Yeah, it's like I don't think I should be labeled as disabled because I can still do so much. I don't think I'm "worthy" of that title....

Thats awesome! I never really thought that my stutter was a disability, yet somehow it makes perfect sense.....

Haha, but stuttering is technically a Disability, and yet I don’t know how I feel about it either to be honest, it kindve makes me feel like I’m not as good as everyone else if I have a disability. Bu...

Sometimes stuttering helps

Sometimes stuttering helps I'm a summer research intern at a popular hospital with about 140 other undergraduates. Yesterday me and 5 other students got an email saying to come to a meeting today to ...

Interesting read! I’m not sure which I have now. I’ve definitely got something. The thing is, I don’t speak very fast - on the contrary, I can hardly get a word in edgewise because I’m too slow about ...

Brave to post your challenge, but actually stuttering as a fluency disorder is not characterized as stereotypical only stuttering initial consonants. Your stuttering is quite normal and typical. There...

Yeah I wouldn’t call mine a literal disability because my stutter comes and goes when the conditions are right, such as under pressure or talking to someone i don’t know. I feel it’s based on a psycho...

As for stutter pride its not so much about saying stuttering doesn't suck. All of us would get rid of it instantly if we could. It's more about coming to terms with the fact that stutters can't be cur...
