Ehhh…I have mixed feelings on this. First, I agree with you. It’s a tad insulting and weird if you think about it. But, I know from experience that the person saying it truly means well and is trying...

Weird suggestion... You could write your name and number on a piece of paper and hand it to her (give a puppy dog eyes smile too) as you leave (whatever event it is you're at) and write "text me" on i...

Thank you so much!! I always try to tell people beforehand that I stutter, but in a school environment it can be embarrassing...

Yes, do it! I have always had easier times speaking publicly when I’ve advertised beforehand than not. It eases the pressure to be fluent. Good luck!...

Talk about it often. This will make hiding it not a thing since you are telling people and being open about it. Good luck hang in there you’re definitely not alone...

Stutter freely! When you try not to stutter, you only stutter more. Before your speech, relieve the pressure on yourself to perform by being honest with your audience. Tell them you stutter, in your o...

33/M here. It's always going to be hard, but it gets easier. The older you get, the more you realize that people are generally nice. They'll wait for you to finish, and won't look down on you for stut...

I often start with " I have a stutter, I'm not a DJ but I may bringing in the remix during this talk"...

Yes do it! It will make the listners more comfortable as well. Not that we should care but you know there are times when it's in our interest so should care that they don't get surprised or feel awkw...

I'm a teacher with 20+ years experience. Some days can be challenging, but the students usually aren't a problem. I open every year by talking about my stutter, coaching them on their reaction, and th...

I am a teacher. I’ve taught fifth grade for more than 20 years. Some years I’ve been more fluent than others, but in general my speech is a struggle pretty much every day. What has worked best for me ...

I spent so many years of my life not sharing my thoughts because I was afraid of stuttering and that makes me so sad. I still do it sometimes. As I got older, I adopted a DGAF attitude. Now I'm a prof...

How did you get invited? If you already knew them somehow in real life, which I'm guessing you did, they already knew you stutter and don't care....

To dovetail on this, we care about our speech so much more than everyone else. Let people know that you stutter, and most people won't hold it against you (even a little). Many will even find it endea...

This has been one of my biggest struggles also. I've always felt so alone with this. I've always tried to avoid many things in fear of group projects, ice breakers, etc. Now when I am forced to say my...

Move through your words, stutter or not, just keep going. You want an exercise in confidence go tell 5 random people you stutter🙂...

I just did this last week for grad school. When it was my turn to say a little about myself infront the class I said “Hi my name is ___, I have a stutter so if you hear me stuttering that’s why” and t...

I'm working on it! My goal for college is to be more open about it. I used to do ANYTHING to avoid telling people I stuttered, even when it ended up just making people think I was super weird. But rec...
