Just got my first internship offer!

Just got my first internship offer! As the title suggests, I got my first internship offer as a transportation engineer despite having a mild to severe stutter. I've had imposter syndrome almost every...

I try even though everyone I know *knows* I have one. It's just instinct at this point. I can't help it....

I heard that. I didn't really see at stuttering. It's probably because I'm used to hearing a different type of stutter...

Really? Listen to the first minute. I say “shop-shop-shopping’s fun-fun for like the first five-five minutes but a-after that it’s boring” Besides that I honestly didn’t stutter a lot tho...

I genuinely couldn't hear you stutter. I just assumed you used "filler words" most of the time......

It took a few minutes but and sometimes it’s hard to keep it up. It’s really hard to explain but instead of pausing and holding a throat block, I would force myself to repeat the word until I could sa...

I’m a cashier and stutter, I wanted to post how most transactions go. Here was one from earlier today!

Man that last line hit hard. I feel like I’m at the age where I’m a “man” and not a “boy”. Being insecure and scared for what I was given isn’t gonna help me any. If I act weird and scared because of ...

Reading aloud helped me to create a new, almost stutter-free identity. When you hear fluency from your lips many hours a day, your self-image will slowly change....

Thank you! The tricky thing is allowing myself to stutter fully around coworkers and not try to hide it. Someone at my work made fun of my stutter while I was trying to hide it so with him still here ...

I’m finally accepting my stutter and it feels amazing!

I’m finally accepting my stutter and it feels amazing! It’s gonna take some time to truly get this down. When I’m around like coworkers I still try to hide it as idk how weird it’ll be to randomly hav...

Congratulations!!! You've taken the first step in owning it by acknowledging that it doesn't define you. I didn't have my epiphany until I was 28 and I'm still learning how to "own it" everyday 13 yea...

I need to re-accept mine It’s weird because I’ve had a stutter as long as I could remember but I never worried about it. I just accepted I was a stutterer and didn’t care how I sounded to other peopl...

Yeah I noticed that. I make tiktoks sometimes and I hardly ever stutter when I do. Also when I stutter I look away from the person, I’m trying to fix that too...

Talking in the mirror helped me a lot. Look yourself in the eye and talk. The more you’re used to speaking to someone in the face, the better your speech will get. Most stutterers don’t stutter when t...

I wonder how many people identify their stammering as mostly if not all covert or interiorised?...

Hi! I used to stutter a lot more but I’ve gotten a little better. Only really stutter when I feel I have to prove myself to someone. Before I talk, I take a deep breath, be happy that I’m talking to t...

I’ve never found a way to not stutter. Instead I’d recommend going into it with the mindset that you will stutter and that it’s okay if you do. I like to preface speeches by telling my audience that ...

It is true that how you perceive yourself will impact how people see you - because you act out according to what goes on inside. I believe that changing how you act out can change what goes on inside....

For me(many years) never gone, but got much better controlling it by substituting easy words that fit, without hesitation. It took many years of practice. Unless absolutely necessary, like being asked...
