I am going to be honest with you. Your boyfriend knows.  For example, everyone I know, knows that I stutter. But no one brings it up. People don't really talk about others disability, it's weird awk...

Well the alternative is to give up and be miserable. If something isn’t working then you change it up and keep tweaking the strategy. There is an infinite amount of variability in this world. It’s imp...

I think he knows lol! He probally just doesn’t mention it. I consider myself a “ convert” stutter and when I told one of my coworkers I stutter their response was “ oh I already knew that”....

I don't think he'll be mad. Most probably he already knows you stutter, but it doesn't bother him. Happy for you though ...

If you intend on being with him for the long-term, which it seems like you might be considering you’ve already committed over a year, you need to tell him! Just explain your sensitivity to discussing ...

>*"Is it the stutter or the fear that comes first, the chicken or the egg"* You raise an excellent point! I completely agree that for most young children, stuttering likely came before the conditione...

In my experience, emotional state correlates deeply with stutter. Anxiety, tiredness, or strong emotions of fear trigger it. Also self-steem too. As it is something neurological rather than phisical, ...

If it wasn’t for speech therapy I would have never been educated about what was wrong with me and why I couldn’t speak properly. I see speech therapy as more a self help guide so I could explore my co...

Wear a monocle. But seriously, I often get in my own head about that as well with the eye closing, fluttering, twitching, etc., which does create something of a feedback loop. I would love to know a...

I've almost overcome my stutter now, at least I'm at a point where I don't really struggle that much and others don't notice it at all anymore (people look at me like a deer in the headlights when I t...

I feel like as long as I stutter, there's no way I'll have any friends.

I feel like as long as I stutter, there's no way I'll have any friends. There are a lot of people trying to connect with me but I just can't develop friendships because of my stuttering. I used to thi...

Hey. Just wanted to add my thoughts to this. I've spent 120+ hours in speech therapy and – looking back – it didn't really do much. Then again, I struggle with other problems as well and I think I jus...

i’m honestly surprised people are still finding this post lol. in terms of my stutter, i’d say it’s overall gotten better, to the point where you can say i don’t really have one (it’s also better wh...

I had the same thoughts as you. "I'm a freak" "somethings wrong with me" etc etc. However, there are things going on in the brain that are unrelated to you as a person. Let me explain further. We don'...

How is it going for me!

How is it going for me! Hi I have never posted anything here as far as i remember but I think it's my duty now to write something hopeful and motivating to this overly depressed sub. Im 18 years old n...

The subreddit’s description talks about how the goal is to get people with a disability into romance with someone with a disabled or non disabled. But I entirely agree with you though....

I don't consider my disabled. Having a stutter doesn't mean that I shouldn't date people who have disabilities...

No point dwelling on that, I've once repeated a letter for over 3 minutes in a class full of students and fellow teachers, that's not my problem, I am a stutterer and it happens, same for you as well....

I feel the exact same:( I feel I wish I could convey how intelligent I am but I just come off as dumb sometimes :(...

Stutterers are mostly great and kind human beings born with lot of intelligence. Majority of intelligence go unused due to the low profile life adopted by them in 95% of the cases....
