I would recommend looking into speech therapy clinics near you, and if there aren't, there are speech pathologists who can do video calls (I started doing this with my therapist during covid and it wa...

Should I focus on self-acceptance or speech improvement?

Should I focus on self-acceptance or speech improvement? I know these two goals aren't mutually exclusive — ideally, I’d work on both at the same time. But right now, it doesn’t feel feasible. I’d rea...

Is it possible to be social even with a stutter?

Is it possible to be social even with a stutter? Hi, I'm not used to writing long texts. But I have a few questions that are on my mind: 1.Can someone who stutters be social? I don't like to be an i...

Well everyone else around here talks perfectly and charmingly so no way I’ll find anyone else like me, but awesome you had someone who could relate to you and help you get over it...

Stand up for yourself and then leave. You deserve better. People who enjoy mocking others are not friends. Please please please take care of yourself: you’re already dealing with your stutter, you don...

Ik I'm 23 old even I don't know sometimes with right time & right people everything fall into place , people actually understand but later they become stranger too, I'm too tired of it...

Same age, same type of stutter. It sucks. I've got no confidence either, though Im getting there slowly. I guess ive just accepted that its a part of me and nothing is going to change that. While I've...

I’ve been doing BJJ for about 4 years. You get more comfortable to talk with the few people you like and the coach. As long as the vibe is good (most gyms are) you don’t need to worry about talking a ...

Honestly tell them for the last time that its not ok. If they keep doing it just find new friends and slowly cut them off from your life....

Trust me, having no friends is better than this. I found some friends at a stuttering self-help group. Does your town also have one ? This might be a good place to start ! If you want to make an eff...

Sounds like they're just awful people, lacking in any sort of robust character. Ditch them. You don't need them. Join clubs, societies, sports, or even simply a stuttering support group to make new...

Get new friends. I have plenty of people in my life who don't mock it and are patient. I'd rather be lonely than have friends who hate me for something I can't control....

I know how you feel, but these don’t sound like great friends. Is there anyone in that group who you might be able to talk to individually and express your frustration and hurt? Someone that you can t...

Get new friends, simple as that. I'm fortunate to have great friends who won't cross that line as it's the only thing I'm insecure about. Find people that will respect you...

that group is done. no amount of right combination of words can change their toxic attitude. the whole world is a place where you can practice acquiring friends over and over, sometimes getting rejec...

those are not friends, you would only lose people who make fun of you instead of listening like genuinely being lonely alone is so much better than being lonely because of how your friend group trea...

If they are mocking you, then let it roll and give them an abusive earful. And if you have to eat it by having no friends, then break whatever bars are imprisoning you and force yourself to make new f...

I had friends like this. It would have been better if I hadn't!! You would be ok if you read and study and pursue hobbies until you find better friends. Don't invest in people like that. ...

What kind of hobbies and interests are you into? That’s a great place to start. You have to go places where you like to hang out. It’s not hard to make friends as long as you put forth the time and ef...

i mean i was always isolated kinda, i don't need it in worst case but it's still nice to have tho....
