The more comfortable you are about it, the more comfortable they will be. If you're not in a good mental space to be comfortable right now, making a joke about it is the quickest way I've found to bre...

For me, my mental space has a much greater impact on my speech than the mechanics of how I actually try to speak. Things like getting enough sleep, eating right and exercising have a positive impact o...

that probably could be the reason. but I just thought the kid would understand better if its parent or sm1 it's close to would explain. Instead of expecting sm1 to step in for me, I guess it's better ...

Folks I just wanna let you know that...

Folks I just wanna let you know that... your stutter shouldn’t define you as a person and you should love yourself for who the universe made you! We’re all in a club, a super cool, compassionate, open...

I should try talking to them directly. I was hoping that sm1 would step in at the time. no one did. I should do it myself. and thank you!...

One day at a job forum, I met a recruiter and she adviced me to never tell to recuiters that I stutter, because I need to be confident, my stutter will not impact my job, people will just need to wai...

Some people think that people who stutter are dumb, but don't let that discourage you from talking, please!

Some people think that people who stutter are dumb, but don't let that discourage you from talking, please! That is the worst and I feel like that is the reason why many people are not so open about i...

30-year-old here. I've felt the same way. Sometimes, I still feel that way. As difficult as it sounds, at some point you just gotta say fuck it and start enjoying your life. Try to make life easier fo...

I'm late replying to some of these comments but just wanted to say thanks, and I find your advice helpful. It is easy to fall into an "all or nothing" mentality. Many of us grew up imagining that one ...

I really take similarity with your point about falling into old patterns. I think as people who stammer - we want to be fluent instantly 0-100 style. I would advise taking things (as in goals, eg. wor...

It's easier to be open about stuttering when the surroundings are good and decent about it. But not all people are like that. We should focus on those that are, though. It's important to pay attention...

Bottom line, if you want to be a teacher, be a teacher. Don’t let stuttering hold you back or else it’ll haunt you for the rest of your life. I’m an SLP in the schools and I feel like it’s been the b...

I'm not a teacher, but I do have a lot of experience with teaching large groups of people. Just like with anything else, the key is that you just need to be okay with yourself. You'll have good days...

It's been a journey for me. I'm 34 now and yeah, I still have the days that suck. I worked out that tiredness and ill-preparation is the biggest factor to me having bad days of not being able to spe...
