Fluency disorders are communication challenges that affect the flow of speech. The most common type is stuttering, where a person may repeat sounds, syllables, or words, or experience pauses that disrupt their speech. This can make it difficult for individuals to express themselves clearly and confidently, often leading to frustration and anxiety.
Another type of fluency disorder is cluttering, which involves speaking too quickly or in a disorganized manner. People with cluttering may have trouble organizing their thoughts, making it hard for listeners to understand them. Both disorders can impact social interactions and academic performance, but with proper support and therapy, individuals can improve their fluency skills.
