Shameless obvious advertising aside, "I know from experience, dude" and I know like 30 other people for whom fluency shaping doesn't work. In fact, I think i've only met one or two stutterers who have...

I totally feel you. I used to stutter in my native language, but I learned to manage it and today I'm fluent. However, when it comes to english, I feel like a failure. The worst part is that I feel th...

Of coarse it's hard to deal with and some people don't even understand how it feels. I don't know the type of stutter you have. I have the "block" one...if I can call it that. It is as if the word or ...

Haha I've done this before, god I hate the 'sickie' phone call! Pro tip: call early just before opening hours when you know your manager isn't there, then you can send an email instead: "tried to cal...

Stuttering has taken a massive shit on my emotions and outlook on life. If I didn't stutter I would have maybe been outgoing because of how I am at home with my family. I talk a lot and crack jokes al...

I'm sorry to hear that your stutter is affecting your life. I can totally understand where you are coming from. Once the cat is out of the bag that you stutter, it gets so much easier. People will get...

Anyone here who feels like their stutter keeps them from doing things in life should seek out speech therapy. There are many things you can do to work towards acceptance of the disorder. It worked for...

People know you stutter, right? I mean, cat's already out of the bag, might as well stop avoiding it. Take whatever time and/or action you need to get your message out. Really, when you think about it...

Low esteem is definitely related to stuttering. Sometimes my days start shitty, sometimes they start good, but however, I've learned that my conversation with people can influence that a lot. If I t...

That sucks man. I've been there. I know it's hard but you gotta face some of this stuff. Some people think courage is something you have but in reality it's something you actively do. So what if you w...

I know the feeling. I haven't had a sick day in work for 6 years because even when I'm lying in bed thinking I'm going to die, I'd rather drag myself into work and do manual labour than pick up the ph...

Although I am basically a native English speaker, the stutter and stumbles makes me sound like some new foreigner. Wrong impression to strangers. I sometimes talk in my broken second language just t...

I hate calls, forced introductions, and roll calls. Luckily they don't bother with constant roll in college or work. Take it as a reason to be punctual--the tardy people will always be asked their nam...

damn man, I've been there, multiple times, but it's a trap you're making for yourself, a paradox. This is because you realize there is no escape, no escaping your speech impediment, no escaping how ot...

I think we all have the same feelings here. Seeing the obvious greener grass and all those things a fluent voice can bring. I mean, you've probably sat there listening to nonsense and wanted to correc...

I worked in IT support and currently retail. Never thought I would end up in either of these two positions but well, they helped me overcome anxieties about my mild stutter. It'll happen, I'll have re...

Hahaha, I've done this plenty of times. It only makes things worse. The more you keep avoiding it, the more you will fear it....
