I think this is very common for many stutterers my stutter goes away when i am alone but if someone is there it is worse, so even though it is bc of anxiety it still is a stutter. Many stutterers hav...

I just acted normally. My stutter normally isn't that bad, and I'm usually at least semi smooth on dates. The anxiety just took control of my body and I lost control of my speech. Maybe the other comm...

Your statement is contradictory. You don't want to be afraid but still perfect? If you strive for fluency then you will always have the fear of not being fluent. Recently a quote has been going aroun...

My view is that maybe she had never been around a PWS. Was probably a bit freaked out a bit internally, and did not know what to do. When I come across a person and a see their facial expressions when...

Interviews are a huge stumbling block for me due to my stuttering/cluttering. I remember when I did a mock interview at a local career center (when I was out of a job due to a layoff), they asked if I...

Thanks. I didn't really expect the stuttering to be an issue since I'd largely gotten it under control. But I did start thinking about it once I realized I was shaking and stuttering 🙁 To be fair ...
