I'm a woman stutterer. I think my ego partially keeps me going. I want to do well in life. I'm 40 now. Sober and in therapy. Stuttering is something that's always there, like my anxiety. And I just ac...

One must imagine Sisyphus happy I'm 43 now, cancer survivor who has a symbolic 5cm diameter tumour on my thyroid. Removing the cancer and the thyroid didn't fix the stutter. The really seeing the ...

I hear ya, bossman! I know exactly what you're going through, as I went through the same experience. However, I learned that isolation is wonderful, but only in moderation. I consider myself a lone wo...

For one month try not to think about your stutter no matter what

For one month try not to think about your stutter no matter what Don't think about it before, not after, and not during. Think of something else. Just try it, how ever hard it feels. Just force this...

Thank you so much for your kind words. It's a special feeling to realise that we are not alone. Hope you have a great day!...

Lowkey jealous bc my speech does not really allow me to be a covert stutterer. Also thankful that my speech forces me not to be one...

Older adult here - been stuttering really well for 50+ years. I was covert for more than half those years, because I was filled with such shame and fear of rejection. Being covert - in hiding - handc...

hi! i’m 25f and i experienced similar things a couple years back. i think we compare ourselves to others too much so it seems like we’re running behind and out of time but you have so much time! it is...

I’m 20M and struggled with this problem for years. The feeling of finding someone attractive or someone being attracted to you and feeling like you can’t continue a conversation is genuinely the most ...

i used to stutter but I've put myself so much out that I'm average speaker now! only stuttering in tense or nervous situations!!! i think all you have to do is put yourself out, you'll stutter but you...

I feel for you. it is easy to let one bad thing ruin everything and get stuck in a “hopelessness” mindset. You need to do something regularily, maybe start an Apprenticeship or study something at an u...

I’m a covert stutterer (27f) and I regret it. It’s such a habit now and I’ve been doing it for so long I don’t know how to stop. This year I’ve actually made it a goal to allow myself to stutter aroun...

I read your post and I wanted to reach out because so much of what you said resonated with me. I’ve lived with a stutter for two decades now. On a scale of 1 to 10, I usually hover between a 2 and a 5...

Have you tried practicing in any way? My name is also a big problem. It’s not as easy to pronounce even. Before I even avoided saying my name. Like when introducing to each other nobody remembers t...

Same. My social anxiety has lowered because of exposure, I've had so many bad episodes that I don't care as much anymore, not saying that I don't suffer from it but I'm coming to terms with it, that'...

One must imagine Sisyphus happy. Seek the meaning in those words for yourself. In my 43 years it is the only philosophy that has truly helped me. You have an audience of one, you. I say own it, ...

Male here who stutters. They’ve already probably put you on some kind of pedestal being that you’re attractive, so as others have said, I’d suggest being open about your stutter from the get go becaus...

Hahah thank you so much! 🫶🏽 Also, I read your post about acceptance on the sub a couple days ago and it really hit home <3...

One foot in front of the other. One day at a time. I skipped/avoided a ton of things in my younger years. Have I done everything I wish I had? no - but I have made some great gains. You're still in...

Thought that would've been separate, probably why I wasn't getting the answer I was looking for searching for on Google. Didnt think of it as anxiety...
