Prepare your presentation and just practice. Spend a weekend, a week a month just practice it. We have to work 10000% harder than everyone else....

Uff.. Great, I'm happy for you.. Do you remember how it was at your start? Does it get better if you get chances to do it again and again?...

This happens to me. I literally have to show people my ID sometimes and they look at me like I’m crazy. This is the next level of frustration. It comes and goes and I go through stages and waves of i...

"Overcoming " is such an ambiguous word. For some, it means "improvement." For others, it means 100% fluency. I'm 54, and my stutter started at the age of 5 as a result of a dog attack. I've had 2...

I feel you man as someone also with a severe stutter and diagnosed ADHD and depression. I haven’t encountered too many of the ‘I stutter too’ crowd but plenty of people who ‘used to stutter when young...

I stutter all the time, but it’s definitely more moderate compared to other severe stutterers. Sometimes I do feel like I need to explain that it affects me and my mental health. When I try to explain...

It happens to me too. I started stuttering over four years ago at age 63 … yes, really. Neurologist said I might have had a small stroke. However, my stutter has almost completely disappeared … **almo...

Yep, I do. I haven’t used it in a bit, but when I do use it, I do. There are times when I get lucky & don’t. But most of the time I do. I hate it...

As an adult, how would you say life is with a stutter? ...

I mean I wouldn’t immediately invalidate people who say they stutter. I stutter but I would consider mine very mild whereas my husband’s is debilitating. If he told me… you don’t really stutter becaus...

It's not common considering how many people I talk to, but I've gotten it a few times. Few times I've heard the "oh I have a stutter too! But I only stutter when I'm angry." Like no shit, everyone doe...

My mother has a stutter and lisp. I have a stutter. I don’t blame her for it. Also, I think it’s made me stronger. Even if your kids don’t inherit your stutter, they will still suffer but for differen...

Practice reading aloud, and listening back. Not pushing thru blocks. Streaming on twitch and just talking non stop for hours, usually just to myself but not always. I still struggle with some words an...

technically only .5-1% of adults stutter. most people outgrow it in their early teens or late childhood...

I've never encountered another stutterer in person, or at work. I did know one guy who had an issue similar to mine, but maybe 20% as severe....

Stuttering is largely self diagnosed / self reported. I don’t know how they got their data to conclude that it’s 1% of the adult population so you may be right. I also think most people who have a stu...
