon, that will be a young boy with emo hair ;D Im waiting
I understand, I stutter too. I hate giving presentations because every person in the room is watching stutter. It takes forever to say what your saying. It's really embarrassing sometimes. Thank you for making this video, I really appreciate it 😀😄☺️
I'm sorry. I stutter too and it really sucks when someone asks me my name and then when I say my name, I stutter and afterwards I feel terrible for stuttering. I've been stuttering ever since I was 8 and I hate it so much. I don't want speech therapy because then I'll have to talk and i hate talking sometimes because of my stutter
Hey JD, I just wanted to let you know that I also stutter. I understand you are going through! Stuttering isn't fun, but it also opens many doors for you to let the world know about stuttering. Keep making videos and making the world know about stuttering more and more. You are amazing!
Hang in there dude. I've had a stutter since childhood (28 now) but still suffer when under stress/nerves/anxiety. Kids at school make it suck so much more but screw them. YOU CAN DO IT
I relate so much,its painful.I understand everything you are doing and saying.I seriously appreciate you so much!I look up to you because i am not that comfortable with my own stutter.
I am 21 years old, and I have been stuttering since my first memory. Not all people who stutter are confident and strong, including me. I can't stand the fact that I need to do presentations in front of people in university, but I'd love to. It is like an inner conflict and fighting, it brings me headaches. I don't really stutter as much as you. Sometimes I take a deep breath and start talking very slow that the beginning of each word comes out slowly. Hell I can't say my name if someone asks me. xD I hope one day there will be a cure for this, because a lot of people who stutter get no proper support (including me) and we really don't deserve it.
Hey! As an aspiring SLP I would love to hear about your experiences with a speech therapist. Also, what's the update with JD today? How are you doing? How is your stutter? In graduate school class, we are using your video to help us understand stuttering better. Thanks for sharing!
I can totally relate, I've have stuttering all my life, it has cause me a lot of anxiety but also it lets me talk to other people about it. No need to apologize.
I really liked this video, I developed a stutter when I was about 9, and I don't think people exactly understand how they work, so I think it's important to educate people :) keep up the good content!!!
omg, I talk like you, I tend to stutter time to time and I get sad because sometimes I talk, and people don't understand what I say and they just mock me, sometimes they just mean it as a joke, but it's still makes me self-concius. But I'm really proud of you and you're really admirable! I wish you the best of the best!
You are so inspiring. I know this is difficult and takes a lot of courage. You are to be admired. Please don't stop what you are doing. You are speaking for a lot of people that wish they could do the same. God bless you.
don't apologize....you have nothing to be sorry for
bamaman he did nothing wrong.
Brenton Gandy I shutter to
Michael Dust you must be real happy with the way your life turned out
True
@Michael Dust wow look a asshole
I really like to make ppl like him feel comfortable and accepted, cause its not his fault and he seems cool asf
Kil Eddy dude, thanks so much
Thank yu my man
Second that.
Ikr, he’s also fine asf
Agree
People get mad at me when I stutter because they want me to speed up my talking and because I get stuck on words...
That's terrible, take your time, I have to slow myself down and pronounce my words. Take your time!(:
same its sad
Jocy TM Awe😢❤️
Jocy TM Same.
Hey, if they dont have time to talk, send them on their way.
They are the ones missing out.
question to everyone: how did you find my video??
JD Daniel I found this video from a comedian that stutters so I was like how to de people stutter
JD Daniel I looked up (stuttering.)I stutter too and have had issues with stuttering since I was very young.I give you a lot of credit for doing this video.You're inspiring!!!
I hate it when I'm talking to somebody and when I start to stutter the person I'm talking to tries to finish my sentence for me.I really can't stand that.
Elusive Anomaly same, I literally can not stand that either
I just typed in stuttering and it came up... I come from a large family that stutters. My daughter stutters and I like to show her videos of others just like her...she refers too her stutter as a glitch in her wiring and says even though she has one she still works just as good as every one else.
You are a cutie! Don't ever apologize for stuttering.
