Food for thought: 1) Stuttering can go into remission and people who once stuttered are better for the time bring. 2) Some kids who were severe, hit puberty and their speech got better into adulthood...

Still not a good sign if it's nervous laughter, because it's laughter it still looks like mocking. I know she's explained it not though, but op it depends entirely on how you feel...

Salute to your courage sir. Many of us here including me got fear of public speaking. Also one thing I would like to share with you sir is whenever you stutter just breathe. Have a great day 🙂...

Kinda depends how bad you have it. If the stamina is mild, there is a chance you can manage it well. Most people with stutters tend to be introverted and analyse every social situation. Confidence is...

Not true. Confidence is key. Even if you have to fake it. She needs to feel safe and protected with you....

I sometimes get told when people react or even giggle when I stutter that they are either reacting to getting caught off guard, think that I'm trying to be funny, or don't know its an issue and they d...

Being named Donal and not Joseph which was the original plan, and my middle name, had a fairly dramatic impact on my life as to this day I'm absolutely terrified of ever meeting someone new. The str...

The benefit/cost ratio of seeing if you’d be strengthened or hurt isn’t worth the possible opportunity for your emotional growth. Stay away. You don’t need this gamble....

I wouldn’t count on a positive outcome regardless. Her laugh response isn’t connected to empathy and it’s not specific towards any particular situation. Maybe seeing a blind person using his cane woul...

Stay Away. The very mentioning shows her lack of self control as well as causing you discomfort by even bringing it to your attention. TOTAL disregard for you. She might have other issues with empathy...

Hypnosis

Hypnosis Has anyone tried hypnosis therapy to help with their stutter/block? I stuttered as a kid but grew out of it. After a traumatic experience in my adulthood, my stutter is back. I have been to t...

Those are all helpful suggestions in general but OP is describing a very specific thing - having a fear response around speaking, and engaging in frequent word switching and avoidance in order to not ...

I'm very guilty of this, but I would've explained it like that instead of directly it solely at OP's stutter. "Hey, just a heads up, but I sometimes laugh when nervous or awkward. I'm really sorry i...

I would've stopped the conversation there and ended our chats. I get it's not even the first date yet, but I don't want someone LAUGHING at me, esp in public. First, it's embarrassing for YOU. Seco...

I dont normalize ppl laughing at me, i just dont get hurt and overly defensive when they do especially if its the first times were speaking....

That seems very fishy and I guess she means that she laughs at wrong things at the wrong time, and she's aware of that (as if you were holding in a laugh at a meme on Instagram Reels in school). If sh...

Online language learning

Online language learning Hello! I’m thinking about starting to have lessons to improve my English. I found some platforms like Cambly and Italki. My problem is that when I speak English I stutter A L...

I would be put off by her message, much as you. You should let her explain herself, she could just have that type of personality to laugh when she is nervous. It that is true, warning you beforehand i...

I think youre just a butthurt insecure guy if that offends you. Stuttering is made fun of in the film industry so its easy for ppl to laugh at it. Telling you in advance only shows she cares about you...

I'm having an especially hard time with my stutter right now too. It's so frustrating and isolating. It's hard to connect with people or just do the things you need to do. A lot of people take fluency...
