I am working on making a dataset on people who stammer.

I am working on making a dataset on people who stammer. I would want people to come forward and help in making the first of its kind dataset on Indians who stammer. Its normal to stammer, we need to ...

There’s a difference between stuttering in front of a large group of people in college and in the workplace. The former is full of idiots. What can you do. The latter is a professional environment whe...

I definitely think stutters (me included) notice it so much more. Many people I have met and hung out with for a while have said they didn’t notice until I told them. I have a radio show/podcast and...

Well to be honest I don’t think I’ve ever hold anyone’s stutter against them, and think it’s pretty immature for anyone to do that. For the record, I like him because he’s a truly kind and sincere per...

Couldn’t disagree more. Disclosing that you (candidate) have a stutter/speech impediment during or before a job interview (what this post is about) opens the ability for the interviewer/company to d...

Don't give up your dreams. You will regret it! People are fucking idiots. Don't be an idiot with them. It's your life not theirs....

I have it my personal profile section right at the top. I literally just point blank say I have a stammer and then explain how it helps me in both my personal and professional life, I feel that it ma...

No, and to be honest I don't think I ever will. And I'm ok with that. Ever since I was a kid, and still now as an adult, I was told that I had to become fluent or I wouldn't be successful. Whenever I...

Then you have more reasons to go doing it :) What would it take for you to be able to speak together ? It's no interview, no formal thing, just two human beings having a casual conversation, which, by...

Bro, I wish I could give you a hug. I’m 35, going on 30yrs now of being a covert. My advice would be one, fuck everyone else, do you be you. Second, it’s okay to be fucked up and kinda broken, more pe...

I suffer from the same thing. There are days where I want to rip my tongue out of my mouth and take a vow of silence FOREVER. However, we should think about our condition with a different perspective:...

Why is this true for so many of is??? It doesn’t matter if consonants or vowels are your main issue - YOUR damn name will start with whatever is the hardest for you....

Been stuttering since I was 5 something, was shy, bullied in school, was invisible to girls in college as someone put it down in the comments, still hate phone calls and interviews, even talking to my...

I feel like I am out going as well, I like to join in conversations with people who can actually talk,.but I'll say it's tough at times. I've found that now I'm older it seems easier and people are mo...

When I was in high school, I really wanted to achieve fluency. I watched videos, joined theatre, and just tried my best to do so. Now I’m in my mid 20s. I don’t really care if I stutter, because I kn...

I didn’t have a stutter so to speak but I had OCD so bad I would repeat words out loud until they sounded right to me. With an uncanny amount of will power for a kid I taught myself to say them over a...

Negative self talk won't help you. I'm 43 and I have served in the Army and retired from it. I served over 21 years as a first responder including being a cop all with a stutter. You have to want to b...

Been there all my life and I'm almost 43. Granted as a child I was 50x worse than now. I was told growing up I couldn't do what I wanted. I served over 15 years in the Army most as a NCO. I served ove...

This is what I’ve went through, I feel so dumb now since I never use to pay attention in class, could also be due to my ADHD but others also have ADHD and they’re striving in life and seem intellectua...

Always, I am who I am. I find a lot of the time I’m the first person people have met who has a stutter so it helps them understand. And also weeds out the jerks right away ....
