I can see how people think it's cute. Not for the person stuttering of course....

Many years ago, I accepted the fact I would most likely stutter until the day I die. I no longer care if people laugh at me, because I think I maxed out of the hurt that could cause me in junior high....

Someone called my stutter cute and I’m not sure what to think about it It’s held me back in everything I’ve done in life, *but it’s cute*...

Your first comment sounded like you made it do easy and simple, severe stutterers have really hard time doing all the things you mentioned, stuttering and it's effects and thier environment is differe...

Sucky situation #48: Family or friend game night that involves reading or speaking Last year I lied to 5 work friends at a Friends-giving. They decided to play a game after dinner that involved readin...

It’s so good to see someone speaking some genuine from-the-heart truth up in this bitch. Stuttering fucking blows. It’s undeniable. I don’t want to come across like some kind of asshole here, but t...

This has really been my experience. People blatantly avoid speaking to me. No one approaches me for conversation, when I say something they deflect the conversation onto someone else, when I speak th...

Wow, that's unbelievable, especially for an adult. I make kind of weird faces when I stutter too and people often think they're funny or dumb looking. If I hadn't been too shocked I probably would hav...

The way to get past speech blocks is by letting yourself stutter. You start working on this my making the sound you're afraid to make and therefore block on. You can only start this work on the easies...

I had an incident a couple years ago which i still remember like it happened yesterday. I met a guy in my first month of university and he asked me a question. I got stuck on a noun that took me over ...

Yeah, I think the comment was well meant and it's great when someone feels that way, it just sort of belittles the problem to make it sound that simple to overcome. I've tried putting myself out there...

My speech therapist tries to get me to do this. It’s a lot of work. It’s not necessarily just saying to yourself “it’s okay you’re too anxious” “or calm down it’s okay”…it’s more getting yourself to F...

I just don't get it, because it should be obvious we aren't doing it on purpose or to be funny. Seriously, I struggle so much sometimes I can't breathe and get so physically tense. I wish I had some...

I've been told that as well - low confidence is not the reason, it's the result. Result of realising it's often better not to talk....

First time posting on Reddit, first time even trying to talk about/explain my stutter.

First time posting on Reddit, first time even trying to talk about/explain my stutter. My stutter runs within my family, my grandma from my dads side has a minor stutter and a few of my cousins also h...

I went to the grocery store today and didn’t buy avocados because I couldn’t find them and I was too much of a little bitch to try to speak. Feel free to use that riveting daily situation in your stor...
