I can relate to not going to social events because of fear. Stuttering ruined my ability to play high school basketball and football. Like you said, sports is not about talking, but doing that particu...

Thats true cause theyre just being decent coworkers, i feel for most of them it still affects how they viewed me before i was stuttering all the time...

I agree! Report it to HR or your supervisor. That kind of behavior should not be tolerated in the workplace, and hopefully your employer has systems in place to prevent harassment/discrimination (they...

For me personally at my job even last night they'll burst out laughing when I stutter hard we often joke alot about all kinds of categories so I feel like as long as it comes from a place of love it's...

Can’t you make fun of him over something? I am sure he is doing this because he feels inadequate in some way. Push that button. My father didn’t make fun of my stutter but was an a-hole in other ways....

it costs $0 to be a nice person. your insistence on being a dickhead to people who didn't ask for it is about to cost you your privilege to be in this subreddit, though....

I feel stupid now and taken advantage of by society to not have come to the conclusion that I have to repeat myself out of accepted inferiority… At least every power play can be countered though and...

Many of a times it feels that they didn’t understand me so are asking me to repeat. But there is always some bloody m*****ker who enjoys that I stutter. First I use to call it out, reply back then one...

Yeah mate. I had this happen to me a lot. I’ve seen people do this as a power play or a way to humiliate you. If there making fun of you for a stutter, they are pretty pathetic....

I have dealt with people that say they are against racism, sexism and homophobia but have no problem making fun of people with speech impediments, what are other people's thoughts on that, I think it ...

Lolll usually I only get the smirk from close friends who are aware of my stutter and how I feel about it but usual strangers do not...

Yeah but tbh if I were in there shoes I’d prolly do the same thing.. it’s the pressure of trying to not laugh that makes people laugh so I just brush it off...

I think you should read this.

I think you should read this. I watched a movie with a guy that had Tourettes Syndrome, that wanted to be a teacher. True story based on a real person. There is a scene where the young kid with Toure...

Dude you've literally backed up a comment I've put on other posts. I've never said it gave me a leg up. You've gone way off base here I made a point of a distinct instance where it helped me in a situ...

OK, so I’ll take you at face value and say you are a stutterer. Your comment about your stutter helping you? I’ll take that as you trying to make someone else feel better, including yourself. Is that ...

My comments stand. To say a stutter helped someone is nonsense. If it makes someone feel good in the shorter term it will only hurt in the long term. Where will it lead? Stutters need to learn core st...

Do pity on lady who is so insecure that she has to used your stuttering to show her existence As you already mentioned she is a bitch and no one would like her,and she will die alone and her cat w...

Yep. Realize that in some it’s a form of nervous energy being let off. In most it’s just the sign of an a-hole. It’s the reason we create the idea of an afterlife with hell as a form of justice....

Almost every time, I know most people probably don’t mean to be “bad mannered” for lack of a better word, but a lot of people have never met someone who stutters so they usually don’t know how to reac...

In my culture, any different outside the norm is considered a defect and something to be ridiculed over. I feel that I’ve become a selective mute out of the fear of stuttering when talking. The same...
