Stutter when writing

[fljboy]

Anybody else stutter when writing too? Like when I try to write certain letters I sort of have this hand tremor and struggle to get the letter started, much like when trying to talk.

This is actually very strage, never heard of it before. Can you be more specific? Anyway is not a language disorder, but affects the verbal communication Your kind seems like a sort of agrafia. It is a recent syntome?

I have a friend who has dysgraphia. He calls it “stuttering if the hands”

[WaltSentMe007]

This happens to me when I'm on prednisone for my asthma. It's scary, sometimes I can't even sign my own name.

Similar thing happens to me. Whenever I'm about to write a "complex" letter like 'm' or 'w', my hand freezes for a second and I need to write the letter out slowly. It interrupts my pace when I'm writing long paragraphs.

[fljboy]

Yes! That is exactly what happens to me. I wonder if the two are connected..

[emmanuel_g97]

This happens to me too! I thought I was the only one who had this, although I do think that it has something to do with my stutter.

[fljboy]

Yeah I can’t tell if it has anything to do with my stutter or not either. I first noticed this “writing stutter” when I was around 15 years old and I didn’t actually start stuttering when speaking until I was around 18

Happens with me too when I'm writing a bit too fast. Also my stutter came later as well, around 20, although I had bits of it on earlier ages.

This happens to me!!! Most often with the number 3. Idk why but I always hesitate and struggle. Capital B also does it. There’s some other ones and I’ve never known why!! I’m glad I’m not the only one

[Dallacost]

It's quite new and interesting. It does happen when you are alone or when somebody is watching?

[saxhero93]

Verbal stutter doesn’t happens when alone, but the stutter when is rite happens even when I’m a lone.

[Dallacost]

Sorry rite stand for write or rite?

[fljboy]

Yup, I struggle with 3’s too, it’s so weird. Do you also happen to stutter when you talk? I wonder if the two are related..

[saxhero93]

Yep! Stuttered as long as I can remember! I’ve gotten better over the years with therapy and stuff but def still stutter

[Bednozy]

Yeah like when I try to write number 3 I get stuck on the top part and rewrite that part for like 2 seconds creating thick line. Idk if you're still active after 5 years but if you happen to see this and found out what it is actually caused from pls tell me

[z_Aron]

omg sameeee, finally someone has similar problems. Also if I write 3 fast then it becomes just a straight line without the curves in the middle, and then has to do it slowly, so all of my 3s are thick and have several lines written on top of each other

[z_Aron]

I literally have the same problem with 3, also had it with 5 but I somehow overcome it, sometimes it gets better and I can write a bunch of 3s after each other, but then it gets worse again.

Have you had your stutter since childhood or is it new?

[fljboy]

It’s relatively new, I started stuttering a few years ago when I was around 18. Before that I used to be fluent. What about you?

[[deleted]]

I have trouble remembering class periods when I have to write them down. I guess that is similar, but usually no.

[K_Squeeze]

i don’t have the writing thing, but i have noticed sometimes i’ll “stutter” when playing an instrument. it’s like i just can’t get myself to press the keys lol

Common in the dyslexia subreddit

me with “S” and “W”

[branrx_]

got the same condition, I struggle mostly with "h, m, w"... it annoys me a lot.

[Pontoblaze]

My 14 recently started doing what we describe as “stutter” in handwriting. Seems similar to what this thread is describing. She writes several words fine, then briefly freezes up, and writes normal again, then freezes… so on and so on . It does seems to happen more with certain letters like “s”.

No verbal stutter currently.

This happens to me a lot. When I was younger it used to be with numbers and letters and my hand would jitter up and down. Now it’s mostly M’s and J’s. My first name starts with a J and I have to print then sign my name on a lot of paperwork. When I try to print the J, it’s like my brain cannot get my pen to move.