It's ok
Who ever disliked this video has no soul
u right
@@megatsky439 oof
Frl they don't got no heart nor soul
I describe stuttering the same way. It feels like you have a bunch of air inside of you that you can't push out. I hate it so much. It makes me feel more comfortable knowing that there are other people going through the same thing... But it also sucks because we have to go through this. You're so brave and i hope to see more videos from you!
its so fucking annoying. i have been struggling with it since i was 9 years old and i am now 18. the stupid thing is why do i stutter when im not dumb. I mean, I am in university and always have the highest grades in my class, so why am i not able to perform such a task (speaking normally) that comes off so easy for less ''smart'' people. do you know what i mean... its so weird and stupid.
+Ryan Wiebe Baron you are theon greyjoy you can do anything
Hey,
Yeah I had to do my fair share of presentations in front of the class. Sometimes when i was in a really bad ''stutter'' mood, i choked and stuttered while presenting. This fucking sucked. But other times when I did not stutter that much the presentations were ''doable''. Still i think that if I would never have stuttered that my last 10 years would have looked very, very different.
I agree. I have been stuttering ever since I was 6 and have always tried to get rid of it, but it never worked. This week I'm going to Hollins Communications Research Institute where they will teach me valuable skills and tools to help me get rid of my suttering. I am very excited and hope to learn new things there 😁
I’ve had my stutter since I can remember I even have baby videos of me stuttering so I understand it all and I may not get over it but I will keep trying and I want you to keep trying aswell
i stutter, i hate it. it feels like i can't make new friends cos of my confidence. i am very lucky to have friends that care for me.
It's Yazziee I got no friends and I stutter
It’s Yazziee Same... Want to be friends?
Same.i stutter so much
It's Yazziee same
Same here. It’s very nice to have people to relate to for once. Sorry about your stuttering, hope it goes away someday.
I am a bad stutterer, and watching you talk...I felt every struggle you had while trying to talk. I admire you for being so brave to post this. I don't talk in my videos. Keep up the good work.
When i get stuck on a word. I change the word i am trying to say. So like, i stutter when someone asks me my name alot. So if i stutter when trying to say "Justin". I'll just say, "my name is justin". Or try and laugh while talking a bit. Like bursts of air.
Same for me, it's hard to say my name sometimes and it kinda sucks :')
Nova StrykerHD same omg
Nova StrykerHD That's called avoidance behaviour which only builds fear in the long run. You need to avoid avoiding stutter, start looking people in the eye when you stutter and stop substituting words, making facial grimaces and whatever. I recommend "Self-theraphy for the stutterer" by Malcom Fraser, you can find the .pdf online.
Nova StrykerHD I feel u bro I have to spell my last name out because I can't say I first with out studdering really bad😩😔
Lexi Grace Fr 😔
I have a stutter and trust me, getting multiple words out feels amazing 🙂
You're so cute and you definitely don't have to apologize for your stuttering! I'm so glad you have a positive approach to it when it's so much easier to be negative. I'm glad it hasn't stopped you from making videos!
Finally someone noticed that he's so cute 🥰😚
Wow this was the first time I've ever heard someone with a stutter and paid attention to the struggle. Talking is so impulsive for me I doubt I'll ever fully understand the feeling.. It makes me think of being in a speaking coma, like your awake inside but can't communicate the information how you would like. You are a brave person, keep it up!
for me, stuttering is really weird , my first language is Arabic and i sometimes stutter so bad when i speak Arabic ,but when i speak English... pooff its gone

TooPy i am exactily like you btw i m arab too
When I was a teenager I experienced the same. My mother tongue is Spanish, and I ever had problems with it since I was 7 years old. But when I was speaking in English, my stuttering was going away. However, few years later I started to stutter in English too. :(
Now I'm in college, and I stutter more in English than in Spanish. Is there anything worse? I got into German classes, and I had to leave them because I noticed that was really hard to speak in a foreign language.
TooPy same here my national language is Urdu but when i speak English i stutter less or not at all.
I'm 18 year old from the UK and I totally know how it feels, it feels like it holds you back from a lot of things and I know we all hate it. But all it comes down to is confidence in your speech, mine started when I was 12/13 years old and it suddenly stopped when i was 15/16 and now when i realise is because I was so confident and I know with hard work and taking on the biggest fears to boost our confidence we can overcome it, all we need it help and to speak to each other and we can do it. Also don't be sorry you're awesome and I have massive respect for you for making this video, YOUR THE MAN!
