Please do not misunderstand what I'm about to say next--I'm coming from a good place and I'm only saying this because I really do not want you to go through the same situation ever again. I am not s...

Everybody in this discussion is here for you. I'm sorry that happened to you. Because of a disability you have. They lowered your grade? No wonder the education system is so fucked up. Feel free to me...

Wrote mine about my stutter for law school as well!...

I haven't gone to law school, but I have gone to university and the first half was atrocious. Super painful with hiding and shame. The 2nd half was joyous and social (even though I was stuttering). ...

I start nursing school in 2 weeks and I feel good about it, but I know I will probably deal with this too. 2 things that I’m really trying to key in are speaking confidently and making sure I have eno...

It’s hard to know for sure without listening to it but it may very well be as stuttering is quite common in children (usually starting at the ages of 2-4) and most (90% IIRC) out grow it. My advice wo...

My oldest never asked questions. Maybe because my stutter had some what improved. I wouldn’t stutter as much, just constantly getting suck with certain words or when nervous. (Since Covid though, my s...

29 year old lady here!! :) hello! I started stuttering as a kid, and it decreased as I got older then it got worse in my college years. Not really sure what happened. but - here we are!...

Sad part is, we never ask for pity or tend to cause annoyance. People automatically assume it. Which tends to piss us off. My teachers did nothing about it. In fact they made fun of it more than the s...

This was me all through school (grades 1 through 12). I was isolated from everyone and told I was stupid, slow, and had mental retardation. You are not alone. I don't want to say the cliche that "i...

When I was in university one of my schoolmate will always laugh and mimic my stutter. I can remember him saying “say it again? Say it again?”. Keep it mind I am a physiotherapist so we were future the...

1. Both, my stutter has a mind of it's own. 2. Vowels, the letters W, K, C and any letter that is followed by a long vowel tend to trigger my stutter. 3. I have never paid attention to it. 4. I expe...

Bruh I know how you feel. I'm doing my internship and I have to presented in front of kids for like a 2 or 3 hours a day. My stuttering was so bad today, I felt my anxiety increasing. At the end...

Can someone suggest a zoom group where I can practice and improve my fluency and reduce my stuttering?

Can someone suggest a zoom group where I can practice and improve my fluency and reduce my stuttering? Hi there, I live in Bangladesh and my stuttering is mild in Bengali but downright horrible in E...

Awful, stuttered my way through the whole thing but I get my results in a week I got interrogated by one of the interviewers because he claimed I never sent in my current resume when I had but it jus...

Yea I've had that many times. Emailing the teacher forsure is the move. Not only will it take pressure off of your for your next oral but any type of lingering resentment might be deflated if you be...

Yeah people tend to be more understanding but try to practice your public speaking and team work to the maximum. Had the same situation as you, so I started avoiding all these situations were my stu...

1. Yes I did 2. Most of my elementary years 3. I did help but I feel like my stutter still kept me from doing things that I wanted to do. 4. Slowing my speech, I would rush and stutter so much. I s...

I had the exact same fear. I intentionally chose a very large college. Why? Because the notion of being in a small class where I was expected to interact terrified me. I wanted to go somewhere that I ...

I'm not using chat - which for some reason turns off private messages too. It's a thing they didn't really consider when they introduced New Reddit next to Old Reddit....
