How can my interviewer make the experience better for me? I gave my interviewer a heads-up that I am a stammerer and he asked how he can make the interviewer a better experience for me. Please, how ...

I definitely do not think it is necessary. I opened up to my senior manager during my internship a while about having a bit of a stutter at times, and asked for some tips when presenting meetings at w...

Thanks for the reply! It is definitely a long process and needs courage and work. I have a question: Do you think that telling people about your stutter before speaking is necessary? I feel like I ...

I would look into speech therapy as it's really diminishing your self-esteem - you shouldn't view speech therapists as a cure to make stuttering go away as there is no cure, but a good one will help b...

It's okay to stutter, it's not a crime, and famous people don't let it hold them back, but it only becomes a problem when it begins to really be impacting your self-esteem which it clearly is by the s...

Tell him you stutter and it may take you a bit longer to get out what you are trying to say....

I’m a 26m also with more of a mild stutter. Personally, I would say that you should do whatever makes you feel the most comfortable. If self-disclosing your stutter before meeting reduces some anxiety...

To ne honest I never take meds for stuttering. In the last week I've started pushing myself to talk and practice daily for 1 to 2 hours doing lives in Facebook groups and pushing to talk to people in ...

CONGRATS! I had a job interview the other day (lawyer) and she asked me my biggest weakness. I told her about my stutter. I. Got. The. Job. They can’t hold us down!!!!...

When I got my job as an EE, manager took out the team for a lunch meet and greet. Obviously the talking point was the new hire. I was anxious knowing that I was about to do a lot of talking. I was gon...

Good advice. I try my best to not say sorry because it sets the tone that something is wrong with me. I hope that makes sense....

I'm sorry, I know how much that sucks. I had a really bad stutter a few weeks ago while I was leading a group Zoom chat with a professional guest in attendance. UGH. Personally, I find it helpful to s...

Disclose your stuttering, first thing. Sounds crazy, right? Crazy like a fox - it works. Why? Because YOU decide when the listener finds out. And because you have told them, they’re very unlikely to m...

No one accepts your stutter more than your partner. I tell stories to my girlfriend all the time and sometimes I stutter, yet she still listens carefully. What you say matters, regardless of how you s...

I have a stutter and am currently engaged too. I feel the same way sometimes. I just let myself talk about whatever is on my mind. Because she is the only person that I try to fully open up to. You mi...