I'm 14 and female. I have never stuttered before in my life until 5-4 months ago. Along with the stutter I also developed a lisp. I'm not 100% sure why my speech impediment developed but I went through a lot of mental and emotional trauma 5 months ago and that may be why it developed. Every time I speak in class I have to repeat what I said about 5 times because no one can really understand what I was trying to say. My very good guy friend has had a stutter sense he started to talk so I'm not alone and he never judges me. ☺️😊☺️ To everyone that has a speech impediment don't be bothered by what people say to you, love who you are.
Megatron For Life due to my hard years of studying me and my sinctest discovered that if you change that stupid profile pic and name you will be..........TO BE CONTINUED..... ...
Megatron For Life omg girl I get you so much!! I'm 14 and I just started to stutter this week! I went through a lot of emotional problems and stress , and I've just started to. it's weird. I'm happy I found someone who relates
Everyone involved in this video and comments are so strong and beautiful!! We love you all!
I have a stutter too and I have to repeat myself most of the time because my voice is deep and I kinda talk low. And I hate it whenever I say it the first time with out stuttering and they say “what?” And I have to repeat myself then I start stuttering cause I think about it too much and builds up pressure which makes me stutter more
I started stuttering when I was 4... I’m 11 now,and I still stutter... I have 5 friends in school,but I get bullied a lot....
You are good looking😌
Jeezo bro, i feel for you, i know what you're going through, not just physically, but mentally.
I've had a stutter since i was aged 10, i'm 41 now and life has been difficult at the best of times. It feels like i can't breathe at times, the word sits in my mind as i contemplate how to begin to say it.
You remind me of how i was in my younger days. I was with you as you struggled to get the words out, i was feeling the same emotions, fighting the same barriers you are.
You're a hero, it's extremely difficult to bare your soul to people, but you just bared your soul to the world....well done, that's one huge hurdle you've conquered.
I'm really happy to see that someone can come out and make a video like this. DON'T EVER apologize for who you are or feel that you are any less. I developed a stutter when I was about 7 and have had it ever since. there are ups and downs but it's what makes you, YOU!! it's something that makes you unique.
I really admire your courage to make this video JD. I have been a stutterer since i can remember. I have been working on my speech since i was 15 till now, at 27. It has gotten better over the years and i can almost speak freely, but that's not always the case. I don't think it will ever go away because I still think the way i do. I am a stutter and I'm ok with that.
My biggest problem was not breathing. I held in my speech with my breathe, instead of letting my speech come out with my breathe. Always breathe. Practice to breath. Meditation has helped me a ton. Got me in tune with my mind, my breathe, my body, and i guess my soul. It's not an overnight thing but overtime it will pay off.
Keep it up.

hey I started Stuttering at 3 years old I'm now 52 an at times I still stutter just like you . it's can be Hell if you let take over your life
if you need to talk I would happy to talk about my experiences please let me know . Your very brave putting your self out there I only stutter now when I get nervous my Stuttering started getting less an less after I was 18 take care
Exploring and bottle collecting with Jimmy you stutter me too and I started stuttering since I was 5 and I'm 11 and it got worse
It takes so much courage to make a video like this and I can totally get you when you describe your stutter. You really feel to have a burden in your chest which you can't get rid of. I don't have a very serious kind of stutter but in the last two years it really affected my life. For instance, I can't introduce myself to someone because I totally get blocked when I have to pronounce my name.
The thing I always keep saying to myself is not to give in. We can't let this problem influence our lives. I know it's five years you uploaded this video, but I really hope you are doing well! Let's keep on fighting, we are all amazing
Same thing happens with me around strangers
Thank you for making this video. I don't have a stutter, but I have a lisp, and I hate the feeling of being afraid to talk. Speech impediments are the worst.
