Some people are born extroverts and don't have a problem being the center of attention. Others, like me, were born extroverts, but stuttering suppressed their social life. After getting rid of my bag...

Stuttering is not the problem. The problem is being uncomfortable by it. If you teach a young child to be ignore their repetitions (including others’ reactions), it will not develop secondary charact...

I don't stutter when I talk to myself

I don't stutter when I talk to myself I'm 23M and a stutterer since my childhood. But when I'm alone and I speak to myself or reading a book out loud I don't stutter at all. For me It only happens whe...

Na not true, check out deepinder goyal, he is ceo and founder of a very big indian company called zomato and he is pretty open about his stutter too and from what i know he came from a very humble bac...

That’s so heart wrenching to hear. A big hug to you. But be brave that’s all I can say. Life is not easy not in school not in college and certainly not in job. I’m in my early thirties and speaking in...

Honestly, i dont think there are any positives of stuttering that I could tell you. But personally, its also a part of who I am right now. I have lived a good enough life by my standards and this woul...

I have had the "bad habit" of stuttering since childhood and I can feel your pain. When the teacher asks me to read a few lines from the chapter, for me that was like a nightmare situation. When I gre...

Are you kidding me? Do not apologize, do people with southern drawls who speak extremely slow apologize? Or people from Boston who don't pronounce their Rs? It's just how we talk...

Absolutely, almost all stutterers want to be speakers and blame our stuttering for all the bad things that happen in our lives, but it's not true actually. I’ve been stuttering since I was 3, and for ...

Sometimes a persons insecurity can be their favourite thing about you. Keep your head high and one day you’ll find the one. Don’t beat yourself up about it. If it puts somebody off , they aren’t the r...

It’s so hard for me to actually believe that anyone could accept me and actually like me

It’s so hard for me to actually believe that anyone could accept me and actually like me I know logically that there is people who don’t care about my stutter, that there’s people who will like me any...

Honestly 100% agree. I’ve grown to embrace my stutter as a 25 year old 😅 it’s definitely gotten better at work especially but if I have to repeat myself that’s when my brain just shuts off 😂😂...

Lol, My struggle bus letters are M L D (W also but depending on my anxiety, or a bad case of the Stutter spudders) and B. So I already give warning that I can't say my name, most everyone who knows m...

The worst thing anyone can do is let their speech disfluency absolutely dominate their life. Im more interested in how people overcome their issues, then listening to “oh woah is me” stories. I don’t ...

G'day! I'll try to explain this in a more or less brief way. But keep in mind that stuttering is, after all, a very subjective matter, and that perhaps what "worked" for me is not the same as what wi...

Does anyone else use their stutter as a joke?

Does anyone else use their stutter as a joke? One of my favorite things to do just to make sure everyone knows I’m fully aware and totally cool with my stutter, is to wait for the perfect moment. The ...

Take it all. I've never had sex so might as well toss it in the tall grass never to be seen again. Give me fluency. Sweet sweet vocal fluency....

Fuck noooo. That’s not even an option in my mind. I’ll toughen it out with the stutter. If there was a stuttering president I will be fine...

Stutter doesn’t make you or me any better or worse than anyone, my guy, at the end we’re still humans, so, no, I don’t necessarily need to be empathic to anyone but myself....

Yes very hard to watch / hear for me too. I think the reason for me is that I internalised the belief that people who stammer are somewhat inferior (as I probably think so of myself) therefore any tim...
