That's kind of interesting. My kindergarten teacher did the same thing to me. I have always wondered if that was one of my root causes. I've never heard anyone else voice that theory other than myse...

As a kid, I was definitely picked on at the bus stop and on the bus. Not so much at school. I guess gradually attaining the reputation of "the smart kid" helped me not get as much attention for it. In...

I do this a lot, too. I always knew a good vocabulary would come in handy for more than just the SATs....

Honestly... putting myself in situations where I HAVE to speak clearly has helped me a lot. I got a job out of college working in a loud manufacturing setting (a paper mill), and I basically spent at ...

I might not do it right then and there... but I usually try to lighten the mood and making a quick yet subtle joke about my own stuttering (not a hardcore joke, just a playful one). That usually helps...

Thank you very much for your input. What possible methods can you suggest, if you don't mind?...

I won't say no, because strange things happen in this world. But it is *highly*, *highly* unlikely. Your doctor and psych prof, respectfully, have no idea what they are talking about. Sadly, most med...

Can changing back to my dominant hand fix my stuttering?

Can changing back to my dominant hand fix my stuttering? I developed a stutter around the time my mom forced me to change writing hands (from left to right around 5-6 years old). My doctor said this m...

I didn't :( I had 2 classmates in my highschool who stuttered. And 1 ex-colleague. Never brought up stuttering topic....

Having a large vocabulary so I can interchange words with ones that I won't stutter on. All depends though. Sometimes I'll say "different" just fine, others I may have to switch it to a word like var...

Hell yeah, I know I would want someone to do the same for me....

Yes I would. I'd want to talk to that person about it because I've never met another stutterer in my entire life....

Yeah, why not. If they don't wanna talk about it it's also okay for me. But maybe it can be a relieve for both. ...

Yes. I've been in that precise situation recently with a covert stutterer who couldn't hide it successfully. There was a wonderful "one of us" moment and that was about it. He seemed relieved. How...

If a stranger with a stutter talked to you, and you noticed he/she was stressed out about it, would you admit that you also stutter?

If a stranger with a stutter talked to you, and you noticed he/she was stressed out about it, would you admit that you also stutter? I don't know if it would be awkward or a relief thing. I want to kn...

Fake confidence for some reason makes me better lol. If act all confident I can speak pretty well. Can't explain it, something i learned on my own. But if I had to go with a technique probably just e...

Overwhelmingly so! I don't feel so constrained anymore and I have all of these "new" and confusing emotions that I'm pretty happy to get to experience. Sometimes my stutter makes me frustrated as wel...

Thank you, appreciate the sentiment of your statement!...

Thank you, love the smilie!...

Lol "someone I know"......
