Its going to be hard. I read some people comment that you have to live with it, but really you dont, you can kill yourself whenever you like, i dont recommend it tho, but then again, there is always ...

my parents are quite ableist and think ppl with disabilities or mental disorders are doing it for attention, and i think they would think im faking. I mask way harder at home because theres more conse...

Just wanted to start by saying you’re doing the right thing by getting her help. I’ve had a stammer since I could talk, the one thing I wish that my parents had told me growing up is that it’s okay to...

Agreed. Never want her to feel ashamed or that she is doing something wrong. It’s honestly more difficult to teach other family and friends about it so they don’t react in a way to make her feel that ...

Thank you. I think it’s more the fear of doing something wrong that will have life long effects. We are taking it slow. But you are right, normalize too make her comfortable with herself....

100% this. I developed so much shame surrounding my stutter that I am still working on it today. OP, if you can, speak to the people at the American Institute of Stuttering - they will be able to poin...

It might seem like not being able to properly tell jokes isn't that bad, but in reality it takes away a lot of potential. The way people look at you waiting for the joke, only for it to end up not be...

I got thick skin for everything, except once it comes to stuttering. Roast me all you want I'll genuinely laugh, but mock the stuttering and it stings. Maybe cause there quite a bit of trauma associat...

I couldn't see that happening. Like the longer you stutter, the more you realise it's an issue and it's less funny I guess...

how do you look at your stutter as not a bad thing? whenever i talk or think about my stutter all i can think of is the negative experiences...

This is one of the most humiliating things to say to a person that stutters. :( it always puts me down...

My stutter holds back every aspect of my life. You're totally valid in feeling that way, and you are not alone. Take things slow and celebrate the small victories :)...

a rant about my stutter

a rant about my stutter hey guys, this is just a little rant about my speech so feel free to ignore this lol. i hate my stutter with a burning passion. i let my stutter hold me back WAY too much. i’v...

i do the exact same, it’s frustrating but i can’t exactly do anything about it so i try not to think about it much. But at times it can really get me down but i know i’m not the only one who deals wit...

I know how that feels. As a fellow stutterer, I've been hit many times with the "did you forget you name" and then the laugh and I will admit it hurt. Many times if not always the people don't know th...

I wrote a song about my stuttering.

I wrote a song about my stuttering. Hey guys, my name is Ori and I'm a stutter from birth. A few years ago I asked my best friend what does she feel when she talks and she replied, "A constant stream ...

Thank you so much, I will try this. Also I saw some of your old posts about your stuttering and I know it has impacted your life so much and I am sorry about that. It has for me too, and I am only a t...

I worked on acceptance for a very long time before I truly accepted my stutter... over 10 years. As you are well aware we grow up and negative thinking patterns are ingrained in us and very hard to r...

I can totally relate to this. I'm in the exact same position as you. I've always been self critical even though others have always accepted me from my experiences. Its just so mentally draining trying...

I believe this is so true. I've been speaking fluently for a fortnight, however today I went to a baby sensory class where i was to meet many new mums and dads for the first time. As soon as I had to ...
