I had that same conference in high school. Big table...all your teachers there looking at you differently now that they know you have a "problem"..like I'm not just Ashlee, I'm the disabled Ashlee.....hated it...felt like it was a pitty party for myself. I didn't particularly care for me speech therapist in HS either..she always pulled me out of class at the worst times..hellooo we have tests to prepare for, notes to take. Spanish sucksssss...I have to take 4 years of it for my degree :(

lol are you talking about the passive airflow technique? it is the technique that works but with it you have 1000 ways to stutter and only 1 to speak fluently and for that you need to put all the pieces together. It is hard technique to master (yes you need to master it, not to learn it) and it takes time but people who master it become better speakers than most non-stutterers. I guess your teacher wasn't the master of his craft with it since he stuttered.

Since I have been exploring and seeing different people, especially young people like yourself sharing their experiences on you tube, I'm thinking I want to do something about it. Videos starting up soon with some answers for you and others that share the same struggle. PWS don't need a speech therapist to teach them how to speak. You know perfectly well how to speak. You have a great nice voice and your fluency is awesome, except when you interfere with it.

Hey Majetn, Speech therapy sucked because....speech therapists pretty much suck. They don't have the first clue what to do. I am an old fart (55) and have just found out what this stupid disorder is about. The cause....and therefore the road to recovery. If you watch yourself..you only stutter when you try not to stutter. Therapy is pretty much always about taking more conscious control over the process. (Dumb idea) There lies the problem in the first place!

Furthermore, in closing, you, like the vast majority of us....PWS are smarter than the average person. All those asses that have annoyed you or made fun of you, or taken away an opportunity. Yeah....you get the picture, they don't deserve to feel superior to you, or us. They behave the way they because of their stupidity. George Carlin once said, "Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of them are stupider than that" LoL!

I was in speech therapy since the age of 10, and it did help me alittle like saying words slowly and "sliding" them in so if it was colour it would say ccccccolure trying to like ease the c out. Also learned to take a beath like what you said and it helped me. I still stutter and I do keep at it when I do stutter, I try to keep eye contact but can't always. But I would say it helps you to tune down the stutter. xD

yeah, I had speech therapy when I was really little and in 5th grade. I DREADED going in 5th grade, I would do anything to get out of it. when I was younger I would b me put in remedial reading classes cuz the teachers didn't think I could read. I just was soo shy and wouldn't read out loud. I could read Soooo much better than those kids.

I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with speech therapy. I took speech therapy as a kid (about 4 or 5 years old) because my stutter was very severe. It's pretty mild now, but I had a very good speech therapist. I'm studying now to become a speech therapist & specialize with people who stutter :)

I'm sorry you had to deal with that. You sound wonderful. I'm in school to be an SLP right now and I'm glad to see your side of the story. I think it's hard for us to transition from young kids to order teens and adults. I will keep your story in mind whenever I greet older students

Marissa Thompson commented on 01 Oct 2012

Thanks. That's kind of what I figure, that schools just gonna suck a little bit for now, but afterwards it'll get better, mostly because I won't be forced to give presentations and get graded on how well I can talk. And I don't plan to get a job in public speaking. :-D

I stuttered when I was in high school it has gotten better over the years. But it does happen when I'm stressed. Hang in there high school will be done soon. It will help you in life but your talking fine now. I was so nervous to stutter in front of people.

Melissa Petersen commented on 07 Mar 2012

Way to keep it real. Your story about the meeting at school made me laugh, because I work in a school and I can totally see that happening. And it helps me to work on not repeating the same mistakes they made!

Deanna Ostrander commented on 31 Aug 2012

I think speech therapists dealing with stutterers should be required to actually have a stutter themselves. How else will they be able to help someone if they don't have to deal with it?