I feel ya
Natalia I know what that’s like in my elementary and beginning of middle school years I stayed quiet 2-6 I felt ashamed of speaking saying words wrong and in Pre-school I wouldn’t speak my family native language of Montenegrin or English but a weird mixture of both where it began.... now I’m like a social butterfly and have gotten much better but sadly I don’t speak to much Montenegrin but I understand it fluently!
another question to everyone: video ideas? not Q&A's leave that for another time :)
JD Daniel have your parents talk about what they think about your stuttering
JD Daniel what's the feeling having a speech disorder~stutter? is it cool?
JD Daniel just thought I'd say...I stutter too so I know how it feels ❤ we will all stay strong together
JD Daniel hey I stutter to I get bullied for it there's times where I just don't wanna talk because of it
BigManLund66 BigManLund66 I stutter too I didn't when I was younger but now i just suddenly got it and I notice it's getting worse and I mean it's got more noticible it use to be like 1 or 2 a day but now it's nearly every sentence I hate it as I have got to repeat sentences as people don't understand but I don't now what my friends are going to make of it as I haven't seen them this summer break and it's got worse alot worse but don't listen to the bullies that are just jelouse and never take what they say to heart just ignore it if they say anything just say okay rather than fight back
As someone who stutters, I really appreciate this video! Proud of you for making this and making people aware :)
I really appreciate hearing someone else put what I deal with into words so well. ive also noticed the techniques you use in your videos, and they've been really helping me improve my own stutter:)
Thank you and hope it helps out! :)
You are so brave and courageous! I stutter just like you, my words just get stuck and it takes a long time for the words to come out. I always try to hide the fact that I have stuttering. And I just realized that my stuttering is what makes me who I am. Hopefully in the future I could be as brave as u r right now! Seriously buddy ur a great role model for me and people who stutter! Thank you so much for being such an inspiration! 😊
I like to think that my stutter has made me a more compassionate person. It took me so long to learn not to loathe it. People will try to make its virtues out to be flaws - I hope you don't/won't let that get to you. :)
mit mop I stutter and im using this thing. Its when you pretend to sing, like when yu sing you stuttering goes away, so pretend to are singing or just song a bit on the words your stuck on. If you are stuck on a word try to sing it out. If that doesnt help then try to read stories out loud, ( poems help a lot ) and do that for a a couple of weeks and it will either reduce it, help it, or gets rid of your stuttering. I hope that helps you, ive been using the singing one and it kind of helps by I still stutter and I'm to lazy to use the reading one.
I am not a doctor of anything I'm just a kid that looks up stuff and reads things about it- wait, I should read it out loud! but yeah i hope it helps you in anyway!
You have courage dude!!! Good video!
And don't say sorry please... No need to!
Hi. I am from mongolia. I am 20 years old and I stutter like you do. Even worse in some situations. It probably started when I was 6 or 7. It got worse over years. I am a Christian. As a Christian for me it was hard to except this condition. I was tired of it. I was angry at God. But now I know that my stutter is not just a mistake or something random. God always has a plan. I don't know if you are a Christian or not but I truly hope, and I will pray for your salvation. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.(1 Corinthians 1:27)
I am Christian, and thank you so much. God be with you.
Yeruult Dashdendev Actually, mosses stammered.
Yeah fuck God
Yeruult Dashdendev I got it like when I was 9 and idk why but I first got I could wven say a sentence everyone made fun of me💔
@@jacobmccarthy1171 lol 😂
I know how you feel, I had to have surgery on my mouth when I was little and now I stutter a lot. you're truly inspiring!
Aww, the courage and inspiration in this video is truly incredible. Probably has become one of my favourite videos on youtube. For some reason began to stutter a fair bit more in recent years. I've met those who have for as long as they can remember and they're some of the most awesome folks I know.
i know how it feels completely. ive been stuttering for most of my life. im 16 and it sucks when i turn down calling people/ restaurants etc. im even afraid to talk to people because i dont want to see their reaction to my stuttering. it sucks.. but its comforting to know im not alone.
i completely understand how you feel.
