Do your supervisors know you stutter? I would have told the lady I stutter so at least she could feel bad, but I am not sure you wanted to go that route. And sorry this happened: I hate the “semi-invi...

Thanks for the reply! I am sorry to learn of your condition. I generally do only healthy habits and because of the long period of time I have done them, the confidence boost has become permanent. F...

I don’t use tiktok,so all I know Is this is a video of a woman speaking with repetitions. So…what is the evidence it’s fake, other than OP saying it is? And what on earth is the benefit of views on T...

Hi, apologize for just getting back with you. Been meaning to respond. So by passive I almost a question of asking ourself why do we need to DO something to feel good about ourself? If it’s doing th...

I couldn’t tell you why but I can tell you I’m very similar in that when I’m more confident my speech is noticeably improved. Sounds like when you’re doing something you’re not super confident in (spe...

I would say you should do the exchange. I got more confident in myself by forcing myself to talk (I studied abroad). And in new environment I know it is hard to introduce, get anxious. but people don...

If a date doesn’t want you because you stutter, that’s gonna be a harsh relationship. If a job doesn’t like you because you stutter, imagine how they treat other disabilities. Despite stuttering my wa...

Thank you, and yes i don't like how my life was always like, i want to change, i need to change. I understood that there are things you can't change, so don't bother yourself with them, focus on the t...

Yes of course. I feel comfortable to talk with people who stutter themselves. Maybe it’s a belief that I won’t be judged, I don’t know. 🤷‍♀️ talk to him about your fears and issues...

Have hope that like it being severe right now, it can change. I’m a 78f who has experienced stages of better fluency. Also, take advantage of every possible treatment. Don’t overlook self-treatment as...

Same. Sometimes I say something not because it's what I want to say but because it's just easier for me to say. And I 100% agree about other things that you mentioned too. But hey, it'll get better. ...

I met my boyfriend in High School. I was 17, now 21. I was masking at this point. I can no longer mask anymore, I completely exhausted myself over the years. Eventually, I told him about my stutter an...

Your English is fine. Your courage will be your greatest asset. Stuttering, like we do takes guts. Your education will go far in your life success regardless of stuttering. We stutterers can have happ...

Not caring about it actually dwarfs the anxiety that comes with stuttering so you can speak more fluent and also think/react better in the situation. But you should psychologically figure out how to d...

My stuttering surely lead me to the point where I’m at now. Long story short is that because of my stuttering I had huge social anxiety (was literally afraid to ask people on street how to get somewhe...

It’s very hard to not think about that. It can make you miserable, though. I love that you realize your stutter is making you someone you don’t hate. I think it has the power to give people the abilit...

Yes, we all do. All we can do now is to do everything we can to reduce it. Real speech therapy, self therapies, psychological therapy to deal with your feelings and self acceptance. Most of all, reali...

Wow, thanks. I’ve stuttered since early childhood. The intensity has varied. In high school it was then worse but since then has vacillated from severe, rarely, to mild/moderate throughout my adult li...

Do you often think on where you'd be in life if you never stuttered?

Do you often think on where you'd be in life if you never stuttered? I very often find myself pondering where I'd be in life if I never stuttered. Would I still be my same reclusive self? Probably, bu...
