I only stutter on the beginning of sentences (knock on wood) and I go through what seems like peaks and troughs. For a couple weeks, I don't have much trouble. Then, for the next 1-2 months after that...

I said the same thing some time ago. I just couldn't wrap my head around the idea of not caring what other people thought of my stutter. My stutter is also very severe, so people do not only notice th...

I've been trying very hard to stay positive for the last month or so. I can tell you that it's very hard! I saw that you mentioned that it is the peoples reaction that bothers you, which bothers me a ...

I work as a waiter, its both scary & great

I work as a waiter, its both scary & great I work part time on the weekends as server. I worked at the restaurant since my college years during the summer. For years I worked as a host. My stutter...

I'm like that as well. I try to say things extra clearly first time round but that also brings on some stammering sometimes....

For me it makes it worse because people might not hear what im saying, so they ask me to say it again. I almost never say the same thing twice again, i usually just laugh and say "ah it was nothing"...

My life turned around once I decided to major in communication sciences and disorders in college (aka speech therapy). This put me in a field of people who are sensitive and empathetic to those with d...

ARGH, definitely. Most of the time I'm able to just say "eh, no one really cares" and work my way through the block, but comedic timing is one of those things that stuttering completely messes up. I d...

I find that if I do a silly voice I rarely ever stutter but obviously you can't talk like Elmo or shaggy and scooby all the time irl....

Day-to-day stuttering annoyances

Day-to-day stuttering annoyances When non-stutterers imagine what stuttering must be like, they tend to "think big" - difficulties giving presentations, speeches, etc. But for me, the most frustratin...

Yeah, it definitely works, but only up to a point where your stutter catches up to your new way of speaking. Its kind of like using a DAF device to create a choir effect of your own while speaking- it...

So I work with somebody else that stutters... And I hate it, which makes me feel like a super asshole. I have a mild stutter, most people don't even realize I stutter unless I talk to them for awhile...

I never want to talk to anyone

I never want to talk to anyone I don’t really know where to begin this so I will just start from childhood. I have been stuttering since I was about ten years old. Growing up, this gave me huge proble...

I think it is because you get out of the habit of speaking smoothly. This happens to me a lot too...

I have the exact same experience. In normal conversation, I'm usually pretty fine, but my stutter pops up whenever I plan out what I want to say (which includes saying my own name, because there's no ...

Its simple. Don't think about it. I know its easier said than done (i have this same issue) but you have to think about what youre going to say, but you can't obsess over it. Think about what you're g...

Wish I had some sort of answer to what's happening. Dealing with the same thing. Sometimes It happens in daily conversation aswell though so not quite the same, but definitely more when I think too lo...

Stutter worst when I've been planning what I want to say

Stutter worst when I've been planning what I want to say I'm not sure what I've got right now could be called a bad stutter, but it's quite a big part of my day to day life. It seems to only come arou...

Yes. I force myself to read stuff aloud every day just to keep myself from getting rusty. Even if I'm just reading to my cat. It only takes one day of not talking for me to fall behind....

By unnecessary I mean to control my speech, so that i don't stutter as much like first time reading it. My vocabulary is not that great, and english is not my first language. Thats probably why my ear...
