Any people working in tech?

Any people working in tech? I'm trying to land my first role as a Software Engineer. I feel like my moderate-to-severe stuttering has been holding me back in interviews. Are there any Software Enginee...

Yes correct, our unhelpful habit is to turn off our triggers which, as we know, results in 'trying' (to operate the feedforward system) which will only enable us to pay more attention to sensory feedb...

I suggest to not turn off the habitual response of anticipating stuttering and strong emotions. Because avoiding/hiding these intrusive thoughts/feelings is counter-productive towards learning and hab...

literally me !!! i’ve only told a teacher once ab it in hs bc she always had us reading aloud but she said i had to face my fears and continued calling on me 😐 now i’m in college though and thankfull...

My confidence decides if i stutter less or more or don't at all.....

My confidence decides if i stutter less or more or don't at all..... I talk clearly with my close friends and family..... But i cannot speak a sentence without stuttering when speaking to strangers......

I'm a vegetarian so I ask for food without meat. They get it wrong like 20 percent of the time. The effort of getting it corrected and trying to explain it to a person is just not worth the stammering...

i feel u, but hoenstly dont know what to say. i struggle with this curse everyday. you know, everytime im about to speak i think "hey, do i even stutter? its gone now" or something, and well, its just...

Ofcourse it does. Imagine being in a position of confidence when meeting new people, while doing what you enjoy and focusing on that, instead of only having insecure thoughts about what others will th...

Agreeableness

Agreeableness Does your stutter compel you to be more agreeable? I find myself mostly letting go or ignoring cos of the struggle of just putting my point across. Often times I'm like why not save myse...

Does you stutter compel you to be more agreeable? All that effort and struggle to simply make your point.. why not let go or ignore?

I would like to chat with you. I think it's important to share these feelings, but don't let them consume you. I'm sure you're an amazing person with many redeeming qualities, you are just maybe in a...

Sorry but .....

Sorry but ..... Yall saying to do whatever you want to do even if you have a stutter is good but that won't fix anything especially socially. Having a stutter is a major disadvantage and detriment w...

Yes, but I force myself to maintain eye contact. It makes me feel like I have more control of my interactions and has definitely helped my stutter...

I do. Whenever I stutter, I look away from the person I'm speaking with. It sucks, but like most things, it's something you have to get better at....

Don't the secondary characteristics come from trying to avoid/hide stuttering?...

Yes.. every time I stutter I look away from the person I'm speaking to. I also avoid eye contact pretty often. I think it's because of my low self esteem and anxiety as well....

Thanks a lot :) And yes its definitely something I am more mindful of, and I try and look at me people continuously while I stutter...

Is it me or is the secondary characteristics of stuttering even worse than the stutter itself?

Is it me or is the secondary characteristics of stuttering even worse than the stutter itself? Our eyes darting away/going to the back of our head Our lips moving like they have a mind of their own ...

Yeah, that's pretty much the same for me. I never really talk about my stutter with my friends. Even strangers I am forced to speak to (like waiters), they seem to understand pretty much (even if ther...

Honestly man.. forget about hiding it and thinking of hacks. Just talk how you are able to talk and ignore the haters!...