I absolutely know how you feel bud, I also "have a speech impediment" since as long as I can remember. I'm in my late 30's and I have had a rough upbringing because of it. Don't EVER apologize, there are millions of people in this world that stutter and some are famous actors and voice overs. I salute you for your bravery to take the time out and try to explain what it feels like. To me, we are all born unique in our own way and should never apologize for the cards that we were dealt with in life. Keep your head up and find that confidence within you and you'll notice that you will start to substitute words for others but in the end you do get you point across. If no one can except you for what they presume a flaw in you, then they do not need to be in your life period. I have accomplished more things within my first 30 years on this earth than others have in their lifetime. Have also noticed that we are more of the kind hearted spirit than others, think about it. Keep up the great job bud and stay positive, YOLO, so surround yourself with positive people and you'll see that your not alone.
I have a stuttering problem and I just want us too talk. I have no friends that stutter and I just need someone to relate too
sure
+Jabraya MacDonald see u soon
me tooo
+hoi doei sure

So grateful that you're willing to put yourself out there by posting this video. Super helpful for speech-language pathologists and students wanting to learn more about the experience of stuttering.
idk if this sounds weird but i find stuttering kinda cute
I LOVE UR PFP AND SAME OMG
@@hermitxcrab omgggg do u watch dream team too :D
My chemical green day OFC
The "s" sound is a very common stutter trigger. I experienced it pretty much everyday when my stutter was really bad and it also just felt like I couldn't speak at all, like the words were unable to leave my mouth. Its really ironic that the word stutter begins with an "s" but I kind of feel like that word was made by non-stutterers, 99 percenters as I call them, who knew the "s" sound is a common trigger. The literal words "speech" and "speak" also starts when an "s". Sometimes I would bang my fist or tap my fingers on a surface a couple of times just to get a word out. Some people think a slow internet connection is frustrating or getting a lot of ads or emptying the recycle bin, imagine struggling to say a simple sentence like "How was your day" on a daily basis. People dont realize how lucky they are. Its truly inspiring to see people with stutters speak openly and without fear. This video made my day. Its nice to know that Im not alone in the struggle.
Wow, this is unbelivable. Never would I have thought to reach one hundred thousand views on a video. Thanks everyone tremendously for your support :) Be on the lookout for a new video soon (promise this time haha)
Great Video! Keep up the good work!
Were you on the Ellen show? The damn Daniel guy? And if so, how were you able to not stutter at all during the show?
Really appreciate you putting yourself out there like this. I suffer from the SAME problem, my stuttering issues being stress related. I find it really annoying to stutter in front of people while reading in class, talking to friends etc... because they always laugh about it when I'm just trying to get words out and they have NO idea about how hard it is to get over blocks and other things that are involved with stuttering. So, big props to you for having the courage to make this video and don't let the stuttering problems get in your head, were all different. :)
does anybody get this: I almost never stutter but when I try to tell a funny story or a joke or something really important I start stopping and my words get stuck in my mouth does anybody else have any tips
It sounds like you have a stutter.
Sc!ence | I do that to but I think it's because I don't think of the word I'm gonna say before saying them, i dont consider it a stutter though
well i started saying what im gonna say in my head before i say it that really works well
Sc!ence | lol, ya I just think slower than I talk, that would probably work better
haha yea same
I have a stutter as well, and I was curious as to if other stutterers felt the same way I do about our disability. Thank you for making this video, dude. People should know what it’s like to have a stutter.
Nice video man , I've stuttering over past 3 years and I've got use to it but in some situations like reading in front of the whole class out loud and speaking to people that i never met before just makes me stutter a lot and i feel very embarrassed , I even went to a speech therapist and she has told me some techniques to overcome with stuttering like singing your words and take deep breathes after a comma or a full stop and it has helped me a lot so I hope you can overcome stuttering :D
I have stuttering and it's annoying af. I also apologize when I stutter because I think that I'm wasting someone's time.
In reality, stuttering isint that bad if u don't think about it. and some people actually find it cute. I just found ur channel, and I subscribed in a flash!
Hey I stutter too so I'm honestly so proud of you for doing this even though I don't know you. I could never do this, keep it up!!!
You have nothing to apologize for. What you are doing is so important, courageous, and helpful for other people who stutter and student speech therapists who are interested in providing empathetic and effective treatment to people who stutter. You've taken something many see as a "problem" and turned it into a means of helping tens of thousands of people (maybe more.)
