I feel that some of you are taking the "hidding" part as a negative. Im completely upfront with my stuttering problem. Just because I try to speak normally doesnt mean im ashamed. Im just simply stati...

Hiding your stutter

Hiding your stutter Dont you think its funny when you speak with someone for a week or two and you were able to hide your stutter. All of a sudden you are stuttering and they are joking with you, tell...

I know exactly what you mean, and I'm a block stutterer as well. Sometimes I feel like with friends and strangers I'm more confident or at least I'm playing a character who's more confident than my no...

Try not to dwell at all on your stutter. Focus on the message, what you want to say, the answers to questions, etc, don't even give the stutter a second thought. I know it's easier said than done bu...

I feel like it has to deal with a lack of self conviction to who you are and holding it back because a lot of people who stutter don’t do so when they’re really angry and convinced about their stance....

The mindset to not dwell on the stutter and give much of a damn helped a lot, to really really not dwell on it at all, before, after, during, all of it! But it didn't help me realize how to fully con...

Yes, this is quite common. Many of us learn to adapt to our native language in order to stutter less. When you are learning a new language you are learning a bunch of new sounds and ways of moving you...

I have the exact opposite, I’m more fluent in English than my mother tongue (which is Dutch). I have know idea what it is but maybe because I’m more confident in English or something??...

Mind over stutter. Reminds me of a friend who also stutters and he stutters openly but i can see it just doesn't fase him and he carries on. That approach or out look on your stutter helped you overco...

I'm 14 and just take a deep breath and speak but I usually speak while moving my hands so I can express what I'm trying to say. I know a lot of people say this but just act like u met the girl/guy bef...

That’s very true, it’s still tough and I catch myself trying to hide it and my next step is to stop that...

The faster you realize this the easier it’ll be. I’m still struggling with it and it’s easier said than done but try your best to actually mean this and realize it!...

Discussion on: How Alex was able to overcome his social anxiety, and how I was able to use this same mindset to no longer hide from my stutter

This is very true, the problem with the human mind... is we remember negative things far more than positive things. 1 bad interaction can have a huge impact, but multiple good interaction barely have ...

I’m 17 and I’m a cashier and have to talk a lot sometimes over the radio so it can be tough but it’s helping. A girl I work with dyed her hair and I told her I liked it and when I did I stutter and sa...

I'm just hitting this realization now at the age of 32. There are some social interactions as of late that I've completely botched because of my stutter, but the end results turned out to be more than...

I think the judgment I face from my stutter is mostly my own judgement

I think the judgment I face from my stutter is mostly my own judgement 99% of people don’t treat me any different because of my stutter and yet I always felt people thought of me less for it. Of cours...

You pretty much said exactly how I feel. People don’t really know the true me because of how many walls I put up to prevent a stutter. Guess this view isn’t uncommon among stutterers, so it’s at least...

You're not ridiculous for feeling that way, when it is less severe I often wonder whether is was ever actually 'bad', until it gets worse then I feel even more like a twat for thinking that in the fir...
