I think this is a really shitty outlook and a really shitty thing to post on this subreddit. You are clearly not happy with your stutter and are projecting all of your negativity about it onto others...

I think your mental handicaps go beyond your stutter. Are you seeing a therapist?...

I don't have the strongest self-confidence and I kind of get why you'd feel that way, but this view is, frankly, pure bullshit. If you're gonna hate yourself, at least realize what you're doing and do...

I think it's more of a selective confirmation loop. I stuttered a lot in high school and when I see friends I haven't seen in years, they don't even remember I stuttered until we met up again. Then th...

I've been told it's really common for people who stutter. It's definitely hit or miss for me. My SLP told me it's probably a combination of the pressure you put on yourself to respond effortlessly, ...

For some reason my mind makes me think that it takes too long to say "My name is ___" and people won't listen. I subconsciously have a stigma that people are impatient when really it isn't true but no...

I stutter and smoke regularly, and I've found that low amounts of cannabis actually do help increase my fluency. There's a little bit of science behind it, but none that has looked directly at the cor...

The CBD sounds interesting. Weed, in general, makes my stutter worse for many reasons. It makes me hyper aware and thus hyper anxious. I would like to try the isolated chemical though...

Personal anecdote from a frequent pot smoker: weed makes me more anxious and stutter even worse ...

I'm 27. I was getting pretty good with the ladies and was using flirting to improve my fluency, because it was a huge drive an motivation. But obviously it made me deviate from my studies. I even taug...

Meeting people makes me nervous too, but I figure it's better to message, regardless of the result than not. The worst thing that can happen us it doesn't go anywhere or they don't reply, but that's a...

Oh my God, I hate phone interviews so much! People ask me, "Are you nervous?" I tell them no, but then they're like, "Well, why are you stuttering?" or "Why can't you talk?" There's no way you can tel...

It's great that you don't let your stuttering bother you, and I can understand having a more difficult time relating to some posts here. But if your stuttering never bothered you before then I wouldn'...

Well..she spoke her mind. I give her that, usually people keep it to themselves giving an impression that they do not actually feel. I'd rather people be more upfront. Stuttering is just another var...

How did the conversation actually go? Be proud of yourself that you even approached. That in itself is painfully hard, even for many non-stutterers. As for people judging you for your stutter, unfort...

I mean she didn't judge me for stuttering. She judged me for lack of confidence... She thought I was nervous and therefore stuttered... ...

I don't stutter because I'm nervous! Fuck!

I don't stutter because I'm nervous! Fuck! I had girl reject me because "I don't have confidence". Apparently she thought I was stuttering because I was nervous and that meant lack or confidence. No, ...

For me, my stuttering is mostly about confidence. Adderall gives me confidence, and usually that helps. Message me if you want to chat more about it....

Hello shovelsocks, I’m employed, and majored in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Also, I’m a stutterer. I think we all feel like complete garbage from time to time. We aren’t. We are s...

I thought I was going insane, but this is exactly what happened to me too. At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, my confidence in my speech was rocket high, so high that I began work...
