I go to the gym, a nice lad around my age keeps saying hey Seán how’s it going, I say it’s going great how about yourself. I forgot his name because I was trying to hide my stutter but wasn’t focused ...

Should I tell my boss that I stutter?

Should I tell my boss that I stutter? So I got a job as a bank teller and I’m really proud of myself and I look forward to this job. After shadowing the other tellers and training I realized I’m g...

It got better as an adult purely because I’m much more confident and care much less. Plus after experience of putting yourself in uncomfortable situations, you kind of learn to move through it. Publ...

Mine is the same. But I’m a bit better at masking it. However, the stakes when it does sneak out are now higher (work presentations, job interviews, etc.)...

I don't think there's anything "usual" about stuttering. Allegedly my grandpa also used to stutter until his early twenties and then he just stopped completely. Being near to 30 by now I'd say that ...

Mild to moderate, my stutter is situation based with my friends I am completely fluent and during formal situation words don’t even come out of my mouth 🥹...

Oh defiantly I’ve experienced it, I’m almost 30 now and it’s not as bad as when I was younger but from time to time it does get to me and I’m depressed af about it because I look back on the things I ...

Yeah. It’s hard to express yourself to people. Some people just assume you’re weak because of it. For me, I just like to be to myself and have my own space. It’s not healthy, but it’s how i manage....

Same issue I just prefer working from office because my stutter gets really bad on phones...

I work from home but most of my time is on video calls. It took me a while to adjust. I am happy I don’t have to commute but I miss the banter of the office. I feel relationships are far more shallow...

I used to work at a drive thru, it was awful. Our headphone set had a static sound that would constantly buzz and it made it very difficult to hear customers orders. Staff would complain to management...

Yep I stutter enough where sometimes is hard to to communicate but overall I live life as a normal person unless I’m trying to order a spicy deluxe of chick fil a but at that point I tell my sister to...

One skill that’ll help you as someone that stutter is to not care about what other people say about you or your stutter. It’s not easy and it took me forever to understand this. But once you understan...

One thing I learned in my 25+ years of stuttering is that I shouldn't care what others think of me. I can't control their behavior, I can only control mine. Also, don't show that you're angry or an...

Sometimes I am also just afraid. The past few days I have been. Especially around my mom I have been avoiding speaking on the phone. But for the past few days I have been able to speak well on the pho...

Bad loop

Bad loop I feel so badly stuck these days that idk how to fix it or what to do about it. It’s a constant negative loop where I’m constantly thinking about my stutter. I’m avoid interacting with new pe...

Dude, DM any of us. I’ve been almost there, I got some speech therapy (2002), some perspective changes on life and have a little niche I’ve made for myself. Fear is a choice and this world is wait...

You deserve an amazing job because you’re qualified, passionate and an asset to their team. Your stutter doesn’t make you any less of those things. One thing that helped me was working on my confidenc...

Listeners might perceive autistic traits in our 'stutter behavior': * We (stutterers) might rehearse scripts for social scenarios. Not because we actually have autism, rather because we might feel mo...
