Does anyone know any other people who stutter? When I worked in a supermarket one of my colleagues had a stutter too. We got on well but neither of us acknowledged that we both have a stutter! We didn't talk about how it affects us, or that we both have one..maybe because they were quite different manifestations of the stutter. I got a lot of blocks and repetitions. i don't think i had any facial ticks, but he used to close his eyes throw his head back, and take a big intake of breath before speaking.
