I’m sorry that this happened to you. Despite this clearly being a discriminatory act on the employers part, maybe in the future you could let them know that you have a stutter via email and are more c...

Most people don’t understand stuttering and people will discriminate against us because of it, which is wrong I know but it happens. I know it’s a hard place to be in, but don’t let it hang over you. ...

Sorry this happened to you man for a future reference state that you have a stutter before hand or request for an in person interview. I’ve had weird encounters myself during phone interviews but when...

I dont see why not. For my interview, I first disclosed and then proceeded with the interview. Show them your passion and personality, that surpasses the stutter and gets you in the door. Good lu...

I'm now 27 years old and have lived my whole life with a stutter. It was at it's worst when I was in middle and high school. It's not so bad anymore. You do get used to it or learn tricks to cope with...

You know. When I tell people about how I have to sometimes change my sentences because I feel a stutter to a word coming or that I can’t say certain words they always ask me to say it for them. Mofo...

I was in New York buying shoes with my dad. He was off looking at the men's section and had just been helped by the sales associate, so he sent her to me in case I wanted to try anything on. We talked...

No, you are not too incompetent for life. You are F***ing AWESOME and don't you think otherwise. Take it from a 48 year old who had to fight for everything. I'm 48, been stuttering since age 5....

I think linking would help you. Basically, what linking is, is blending the end of one word into the beginning of the next. Keep your voice "on" until you need to pause or take a breath. If your name ...

I don't think you should let stuttering get in the way of continuing med school and becoming a doctor. I would recommend speech therapy, but I don't think you need to take a year off school for that. ...

^ I couldn't agree more. I can empathize with exactly how you feel OP, but I promise you are far from incompetent. Stuttering can be a hurdle sometimes, but it's almost never a wall and the world is b...

You're the prude!! Jk. I'm the opposite of you, my stutter is usually decently severe, especially on first dates and I can't hide it. I always disclose. I have it on my dating profile that I stutter ...

Unfortunately not, but getting my friends to introduce me helps a lot and makes me way more comfortable around new people. I hate the idea that the first impression people have of me is a chronic and...

I think this is a good opportunity to be less covert and present yourself more up front....

The other day I was on a date and stuttering on my order and waitress started going "uhhh..." and chuckling, not knowing what was going on. I knew she wasn't trying to be rude, just a bit ignorant or ...

Hey, I also studied comp sci. I actually landed a job on my first ever interview, I got quite lucky and they let me answer the questions by typing. Then on the in person interview I wrote everything ...

I would be exactly the same. It can be very hard to brush off. I once stuttered on a sobriety check, was worried they thought I was drunk so I told him I had a stutter, he said he didn't even notice (...

So much this!!!! I was literally thinking about this last week and regretting all the ice breaker introductions that I didnt JUST SAY I HAD A STUTTER/STAMMER. Do it OP! And then say a nice factoid abo...

When I was in college I avoided everything and now I wish I hadn’t. Say “I have a speech problem please be patient” and then relax and introduce yourself. You’re worth meeting. You’re an overcomer. An...

Embarrasment is your own state of mind. You stutter,... so what... I do to. When you are in the situation that you are stuttering in a conversation and you are feeling that the situation is becoming ...
