I know what you are talking about. I was in the same position 1st to 9th grade. School was pain. Reading aloud was a pain. Presentations were a pain! Talking with friends wasn't that bad, though. An...

I’ve had a moderate-severe stutter my entire life. I’m in my late 30’s now and about to start my first job as Physician Assistant. I had a similar experience as yours when first going off to coll...

Yes. Over the last 2 years since I started my new job it has gotten worse. I really don’t like talking overall but I feel like that’s a factor and not using my speech motor...

:( U are living my life (but 40 years later). My stutter started in 3rd grade. Became so bad that i would not even be able to say "hello" when i answered the phone - and would not even try. Trying...

Hey bud, I know how you feel. I’ve been there. Just wanna say there is no reason to get desperate. At 20 years old, I wouldn’t be able to even come close to “accepting” it. It’s hard to picture it n...

I am. I feel your situation. It will get easier if you practice more. If giving briefing, have a script or talking points help. Ask your doc for Zoloft meds if you want to try. I find that incredibly ...

I've been into fitness (weightlifting) for more than 35 years, and it's made no difference with my stuttering. I'm sure speaking practice can help at least a little....

I train and present at work. Since I stutter, I practice the hell out of my presentations. That helps me cut the fat, clarify things and answer questions before they are asked. If I did not stutter...

I always thought that doing ONLY speech therapy has diminishing returns. For me, any improvement lasted only in the beginning. You need a booster to your confidence also. Pick a skill or habit that h...

OP, public speaking is probably the worst fear I had to get over too! But after 2 years of hard work I managed to do it. DM me, if you want some tips and my personal help!...

I’m an NA who’s going to be a nurse. It works okay. My coworkers all understand, but most of the issues stem from patients. Psych patients and geriatric can be the worst about it, but honestly most pa...

I see a reflection of my past self in your words. In short, I improved by getting a "booster" to my confidence. I found something that has a linear path of progression and you can also see the results...

I am grateful that I went through this pain at an early age. It taught me discipline, it toughed me up, forced me to not laze about and is the reason I started my business. However, I can't say that m...

You aren't the problem. Don't belittle yourself! I used to relive my embarrassing moments also, as I had an especially problematic stutter when publicly reading. In the back of the car on my way home;...

I’m a bedside RN in a surgical trauma ICU. Admittedly there is a lot of communication. My stutter has never been an issue for me, but you will have to talk a lot. As a patient advocate to Doctors, t...

Any tech professional who stutters?

Any tech professional who stutters? I have a tech job. It's really hard to nagivate and articulate my thoughts. My school and college days were competitive and i didn't care about others as I wanted t...

Sadly in India back in early 2000's, I suffered much in college due to this. Professor even asked me why can't you rectify your stutter. Explaining the experiments was really hard and my team mates ge...

Life is so uneven. Promising to suffering ,then back to promising. Stuttering is brutal in many lives. Mostly rich kids with stutter get the most support to win in their life. For others, reaching 80%...
