The importance of mindset and confidence

The importance of mindset and confidence I’d say I have a moderate stutter , some days it can go either way. But one thing I’ve realized is being conscious about how you’re feeling and thinking is pre...

People choose to deal with it differently just because I hate talking on the phone doesn't mean I let it run my life. Nothing wrong with it....

I hate when I see posts on here about people playing into the stutter. Submitting to it. Making it okay to avoid speaking....

Being open about stuttering was a huge turning point for me. I went to this two week intensive course at AIS in NYC where part of the program involved us interviewing our family and friends about my s...

Talking with an 'Accent'

Talking with an 'Accent' I stutter pretty often. One thing that I feel doesn't help, is a I'm a very talkative person. I love conversations and learning about people. I'm a huge people person. I've be...

This so much. The more you try to hide it, the more it shows. The only thing I found helpful was to accept my stutter, make peace with it instead of fighting it. Yes I stutter. There are good and bad ...

I love noticing it in that show. I hear a lot that we tend to see our stutter as more invasive than it actually is and this show is a steady reminder of that. The stutter flows perfectly fine even tho...

16f Yess you hit the nail on the head. I can't stand my stutter but I'd also feel lost without it. It really is hard accepting it but I'm trying to do the same....

I’ve used this method my entire life and it works very well. I gave a speech in a political rhetoric class a year ago and I could barely get out the first sentence. I had to start over after about 3 a...

Magic made me realize other people don't care as much as you do

Magic made me realize other people don't care as much as you do Hello everyone, 23m here who has (like many of you) been stuttering for as long as I remember. I have only just found out about this sub...

I made peace with my stutter when I realized that speech therapy wasn’t working about 6 years ago. It’s strange, when you have a flaw, you try to reject it. You deny it, hide it, and just refuse to ac...

I know this exact feeling. At times, speaking in a different language poses unique challenges to stutterers. As we all know, it’s mostly about confidence in oneself. Plus (for me anyway) the urge to s...

>What does everyone else think about this? Would you rather it stated clearly and for a discussion to take place about stuttering or would you like to see it just accepted and for no comment to be ...

I generally dislike the phrase “did I fucking stutter?” because it equates stuttering with uncertainty. It has made it hard to be taken seriously on occasion...

*face palm* lol. This is true. At that time I was completely fluent for like, the better of three months or so. So he’d never heard me stutter/didn’t know I have a stutter. Was a weird situation to hi...

I cant show my real personality

I cant show my real personality At social gathering I am often the weird guy who is just listening. But in my mind I have so many good/funny additions to conversations but the struggle with some words...

I love everything about what you said. And yikes, I’ve honestly never thought that I could be coming off as cold. I’m literally the most bubbly person ever once I’m comfortable. Definitely bubbly via ...

Hmm I’ve never done that. Not on a date at least. But I guess it would take away all the anxiety focused on what they will think of me. Who knows! Let’s see what happens haha...

I'm not trying to be a douche tho. The silent laugh just comes out. I feel like shit afterward cause I realize that we both have something in common and that I should help him out or something. Let hi...
