I can relate to this. My biggest problem is when I am on the phone and I can not see the other person or read their body language. With a phone call there are so many other variables at play than ...

Can you share it? I really like get an idea about it. I too want to write a personal statement about my stuttering for an organization. Edit: I want to learn from it, cuz I’m nit native English, and I...

I totally empathize with this rant. I am in law school, and well, lawyers need to be able to talk in front of people. the trick that has worked for me is to talk to every one of my professors at the b...

So glad that you are taking my words constructively and I would love to be updated on what happens after you email your professors! Also, please please please even if it's 10% or even 5% of your over...

No you're definitely 100% right. I havent talked to my professors about it, partly because in my culture stuttering is seen as something like whatever u know. But i definitely need to have this talk w...

Please do not misunderstand what I'm about to say next--I'm coming from a good place and I'm only saying this because I really do not want you to go through the same situation ever again. I am not s...

Say exactly that. You want a work place that will value you for who you are- and disclosing is important. It should take some stress off yourself, and clear any questions the interviewer might have if...

Disclosing lines

Disclosing lines Anyone have any good lines they use for disclosing to people? I have an over-the-phone job interview tomorrow, needless to say I’m extremely anxious, but I think that I would feel bet...

This was so me for a very long time. Now, I disclose my stutter and take the time to educate the other person. If the person that I'm talking to is impatient and/or rude, I don't waste my time with...

Tell them right when you walk in that you suffer from a speech disorder. I've noticed people judge you less when you just break the ice about it....

Personally I like it but I'm pretty open with my stammer and it took me a while to get there....

Yep I start off in the interview about my stuttering, like hey heads up, and then I will begin. It also helps when they ask you dumb questions. Because the more questions we have to answer, already te...

I am not fully fluent. Maybe 65 percent. What I did though was during my interview for this job. I laid it all out there, respectfully. Basically saying hey I know I stutter this is who I am, but that...

personally I absolutely hate it when someone finishes my sentences it makes me feel like my input doesn't matter that I'm just an inconvenience and makes me more aware of my stutter which gives me an...

It's rough! People like that, that I don't usually interact with a lot, I don't usually disclose my stutter with. But when stuff like that happens, I kinda wish I did. I wish there was a way to disclo...

I definitely stuttered less on the phone. Sometimes the opening part would get me though. I think it has something to do with feeling more alone. I started paying attention to things like this and n...

Oh my god the dreaded "Hello" or "Are you there!" So for myself, the way I had to deal with it back then was something that tends to be frowned upon I think. I would get locked out entirely as soon ...

There's one thing I wanna mention and that's phone conversations. The end of that video when I talked about suppressing and just not thinking about the stutter the day after, literally not wasting yo...

Great job James, you did a good thing, probably I would be too ashamed to tell her anything during block....
