My current employer don’t even know I have stutter. I plan to tell them but I’m afraid to open up with them. I’m kinda uncomfortable when they are waiting for me to speak since I paused for like 5 se...

I’d have a general attitude where you’re open about it as much as possible. I am 38 and hide mine, which makes things much harder....

In my experience as an adult.. no one cares about my stutter. Most people dont care unless it effects them.. its in our heads that people care about it. Many times I've been stuck stuttering and apolo...

I stuttered for 70 years and I can attest that stuttering was much worse than any side effect. I was given Abilify, an atypical antipsychotic. I also was undergoing psychotherapy. My stuttering total...

There is currently a larger study being conducted at NIH. The sample size is appropriate and the double-blind nature may give a definitive answer. Medication might not be the answer to all stuttering,...

I’m writing this to let you know that you are not alone. I recently visited my relatives and they started asking me about my school/career. There were long pauses between each of my words and I had to...

Frustration dump. (I know I’m not the only one who goes through this stuff, just consider this a venting post) I have to more or less scope my hobbies out based on my speech. I tried golf and do enj...

Eye contact enemy #1

Eye contact enemy #1 It’s gotten so bad. I’m at such a low point I don’t know how to pull myself out of it. I can’t even look my girlfriend in the eyes when I talk. I hit a block and instantly close...

Yeah this is pretty much me. Speech therapy hasn't done much for me, and I'm wondering if it's because even though I've been working hard and practicing my instinct is still to never speak unless I ab...

Yes, been in practice for over 30 years. Intervention pain management. I recall being super stressed in med school… almost like I was hiding some terrible secret , less so in anesthesiology residency ...
