No and I will most likely never find love. Approaching is hard and I am afraid of rejection. My stutter is severe and not cute and tbh I’m not attractive at all....

Stuttering has completely destroyed my confidence as well. What's worst is that when I have to stand up for myself I always stutter and end up looking ridiculous. This is stupid. Anyone who stutters ...

I think this is a disability with so many layers. Some have a more difficult forms of stuttering, some have less support from family or friends, some are more bullied/dismissed, some develop lifelong ...

Well here’s something we can agree on ugly men who stutter are treated as second class same can be said about ugly women who stutter. Only those that are attractive and stuttering can be accepted into...

That last part is so ridiculous. Where I am, I’m average looking by Latina standards, but that doesn’t stop guys in my uni that I’m interested in from walking away when they notice my stutter. Doesn’t...

It’s an endless battle. It doesn’t “bother me” to the extent that I don’t see anything wrong with stuttering around friends and family. However, in my day to day, I still struggle at times. Most recen...

I feel you brother, it hurts me bad too to speak my mind with family or strangers, even though that your family might be supportful, but still... it feels wrong. I hope we all get rid of it....

I wouldn't say I've overcome it, but pretty much as soon as I left highschool and wasn't picking on for it constantly, it started to improve to where I have days with minimal repetition and blocks. Th...

They don’t understand. The stutter is a curse. But it’s a teacher. We see the world how it really is. Shallow and superficial. The empathy just gets deeper friend. Take care of your heart...

I’ve never thought about that people would be jealous of your good looks and put you down for your stutter. That’s wild. I’ve been overweight and had a stutter so I just thought it’s the perfect combo...

Just a minor tip, but what helps me after an embarrasing social moment is saying to myself "it doesnt matter, Im never seeing this person again". That just alleviates a lot of the pain, remembering i...
