I feel this. They can go through a whole presentation and life with perfect fluency, but they still feel bad about their speech! I love speaking and volunteering, and I never let my stutter stop me. B...

We're friends, so whenever they make fun of my stutter I know it's not in a mean way. The thing that annoys me the most is when people who can talk won't talk. They are too nervous to read out loud an...

Oh yeah I was doing a group presentation and one of my friends was stuttering during the presentation. Of course he said "I'm catching your stutter"....

You know when people stutter during presentations and other similar things solely? It’s that. Circumstantial stuttering basically. Just during presentations or other anxiety ridden tasks. To clarify...

Its been super awkward for me when I have run into another stutterer. It’s only happened a handful of times in my life, but every time it’s this weird moment when they first speak, and I realize they’...

Festivals.

Festivals. Anyone else go to music festivals and meet people that automatically think you’re fucked up because you have a slight stutter when introducing yourself? Kinda frustrating but we have a laug...

Speak like you were explaining something to the other person, gesticulate a lot (be very assertive). Use your hands, it may sound absurd but what you have to do to stutter less is focusing less on stu...

When I took spanish in highschool I would stutter less at first, then it eventually went back to my normal amount. Kind of how when I talk in a fake accent I can actually be really fluent for a little...

No, probably because of my stammer I would rarely approach a woman outright. I had much better success in meeting women through groups, school, or other activities. Meeting girls at a bar through a ...

Online dating has definatly saved my ass. Sure, it's superficial and all that crap, but it beats trying to approach a woman in a bar or a nightclub. How big is your stutter? I'm somewhat of a function...

Stuttering is as much an avoidance disorder as it is a speech disorder. You should get in touch with the American Institute of Stuttering in NYC - they know what's up and can put you on the right trac...

Going in with the mindset of not stuttering will only add more pressure and if that doesn't make you stutter more, it will leave you feeling worse about yourself if you do. The best advice I can off...

I'm glad you're going to work on it. My suggestion is work on it only a couple times per day. You're can't stop it cold turkey and trying to do so is usually a recipe for failure. Work on it a few tim...
