No problem, I've been stuttering over 30 years, it's never gone away but it has gotten better. I'm not sure if it's the stutter that's better or my ways around it are better though!...

Keep your head up. Go on NoFap., it might affect your stutter....

It will be less awkward the next time, and the time after that. You have to accept your going to stutter in front of people. The more you do it, the less fear and shame you will have, and the less you...

Most of my friends are like "hey, I saw you on tv!" so they just were excited. And it isn't even that awful because they aired small pieces of a bunch of interviews back to back so it's no more than 5...

Same. Most school days I'd go the whole day without talking, unless it was asking the teacher questions after class. Talking is literally the bane of my existence; there are no lengths I wouldn't go ...

Best part is that it is universal. Everyone understands what that hand motion means, which is incredible if you think about it. For me, it’s perfect as I don’t have to interact any further to ask for ...

When you stutter, online ordering is the best! I know I shouldn't avoid, and I give you MAJOR props for doing that. I order food over the phone maybe once a year, if that. I totally understand how ...

So he didn't try and proactively fight it? I can't just wait and expect to grow out of mine.. that's really lazy for me. Everyday I try to talk to a stranger , read and just overall Improve improve i...

Got stuttering almost to a science.

Got stuttering almost to a science. I was born with a speech impediment, as a result my first time speaking and oral commnuication were slightly delayed. Now I am pretty regular however I have my stu...

Certain Letters creating a block.

Certain Letters creating a block. I've found that I only have a stammer when saying words that begin with L's and R's. (you know, like License and Registration) I'm starting law school next year and...

Practice. What I always do is pause first. I go up to a person and just don't say shit. Then after 2-3 awkward seconds. Boom. I'm good. It's like I need awkwardness first lol...

Yup, eye contact with the server, and little squiggly motion with my hand is how I signal for the check. Makes me look like a pro because the entire interaction is wordless... Little do they know, heh...

Well ... I was discussing my stuttering with someone long ago and they asked me if I stutter when I write. At the time I thought what a bizarre and stupid question. Fast forward about 40 years and th...

Isn't this what the open palm with one hand and the check motion with the other was invented for? :p Really, tho.......

I was able to order food through the phone and I am happy!

I was able to order food through the phone and I am happy! I was able to order my lunch through my work phone today. I had always avoided the phone either by ordering through e-mail or asking someone ...

Virtual Reality as possible treatment?

Virtual Reality as possible treatment? Hi! I've been reading over this subreddit for a while but never posted. My type of stuttering is based on social situations. I stutter on words that have a buil...
