There are treatments but unfortunately no cure. And the treatments vary according to the individual. I wish I could have accepted my stutter better when I was younger, instead of avoidance, frustra...

Sometimes the worst part, is you THINK you DON’T stutter, but you look the video and feel so ashamed about yourself...

I feel you. Honestly, most of the time I make the jokes about myself to hide my miserable insecurity about my stutter. It’s my defense mechanism I guess. It makes me feel like nobody can offend me or ...

me when I wake up, feel pretty, but then I remember that I stutter 😕...

I’ve been in a similar place! When I was a teenager I used to pray I’d wake up mute or I told myself I’d become a monk who doesn’t speak. Your relationship with your speech *can* change very slowly ov...

Yeah, especially when you're trying to socialize or you're trying to ask for something you need but can't say it. and it's embarrassing when you're just sitting there with your mouth open like a freak...

I stuttered very hard on the first day of highschool while introducing myself, got really depressed over it, as the year went on people talked to me and made friends with me, nobody really cares at th...

in my adolescence it was a constant volley of laughs so I have grown resentful of anyone that reminds me of those times, irrespective of their intentions. I would much prefer someone to just shut the...

I Hate This

I Hate This Ok so I've been stuttering for almost as long as I can remember when I was 5 and people made fun of me, at first I didn't care about who said what and made fun of me but now I'm very humil...

Be honest. if you have questions for him, ask. Try not to be overly helpful. If you wouldn't interrupt or finish someone else's sentences, don't do that for / to him. But be yourself. Sounds like t...

I’m finally starting speech therapy! What to expect ?

I’m finally starting speech therapy! What to expect ? I’m a 29 year old female who has a slight stammer from time to time . However I don’t think many people notice. When it comes to my name that seem...

Exactly, after a certain period of making weird faces and making everyone uncomfortable, i just start regretting why i ever started this sentence. I jump at the first chance of getting out of it. Some...

I can definitely empathize and relate to your frustration 100%. I’m not gonna give u the same old script about how to supposedly fix your situation because sometimes I feel like I’ve tried everything ...

Maybe 10 seconds but it feels like a lifetime and to see someone’s face change and look at you differently ruins my entire day...

How does one achieve this mindset? Like not being hard on yourself when you do stutter? I've been trying meditation and to allow myself to accept whatever happens but I still find myself beating mysel...

This attitude is most likely going to only hurt you by make your blocks worse. It’s only evil toward yourself. How do you actually know they felt bad for laughing about your stutter? They could hav...

I used to go to therapy years back. Maybe when I was 6 or 7 and I don't think it necessarily helped? It made me more aware that I was "different" in a way. And throughout school. I never had many frie...

That's interesting, I've no idea how I would react to seeing someone who stutters, as I find it so embarrassing I would automatically think that person does to, so I prob would avoid them, how...

I gave up a while back. Even today I still cannot talk to my father without stumbling across words and looking like an embarrassment to him. But stay strong don't give up like I did...

Don’t give up man. Do your best to put yourself into uncomfortable situations as much as you can. Force yourself to talk to people on a daily basis and confront the shame. Stuttering is hard, you cons...
