Panic Attacks

Panic Attacks I have recently started to get frequent panic attacks because of my stuttering in university. It gets worse over the years. Shame and anxiety don't pass. I wish I could survive without s...

Heavily mocked by a taxi driver

Heavily mocked by a taxi driver I just don't care anymore. Can't feel anything, good or bad. Life is just a bad joke....

I'm 48 and just stuttered in a meeting the other day. Couldn't say agreement and blocked for like 30 seconds. It was really embarrassing. It feels horrible when it happens. The way people look at you ...

No. It's shameful. Also we should care because we live in a society, not in wilderness. Try anything you can in order to reduce your stuttering. It's not a thing to be proud of....

I'm 17 too, and I'm in year 12 (I'm from England, and so i think that's junior year in the US) and so I think we've probably had similar experiences up to now. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with ...

I’m so sorry you are going through this. I had just as much of a hard time in high school. In fact I still have vivid dreams about embarrassing presentations and getting called on to read and barely b...

Hi. I've been there. Speaking out loud in class felt like one of the worth things ever and that was in the 70s/80s. I know how you feel. ​ Regarding your friends, if they are your friends, ...

Have you become numb by people’s reactions to your stutter?

Have you become numb by people’s reactions to your stutter? Like you don’t care anymore. Like you don’t feel ashamed anymore. Has it gotten to this point already? Listening to Numb by Linkin Park mig...

I would suggest talking to your teacher about it and see if you can do an alternate assignment. They should be understanding. I know for me it was a relief just to tell someone I stuttered instead of ...

A lot of us feel less important. Stuttering does real damage to our sense of self worth. Today needs to be the day you look in the mirror and see the most important person in the world. Every time ...

I remember basically getting gang banged by 4 DIs my first day in my platoon because I started stuttering when we were sounding off, they were like “scream out your face”😂😂...

I went in when I was 21, it wasn’t really that hard but my stutter just made it so much worse, I still have nightmares about it haha, kind recluses my self from life after that lol, nothing but failur...

I have big relation to what you’ve went through and I am to experience it tomorrow, a painful presentation, the mockery and disgust pointed just as you said. I don’t mean to speak of negativity but we...

I’m so sorry to hear how you are feeling about this. As some people have already said, high school itself can be rough and teenagers can be shitty. So hang in there and endure a little bit more until ...

I still have dreams of fire watch , it was horrible I couldn’t even get the first sentence out, my DI asked how i even got thru Melps that I was mentally retarted that I couldn’t even talk, that did i...

Just one bad day dsnt define ur life. The bright side is despite of knowing ur limitations you had the courage to face the audience and complete the presentation. Dont let stutter define ur persona. E...

I’m done

I’m done I’m 17 and in my senior year of high school. I had to give a 15 minute presentation last week that eventually turned into a complete disaster. My stutter has been unbearably worse this past ...

They laughed at me.

They laughed at me. I was in school waiting outside the classroom for the teacher to open up (she was running late and the class was already waiting outside it). I leaned up against a wall to wait, no...

I know exactly what you are talking about. I've been fairly fluent these past 3ish years and I had this moment happen to my last Saturday when I had to ask for a to-go box. Ngl I was embarrassed, but...

Letting everything out

Letting everything out I just came across this sub and wanted to let everything I have about my stutter because I feel like you all will understand. I am fifteen years old and have had a stutter for...
