Hey David, thanks for the comment! Sorry for the misunderstanding, I haven't found a cure to stuttering. I still mildly stutter. I describe myself as a PWS. I will edit my post to fix that. I used ...

Just stutter. Be yourself. Some girls find it cute believe it or not lol....

**TL;DR summary**: *(of the post)* I tried every stutter technique, but it didn't work. Constant loneliness, bullying , exclusion, even by my own family. unimaginable injustices. I survived using my ...

When you realize people never have us to go through DAILY shame and dysfunction you realize there little laughs and smirks and opinions and suggestions mean NOTHING!!! Being fully yourself and allowin...

Acceptance is very hard for those especially who‘ve never had to deal with a disability at all. But one lesson I’ve learned a hundred fold after many many years of having a speech disorder is this. Pe...

Acceptance is not all, but part of the healing process. We tend to see stuttering as a weight to our lives that only brings negative connotations to us. However, there are certain traits that are valu...

I agree with your definition of acceptance. And it’s so variable it drives me insane! I’m sure we can all attest to that say we were smooth as can be and were invited to an event or to hang out with a...

Yeah. I wouldn't be friends with someone if they were just tolerating me either. I do not understand enough. Thank you for the perspective....

I can see that based on these responses that a stutter is pretty damn tiring. I do not have a stutter, but I know your anger isn not misdirected. And your question; Yes, I have. Or atleast, I tried...

Thank you for taking the time to write this, It has been very helpful. And I completely understand that I could actually just be an ass. I might need to reevaluate my friendship with this person an...

Honestly, it's cool... you don't have to talk to them. But you can't have your cake and eat it too. Their stutter is part of them. You either remain friends and learn to accept them or stop being frie...

Wow! I love this, that's exactly how it went for me. The acceptance part was the best, it's like I finally started to realize my true potential, while before I was limiting myself, now I can fully e...

I find acceptance particularly difficult because of how variable the condition is. Some days I speak well and I feel like I can do anything. Other days I have long blocks and struggle no end. It is ha...

Being called "cute" in any sense is not a bad thing, and it doesn't make you any less of a man. Grow up....

Yes, acceptance will not change the opinions of others but it will change our opinion of ourselves. Of course the mocking will hurt, but the best we can do is speak up for ourselves and say we have a ...

My wife said my stutter was cute. We have four kids, the 3rd stutters. He's graduating next week from the #1 high school in the country. I founded and sold a tech company. We celebrate 26 years tog...

So I didn't say "acceptance is the only thing that can treat stuttering" then your argument is right. We have to do many things to even get stuttering in control. The topic is acceptance is the option...

Acceptance is just one piece. You need to work on reducing unproductive behaviors. You need to replace bad habits with good ones. But if you really accept your speech, regardless of how much or often ...
