Stutter and Social Anxiety

Stutter and Social Anxiety Hey everyone, I'm 21 years old and currently attending a top 40 nationally-ranked business school. My friends and family think I’m smart because I get good grades, but I’ve...

I’m not seeing how the research is proving the point you think it is. Correlation doesn’t equal causation. I also don’t need to use it, as I’ve dramatically reduced the impact stuttering has on me...

Thanks OP. No, I do not stutter myself but I’m a SLP doc who has worked with many who do. I get how darn ticked People Who Stutter (PWS) feel about it. And honestly, not letting stuttering define you ...

Female stutterer over here, I’ve never thought about this actually. It’s pretty interesting, I’ve only met male stutterers but I would love to hear from you girls. I personally have found it hard cons...

Anyone a whole different person when drunk?

Anyone a whole different person when drunk? Usually sober like 99% of the time unless I’m invited to some party or event I usually end up getting drunk and that’s when the social person comes outta me...

Open communication is key. If he feels like his stutter is holding him back, reach out to a speech therapist, local groups, anything that he can dive into, and learn how to manage the symptoms of st...

Hi No I don't think people are impatient, generally everyone speaks with a different pace and pattern and I am very happy to speak how I do. No-one has ever shown impatience at the pace of my speech. ...

Bro, you’re only 18. I, and so many of my peers, felt like failures and fuck-ups at 18. Even small positive changes in your life are a win. Don’t count yourself out....

I know what we go through is real.  But so is fear and stage fright of any other issue.  I am brave on some things and scared on other things that even stutterers found wild.  You can be better than m...

Thanks! Throwing it right back at you! Have an amazing time, bro! Let's get 100% percent fluent together! Hope you hit a new PR at the gym too! Have a great day!...

No problem mate and yep brother mindfulness is really game changer, I hope you recover fully and be able to speak hundred percent fluently, wish you all the best brother crush that gym session and gai...

Like I used to talk with my boxing mates and school friends and being more confident for more improvement I used to give speech infront of everyone like at initial times I used to stutter a lot but gr...

That's sounds like a great idea! I believe every stutterer can become a confident public speaker. Once you master that skill, everything will seem easy in comparison. Try it out! Onward!...

I'm planning to join toastmasters, I don't know whether it helps or not, but I hope it make me more confident...

Try to remember that everyone has traits they struggle with. Ours just happens to be right out in the open. As you get older, people will mock you less and less. Those who continue to mock you into ...

Cures don't really exist in medicine at all unfortunately. However, I believe we can get to a point where its managed, just like somebody with diabetes is managed with insulin. I hope that makes sense...

I can't believe I didn't get into this community earlier. You guys gave me so much confidence that it's actually possible. I'll definitely try all of this. I can't thank you enough. Keep being awesome...

So if I were you, I would find a way to stop relying on the boosters because it will always require you to keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Like I said, I still rely on boosters, but on...
