You'll find that it's the people who make you stutter because you're not fully comfortable around them. I don't really stutter around my close friends and family anymore, might get a knee perk here an...

I’m nearing 30… and my stuttering (and other speech impediments) have ruined my life.

I’m nearing 30… and my stuttering (and other speech impediments) have ruined my life. Keep in mind that the terms stutter and speech impediment are part of a larger range and spectrum and some people ...

It took me like 3 mos. before I got comfortable enough with my team that I wasn't tripping over myself speaking. It will absolutely get better with time + building your confidence. And, realistically...

First Nursing Shift Tomorrow!

You’re better off somewhere else. Software developers communicate mostly through email. Who the fuck cares that you stutter....

I had a similar issue… HR was straight up condescending in the interview process (and that was after my initial disclosure and preamble that I always do in an interview). It was bizarre interview all ...

That’s total nonesense! I’ve been working as a software dev for 10 years and I can assure you it doesn’t matter if you stutter at all. If you speak with clients it might not be the best fit, but oth...

I stutter like a motherfucker in all my work meetings but I persist, because regardless of our disability, we have just as much of a right to present as anyone else....

I think that makes sense. English is also not my native language. It was weird - at some point I felt like I stuttered less in English, but the a few years later I feel it’s the opposite. I think it...

I completely understand where you're coming from. Facing stressful meetings can really amplify anxiety, especially when you're dealing with a stutter. It's tough to feel like you’re on display, and it...

I agree it's matter of mindset. If you keep thinking about it you are just overthinking all the ways it could go wrong. For me what seems to work is that I just don't care about 99% of the people who ...

Last month I presented online in front of 200+ people. I was asked to cover for my manager in an all-hands meeting in front of the entire company. I had a choice. I could have easily said that I don...

Meetings used to stress me out too in a similar way to what you’re describing when I was younger (I’m 38, so it’s not like I’m old lol). I’d be worried that I’d embarrass myself or people wouldn’t tak...

It gives me an easy answer when they ask what my greatest weakness is. Just interviewed for a job a couple of weeks ago and got it despite stuttering my way through. Good luck with your job search!...
