I think I was super lucky. Including myself, I had 3 people in my high school class who stuttered. Ironically one of the stutterers made fun of me when I would stutter. Since HS though, I haven’t met...

I'm not saying the stats are wrong, but when I was a kid, I was the only one that I knew who stuttered. Is this counting degrees of the disability and if so, to what degree? As an adult, I've only met...

I understand that blocking for 5 seconds might be a lot for you. It is for some, for others it it not. I have myself blocked in front of many people, during large lectures, presentations etc. in the m...

5 seconds? I am pretty sure that would be "just 5 seconds" for many stutterers. It could be worse :) My record is like 40 seconds. I understand how bad it feels. But it is not a big deal, it is just...