You don't need to apologise mate, we all understand! ; ) Good luck with your stutter, hopefully it will go in a few years! It makes you you so don't let it put you down! You are AWESOME 😃
Thanks man!
Its nice knowing that someone goes through the same shit i go thru, but has such a positive attitude about it....gives me hope for myself. Thank you
Idk if this is weird but he’s really cute
thank you for this video. my son stutters and it's hard to know what he's feeling or going through sometimes. so your videos have been incredibly helpful for me as his mom to better understand what he's going through
the weird thing is. I've never stuttered before. but a couple days ago I started and it was really bad and I've been doing it a lot
Badland Chemical Panic! Phan Piløts With Problems same :((( Im 14 and I just started to stutter
Did you guys still stutter now?
I had a stutter since I was 5. I still have one and I’m 11.
OoF-
As a person who stutters I get you my man. I would say it is something that you cannot control. It just happens. To me, it is like my brain stops. Luckily, mine isn't that bad anymore and being a biology major in school I understand why it happens. But basically it is like my mind and throat turn off and I can't speak. It is bizarre but I have friends and family who accept it and they have to accept me for who I am. Thanks for the video, it means a lot to people like me. But don't ever apologize for it, it is part of whom you are. Keep your head up, you can't help it like me and there are people like you out there.
You rock buddy.
Hi Daniel . My name is Liz... I'm 18 and I have a stuttering problem too . Watching your video made me really emotional in a good way ( I couldn't stop crying ) because I completely understand your pain. You are so brave for making a video , I couldn't have even done it for being really embarrassed . You are now my idol because I know you have inspired many as you have me .. so Thank You so much for that ! :)
Thank you so much! :)
I also have a minor stutter, thank you for making this video. I'm with ya, broseph
I relate to this video so much. Never apologise for having a stutter because it's not your fault. One way I deal with my stutter is owning it. If someone ever says anything to me i just say yeah and what once you do that no one can make fun of you because you own it and your not giving them the reaction they want. A few techniques I have learnt from my speech therapist is sliding. Sliding is when you prolong the first letter of your word or sentence. This doesn't work for everyone it all depends on who you are. Another technique is stopping taking 3 deep breaths and starting again. U r a really cool dude and u should never let anyone drag u down because they're only jealous of your level of confidence and maturness.
Hold on there brother. I am 20 and I stutter exactly like you. It is worse in front of camera so you are very brave to cam it. My advice is simple, just take a breath before speaking and do not rush yourself. Nothing worth the rush.
As a stutterer of 15 years I relate to this so much. I have to work so much harder than everyone else to show that I’m more than my stammer. You use that um as much as you want mate I use it aswell it’s just a habit, a bad one, but helps so much. I was in tears watching this as I know the struggle of fluency and stuttering. Keep being you ❤️
No need to apologise m8 you keep at it and don't give up
oh I was also stuttering , now I have always no problem anymore , so keep calm and motivated and don't listen to people who want to make you mad, take your time , greetings from Mexico , robert
How did you overcome ? Can you please reply ? I really need to stop it
I shutter too but mostly when I talk too fast
iamBlondale same
Blondale Same here.
I stutter too but only when I’m like nervous or just like talking hella fast especially in Spanish
i sometimes stutter and usually struggle starting a sentence because i have so many things on my mind. happens alot when i'm nervous or scared
welcome to ADHD :)
You are so very brave for making this video. I myself too have a stutter and honestly it's wonderful to be able to see something this natural and uncensored on the internet to make us all realize we aren't the only ones out there with this issue.
I have always had my stutter since I was very young and it has improved greatly, but it is still there. Especially when making phone calls, or saying my first and last name. It's a definite. I currently don't have a video camera but once I get one, I would love to shoot a video reply your way. I've never thought about making videos about my stutter to be able to push through it, but you seriously may be onto something here.
Most importantly... DON'T APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR STUTTER OR YOUR ACTIONS BECAUSE OF IT.
stuttering can be okay/ good because it a part of my life but sometimes it can be annoying if am doing a presentation, going for interviews or even expressing myself my stutter get so much worst!
the technique I use to stop stuttering less is to speak with a different accent.. like I try to use a sort of like a British/ English accent it help me .. of instead of using my real accent because of my stuttering
stuttering is like bipolar!!!
