Personally , I don’t agree w someone trying to “get you out of your comfort zone” I think that’s something you have to work up to. plenty of times I’ve been forced out of my comfort zone and have had ...

I don't think there's going to be an easy way out, and you should try to accept that and face it head on. In my experience putting more effort into trying to force words out only makes the problem wo...

Is there any way I could unfreeze in public. It feels like my heart just stops and no words come out and I’m putting so much effort into trying to force the words to come out but at the point I just e...

Hey, I have been right where you are right now. I had the exact same thought process when I was 19 years old, just constantly putting limitations on myself and stopping myself from trying things. I us...

That makes perfect, coherent sense. I believe that is true for myself. One only has control over their reactions and emotions, truly, it’s the only control you have in life. We still don’t understand ...

Bro I has the same thing for the longest time, up until last year when I started a consulting job and also started college. Then, it stayed in full force and I had to face it. It’s hard with a boomera...

Yea man. Its tough and it sucks a lot sometimes. You can feel so trapped and how you want the ground to just swallow you up sometimes. I've been there and it hurts. But let's look at what you CAN do...

No, at the end of the day you make the decision to not go meet friends, go to parties, or push yourself in uncomfortable situation. That’s what it’s about- retraining your brain, and how exactly do yo...

I know mate but it is hindering me in many things in life in society in social environment in everything, Thank you for your words!...

When you don't treat the underlying problem (insecurity/breathing/etc) and try to hide it away you will only find coping mechanisms instead of treating the underlying problem which would actually help...

it's not that i'm afraid, sometimes I just can never even get the word out I have strong self-confidence but it is useless is like to go to the water to swim with your hands tied and your feet tied, s...

i can not sir my stuttering is an disability for me...

yeah now it is the 8th month, but it is not helping me at all even though my speech therapist knows where the problem is and gives me everything I need but no effect so far, it just got worse even mor...

Encouragement and patience are key. Stutterers are like icebergs, they only communicate a fraction of what they are thinking and feeling, and it is easy to forget the person behind the struggle. ...

When I look at back my childhood I now see I never spoke to anybody because I was embarrassed of my stutter. I was never bullied bad but I was just to embarrassed to even say a word to people. Because...

Like 2 years, I felt so frustrated because, before I thought to be "normal" (but I was always shy), and I was very conscious about it, i tried so hard to avoid it, to "plan in my head in advance" what...

Eh, I still have some hope that it will get better and I'm a pretty fast typist, so no. I would probably give up to 5 years off my life expectancy for it though....

same, i just want to get better but i feel like all the speech therapy in the world won't help me at this point, idk what's wrong with me...

Yep, fucking sucks. I am so jealous of people who are eloquent. I feel like I’m fairly smart but i can’t convey it because of my shutter....
