I find that it really helps to simply tell people, “I have a stutter”. You can try to put it in a humorous manner, if you can, but just state it. ☺️ Honestly, no one has ever made fun of me for my s...

For me it's the first impression I give to someone. Meeting people is difficult already for a shy person like me, but I'll also have to explain that I have a stutter after having stuttered in my name....

This is it. I haven’t had someone be malicious about it since I was like 11. I’m 35 now. I try to use it as an opportunity to build awareness....

As an adult, I pretty never have people make fun of me. I do get strangers who make light hearted jokes sometimes that mean nothing by, they’re just ignorant. You know ‘did you forget your name?’ Or w...

99% of the time, if someone makes fun of your stutter it’s cus they didn’t know you have a stutter. No one is maliciously doing it. I just say “hey I have a stutter” and they typically apologize or ...

I'm assuming you're thinking I'm recording stuff in a studio booth around a lot of people. I haven't done anything that big yet. Pretty much everything I've done has been online, recorded in my room w...

I don't think so, all of my previous partners didn't even mention that I had a stutter. They didn't care about it or talk about it at all. I'm in my early twenties, and I've dated plenty before lol. D...

Telling them that we stutter is better than becoming more anxious about next conversations for hiding it! Always helps....

Ahh I'm sorry :( it sucks how much social emberaasment comes with stuttering, esp blocking.. Something that helps me for some reason is telling the person immediately after I get stuck on my name is t...

Once I let everyone know I stutter.. my speaking got easier...and better.. I was more relaxed having conversations...I heard that song " I gotta be me" and took inspiration.. ...the pretending tryin...

makes it way easier. Sometimes in my experiences I like saying my orders but it's rare. I gotta be having a full confidence day. I don't mind saying codes at drive thru's but I hate saying my name but...

You shouldn’t make it look like a problem. In fact, many will describe it as a strength as it helps them connect with people who may speak differently, or shows While many people do not care if som...

There is no control. Control is an illusion. I disclose my stutter before every single presentation so that they know what they are going to see and hear.......this brings down the audiences level ...

I’ve been introducing myself as smiley for years, people eventually learn my real name and usually call me that but smiley just rolled off the tongue for me so it’s helps to diffuse the tension when i...

Is it common for stutterers to use nicknames?

Is it common for stutterers to use nicknames? I've had a stutter since I was a child (I'm 20 now). I want to have a normal life and have fun, but saying my name has caused me so much anxiety that I'm ...

So I was job hunting recently (in the UK) and I disclosed it during the application process every time. People are quite accommodating and for one I even said: "I have a stutter that flares up in un...

I stuttered on all my hinge/tinder dates when I was actively dating. I’ve had everyone point it out to me to my face and I just say “yes, I have a stutter” no explanation or anything. I continue on an...

I would say in your daily interaction with strangers you don't have to mention it, but I think in a job interview I should explain it first because I guess surely he will ask about it...

Probably wouldn't mention it until I actually stutter. Then Id probably casually disclose I have a stutter and keep moving on...