CindyN Cole I wish I had an accent living with a home full of accents but living in America screwed me over.....
I'm British and guess what letter I always get stuck on? T 😂😭🤧
I personally find people who stutter ADORABLLLEEEE!! So your stuttering it so cute to me! 💚
But i hate when people make fun of people that stutter bc my dad stutters and even if he didnt stutter i would still stick up for them
I think it's super brave of you to make a video like this. Thanks so much. I'm a person who stutters also and it helps so much seeing other people struggling with it, too. Hope to see more of your stuff.
IK this question sounds stupid but, are their different types of stuttering?
yes
Brianna Soto yes there are. You have "open stuttering" and "hidden stuttering" this type what you see above is open stuttering. You just can't get out of your words what are you trying to say.
Hidden stutterers ( what i am ) are finding an other way to say something else with the exact same meaning but other words. Sometimes they skip words because they know they are gonna stutter at some words.
I have my stutter in control by alot of practising en hard work. But even now i have ups and downs. I am a Fitness and Volleyball trainer and i enjoy life every second now. And i got alot of respect for this guy posting things like this on youtube.
I feel you bro 👊🏻
Brianna Soto I stutter, I'm 14, but it's not as bad as this guys one, I don't talk a lot, but when I do I change my words and sometimes I can't say them they just don't come out of my mouth and it sounds very weird.
Yeah I have the type of stuttering called "hidden stuttering" but sometimes if I'm under pressure while talking I forget to change my wording and get stuck on words. I got teased but then I started sticking up for myself and one if the boys that teased me is a good friend now!
There are many different types of stutter. Most stutterers get stuck on consonants, but the troublesome consonants can vary ("L" is very difficult for me, but it might be "M" for someone else). Other stutterers get stuck on vowels. Some might block in the middle of words; some only get stuck on the initial letters. One common trait I've noticed among stutterers is "letting go" of the "S" sound. Stuttering is basically unique to the stutterer. No two are exactly alike. 🙂
Don’t ever be sorry!! You got a message!! And you are brave! The problem problem is with the one who listen, and not you!! People just don’t understand us! Well their problem! A fellow stutterer. You can be anything you want!!
You are an inspiration!!
wow ..i have a few friends who stutter as well and it is difficult for them everyday
but i've never seen it at this level...you got mad courage and i pray things will get better for you!! keep your head up you'll get through this
Who would dislike this???
WOWWW I never knew it had to do with airways this is the first video I’ve found that isn’t like “idk....it’s not fun” it’s a great explanation of EXACTLY what it feels like
nice videos! I stutter too. are you in the stuttering community on Facebook?
I don't use facebook, I'm sorry
What is the name of the page! I would love to follow it!
+Casey McGaugh stuttering community, its a group
From another stutterer, you're so brave for doing this video. The best advice I was given was to overcome and control the stutter and not let it overcome and control me. Best of luck!
I stutter to and we all hate it but we just got to work it out. To make me not stutter I take a big breath first and stretch and my words
Stretching my words gets me stuck on a certain letter and I tend to stutter more
my letters that I suck on is S
I stutter and talk exactly like you.... I was so suprised to find someone who talks exactly and I mean exactly like me... This is so damn personal for me and I feel so damn connected to this.... To all those who stutter... You are not alone! We are a family... We watch out for each other....
There are days where I only stutter and on these days I get a little bit strange bc I try to hard not to stutter. ( sorry for my english)
Hi ! I stutter also, almost same as you are. I so admire you for having courage to speak about it and make videos and speak in general. All my life I've been running from public speaking, from communicating to a bigger crowd of people, and you gave me now courage to start doing it, no matter what. If you ever want to talk to someone, you can contact me. God bless you !
