Forty years for me. I don't let it define who I am, like I did when I was younger. I faced my fears of talking - Toastmasters really helped but it took 1-2 years of doing speeches to get comfortable ...

I don't know is it best advice, but making fun of yourself is working fine for me. I already don't care about my stutter btw. If someone tell me "if i am having a stroke" i would answer it like "yes ...

Should i just try to be extroverted and talk to as much people as i can and just tell myself “whatever happens… happens”. I fr feel so extroverted having a lot of thoughts/conversations in my head but...

This is good! It’s a roller coaster, but getting to the point where you can say “fuck them” and move on, the highs last longer than the lows on that roller coaster, and people see you for you, not you...

That guy must be reported. Totally unacceptable. That said, life will get immeasurably better when you come to peace with being a person that stutters. My 16 year old son refused to accept it for yea...

I had the same beliefs you did and thought it was never going away, and I ran into OPs posts a week ago and bought the book and I've already seen improvement. Literally last night I said the word "mob...

I’m 50, from Toronto and a electrician. I felt the same way about my stuttering years ago. I was depressed as a teenager and early 20’s, over weight and anti-social. I woke up one day and said to myse...

Remember stuttering at age 5. Speech therapy my through my life. Nothing worked. Lived at the fork: choose being true to myself or avoiding shame. At age 23 - I was ready to go all in and face whateve...

1. Fuck him - next time tell any thoughtless human - “this is how I how my courage muscle” before speaking. Be a mirror for other people. 2. Use the mantra “now is not forever - and I feel free” 3. T...

It is what it is, don’t get stuck on living in the past. Just make sure it doesn’t happen again in the future!...

The biggest takeaway I got from your post is when you said “no one understands my pain, not even my family”. This hits so close to home, no one in the world understands what we go through. Even ord...

I love a good acceptance post here. I am not religious but I don't think this message *requires* faith in God to work. I don't think this post is even pushing god. It's about faith in yourself that yo...

Hello, are you going through anything else? Maybe going back to school, or something that triggers anxiety? I have the same problem, and I am certain that anxiety is subconcsiously triggered with some...

I thought this was an easy answer for me but turns out: It's not. I'd like to drop my thoughts here and would love to hear about your opinion on it as well! :) Yes, I think you can overcome stutterin...

This is the answer of answers ^^ as someone who just left college with a block stutter, people rarely mention it or care. Usually very understanding. Join as many clubs as you can and get out of your ...

These are years that you’ll always look back on but will never be able to live again. Don’t make the mistake I did and let it hinder you. Be yourself; you’ll make friends, and a-holes will weed out t...

I was in your position this time last year. Currently going into second year of university and I have a moderate stutter. The start of college last year was terrifying, but the year was honestly one o...
