i think you are masking your problems with the fact that you stutter aswell, you talk as if stuttering caused all these issues i mean think about it, if stuttering really caused all that wont every...

as an introvert, i’m quite reserved and i tend not to mention/talk about private stuff (feelings, stuttering etc.) to others. but he (my friend) was the ‘click’ that made me feel comfortable in talkin...

Opened up to a friend recently

Opened up to a friend recently Some context here: I (16, M) joined my school’s overseas study tour, and on the first night, we did self introductions (the part I vehemently disliked). Obviously, I ...

I often feel like that too. We aren't a fluent talker and don't accept ourselves being bad. We're just stuck in the middle always making a joke out of ourselves...

A better way to word it would be the way you deal with your stuttering is affecting how others see you. There are ways to stop being a hidden stutterer and become more open. Do you have speech therapy...

Yea i know this feeling, it's like you want other people to see how you really are but you are afraid of stutt and you just try to avoid talking, so you look like a quiet boring person...that sucks...

I can relate. The fact that my family have always refused to talk about it while I grew up didn't help either... And everybody else discovered but no one talked about it with me, it felt like the elep...

I’ve thought about the reason behind the block is some kind of social anxiety but if it is it must be some Freudian unconscious thing because I’ve never had social anxiety, I am a social extrovert an...

My 2 cents: I'm 48, been stuttering since age 5. I have a BS in Psychology, MA in Industrial/Organizational Psychology and I'm a National Trainer. I went from 0% fluency to 85% fluency. I am ha...

Some days i forget that i stutter and then it suddenly dissappears until i remember it again. when i m alone in my room talking to myself i dont stammer. Also when playing sports or playing videogam...

I wish if we can have these organisations in UAE. You're right in my case it's all about playing a role, obviously I can't talk with my friends and family the same way I talk with my clients 😅...

That could be true, in Sales you need to talk in a different way and control the conversation. This is not me at all I learned it by the experience. Definitely I can't talk with friends and family in ...

Funny coincidence that this is the first post I ever read on this subreddit as I’m also 31 years old and I also stutter. (But I’ll be 32 next month though 😉.) Same for me. I do stutter at work but m...

I'm also 31 who stutters and no professional. But it could be that you stutter to those that you show your true self to. Your friends not laughing at you could mean that they respect you and unders...

No! I'm 31 and trust me it gets better. I hated my stutter my whole life and still to this day I get upset but I promise you it isnt as big of a deal that you think it is. I wish I would have reali...

I must agree, this is my first comment on reddit, I made it just for my stuttering family because we're all one. Not going to lie, i scammed through your story bro and I agree. I wanted to say that fr...

After reading your story it made me realize how many things I’ve been doing in the past years that has been effecting my speech in a negative way. I replace words that I know I’m not going to stutter ...

Ah alright. I'm polyglot and linguist (I didn't go to college/university for it and don't want to as it's unnecessary) and was curious. It's very strange for me because I know that I know more words t...

You are on the right track. The way to stop being nervous is to talk more, stop worrying about stuttering, stop hiding, and accepting yourself as a stutterer. Find a support group. Volunteer, find peo...

yea. i guess i’m old enough to know i’m not just gonna grow out of my stutter. so i gotta embrace that stuff now!!!...