I need some friends who stutter too, because my friends don't understand stuttering and I just need someone that does. Oh and im 17 and I like sarcasm harry potter and once upon a time. Im known as the clown at school ;)
Hi, Im from Poland ;3 im a boy, i stutter too sometimes, ive got facebook, my name is Piotrek Patalon, that will be a young boy with emo hair ;D Im waiting
SAMEEEEEE HEREE. I'm also 17 and I stutter and known as the clown at school. well the class clown. wow
I also really like to have friends who understand what's like to be a stutter
My name is Majd, 21 a Tunisian boy living in Ukraine
I understand, I stutter too. I hate giving presentations because every person in the room is watching stutter. It takes forever to say what your saying. It's really embarrassing sometimes. Thank you for making this video, I really appreciate it 😀😄☺️
Mine is off and on at the moment but today i couldnt even get the words out :/ when i was talking to someone
That's how it's been for me lately :/
I'm sorry. I stutter too and it really sucks when someone asks me my name and then when I say my name, I stutter and afterwards I feel terrible for stuttering. I've been stuttering ever since I was 8 and I hate it so much. I don't want speech therapy because then I'll have to talk and i hate talking sometimes because of my stutter
+Jessica Naramor me to i can't say my name if someone asking me my name
+Jessica Naramor me to i can't say my name if someone asking me my name
Emil Ström Aww i'm sorry, hang in there (:
Hey JD, I just wanted to let you know that I also stutter. I understand you are going through! Stuttering isn't fun, but it also opens many doors for you to let the world know about stuttering. Keep making videos and making the world know about stuttering more and more. You are amazing!
bro i stutter to & my friends laugh and also girls be tryna talk to me and i cant talk back because my stutter problem & it frustrates me
Davion Swearegene i can 100% relate to that
Hang in there dude. I've had a stutter since childhood (28 now) but still suffer when under stress/nerves/anxiety. Kids at school make it suck so much more but screw them. YOU CAN DO IT
is he the "damn daniel" guy? 😊❤❤
Yes, that is me
I relate so much,its painful.I understand everything you are doing and saying.I seriously appreciate you so much!I look up to you because i am not that comfortable with my own stutter.
You shouldn't say um so much, coming from a stutterer, you should just force that shit out. Good shit man mad respeck.
force of habit haha
anToin_fanToin I am like that especially when I’m nervous I just can’t let it out and when I try not to take so long
I am 21 years old, and I have been stuttering since my first memory. Not all people who stutter are confident and strong, including me. I can't stand the fact that I need to do presentations in front of people in university, but I'd love to. It is like an inner conflict and fighting, it brings me headaches. I don't really stutter as much as you. Sometimes I take a deep breath and start talking very slow that the beginning of each word comes out slowly. Hell I can't say my name if someone asks me. xD
I hope one day there will be a cure for this, because a lot of people who stutter get no proper support (including me) and we really don't deserve it.
We the same Bro 😭
Same here :(
Hey! As an aspiring SLP I would love to hear about your experiences with a speech therapist. Also, what's the update with JD today? How are you doing? How is your stutter? In graduate school class, we are using your video to help us understand stuttering better. Thanks for sharing!
sup bro. have somebody ever picked on you or teased you before because you stutterd.
not recently, but yes
Thank you so much for posting this! It feels great to know that I'm not alone with my struggle! Believe in yourself and anything is possible! :D
Musical representation of what it is like to stutter:
youtubedoubler.com/i1lX
I can totally relate, I've have stuttering all my life, it has cause me a lot of anxiety but also it lets me talk to other people about it. No need to apologize.
I really liked this video, I developed a stutter when I was about 9, and I don't think people exactly understand how they work, so I think it's important to educate people :) keep up the good content!!!
omg, I talk like you, I tend to stutter time to time and I get sad because sometimes I talk, and people don't understand what I say and they just mock me, sometimes they just mean it as a joke, but it's still makes me self-concius. But I'm really proud of you and you're really admirable! I wish you the best of the best!
I feel you bro, it's like a struggle to get words right. But hey, your courage has shine other's hearts
You are so inspiring. I know this is difficult and takes a lot of courage. You are to be admired. Please don't stop what you are doing. You are speaking for a lot of people that wish they could do the same. God bless you.
i like seing people who have this problem talk about it it takes more than just filming yourself but also a lot of courage and determination
