Hey, In my opinion there is no benefit in pin pointing the original cause of your stutter. Knowing what caused it won’t cure it, unfortunately. I don’t know your grandad and I don’t agree with his beh...

This happens all the time! I can hardly remember a time when I actually ordered what I really wanted, lol....

As long as the job doesn't require you to give presentations or speak with customers on the phone, it really shouldn't be an issue. My recommendation is just give a heads-up in advance to the recruite...

Lol been there so many times. At least you enjoyed ur food! :) This is why I am extremely grateful for food delivery apps. You just select the items and the specifics without having to speak at all th...

“Funny” thing happened this evening

“Funny” thing happened this evening I attended a Diwali celebration with few of my drone pilot friends. We were doing a photoshoot for the event. After that I was craving Indian food. So I called a ...

So far I've learnt 4 techniques: 1.prolonging the first syllable of each word. 2.breaking a word into pieces 3. "Voluntary stuttering" (personally this didn't work at all) 4. Do not force a word to c...

Hey, when I was your age I would not even consider applying for jobs like that out of fear, you are definitely in the right direction my friend. In the past years I have realized that the only way out...

Hmm.. this is a tough one since I struggled with thoughts like this too, especially for jobs that I know are require a lot of talking. Thinking that the job will leave you emotionally burned out and p...

I changed departments at my job in june. I knew a few people from the other department but the rest of them I didn't. The look of shock in people's first reaction is always the same then it goes on to...

My best advice is apply and just be transparent about it. Years ago I had a temp job answering phones. I didn't last the day. There are plenty of other ways to get experience/earn money than with doin...

Over Analyzing

Over Analyzing Hey everyone, I’ve caught myself thinking about my stammer A LOT. Everything I say a sentence I try to sound as fluent as I can and when I don’t I tend to repeat the words I get stuck o...

I suffer from all 3. Usually not all at the same time. I’ll have days or weeks with pretty good fluidity and then bam. I start blocking. I end up changing the word I want to use if I feel a block comi...

I'd imagine it could vary by person though. I don't have a stutter, but will sometimes stop mid sentence and forget how to form the rest of the words, and struggle with word retrieval a lot. It annoys...

If you’re close enough finishing the sentences won’t hurt much but it’s not ideal. My wife is patient with me. Nerves definitely make it worse...
