The nice thing is we are all fluent in the international language....

I am so thankful that i dont stutter on my name. I have several words i just cant say, but my name is not a problem. ...

I advise you to try and act as if it doesn't exist or at least don't pay too much attention to it. Good or bad. Because even when someone tries to tell me its ok, I understand, I suddenly become aware...

Thanks, that's very inspirational and that's what my other physician professors told me too. That it won't be a big problem as they have many friends in the field but you'd have to make a certain syst...

Wow that's a good theory. I'm not too fond of marijuana because I heard it kills motivation/initiation and maybe even memory but I have always thought about trying it for experimental purposes, hence ...

I can definitely do the introductions! Thank you for the help. I read someone compare stuttering to having an accent. They said you get use to it. So I'm hoping that I'll be able to pick up on what wo...

You're welcome! Glad I could help. Introductions of any kind are usually nightmares for people with a stutter. Having confidence is the hardest thing to do with a stutter, but it's also the most impo...

I also find that when I block some people (even my SO, or family) say "what?" like I as finished and they didn't hear it and I'd have to start at the beginning. Also usually, for me anyway, hearing ...

Thank you! I have a degree in interpersonal communication so I think I'll be good at being an active listener. I like the tip of asking if he wants me to order for him. ...

Thanks for the advice! I can see how someone could think they're helping but actually coming off across as rude. This is exactly the point of view I need. I think he "blocks". He mentioned getting rea...

We have the same name haha. I've always had so much trouble getting the A down but usually when I introduce myself, I begin with "My name is.." To help me get a flow. Either that or when I'm standing ...

I stutter and smoke regularly, and I've found that low amounts of cannabis actually do help increase my fluency. There's a little bit of science behind it, but none that has looked directly at the cor...

Let him say what he wants to say, my wife sometimes helps me with a word if i have a real bad block but she never cuts me off and starts talking about something else because I have a pause. To me, whe...

I find Concerta does as well....

Before clicking the link I didn't know if I could stomach another over-positive unrealistic advice video. I was pleasantly surprised. He gave good advice and real world examples. Thanks for the link!...

First off, props on being a great person! Very nice of you to try and figure out how to make him more comfortable. I would start off by just assuring him that you don't mind and that the stutter is n...

What advice do you have for someone dating someone who stutters?

What advice do you have for someone dating someone who stutters? Happy Friday Eve! I have a date soon with a guy who stutters. Most all of our conversations have been through text so I don't know ho...

I only smoke alone or with close friends and read/play computer games/watch netflix. It is extremely relaxing when I am alone. I would never go to a social gathering stoned though. ...

I am calling BS on stuttering preventing you from becoming a "great" doctor. i am not in the medical field but the only road blocks i can see is 1) difficulty networking with other doctors, 2) diffic...

The CBD sounds interesting. Weed, in general, makes my stutter worse for many reasons. It makes me hyper aware and thus hyper anxious. I would like to try the isolated chemical though...
