Hey, I too am a stutterer, and have too had trouble being open with my family about the way I speak. At the end of the day, as horrid as it sounds, we will never be able to completely stop stuttering...

How did the guys in your club react towards your stutter? Did you try to hide it, or did you just outright admitted that you stutter?...

Did you say anything about your stutter? Did they ask about it?...

If the interview goes badly and you are stuttering too much, I suggest that you tell them you stutter. I would rather they know about your stuttering otherwise you might get labeled as a having "bad c...

If they reject you, then they weren't the company for you anyway. Then don't tell them. But if you don't tell them and you stutter, then they may not understand what you're doing - especially on ...

I mean, there's no hard rule for these things. If it makes you feel better doing it in advance, you could do it. Or if you stutter during, you could explain it. Or you could not, and if they ask about...

Would this mean they would reject me, though? It actually may make me stutter more if I tell them, too...

I usually start with "just to let you know, sometimes when I am nervous, I stutter" -especially if I am having a bad stutter day. That's always worked for me. At least they'll give you time to ge...

I tell them in the phone interview? Or when I pass that? Like do I tell them that it's an illness?...

Throw in some voluntary stuttering and let them know you stutter. It’s OK to stutter. Be skilled, be strong, be confident. You got this....

I think the thing that messes me up the most is the blocks. I actually do try to talk to people from time to time, since it's a loud warehouse a lot of times they have trouble hearing me. The blocks a...

Glad to hear you're engaging on at least a friendly manner, sorry for jumping the gun on that. I don't think I have social anxiety so I don't know exactly what it feels like for you, but one thing tha...

I found it easier explaining I'm a stutterer at the beginning and that it's the reason i may speak slowly or stutter. You probably won't stutter less, but you will be much more clam as the other side ...

I appreciate the honest feedback. I say hello to a lot of my co-workers as well. The issue isn't about being friendly, I always say hello..it's about actually engaging in a conversation that i'm lost ...

I was in your situation just recently, and I'm sure I'll be in your situation again once I graduate uni, and at every new job afterwards. I did a one year internship in a professional environment, and...

My therapists (two of them) told me to never label yourself as "the stutterer" because doing so lessens the chances of you not stuttering. I've had many interviews and meetibg where i don't stutter fo...

You can get great relief telling somebody off the bat that you stutter. That is, of course, when there's no denying it and it's easy to tell. However, there's no obligation to tell people straight awa...

Only if you're comfortable doing so or if they ask. In more serious setting like an interview or meeting it's better to disclose because then the audience isn't wondering what's happening and you're...

Acknowledge upfront ....1000%. The audience will know what is happening (if they didn't already) and the elephant in the room will be gone. Less pressure off your shoulders to "hide"it....

Like any other social situation, depends on the context. In casual settings, I usually just roll with it and don't acknowledge it more than I have to. If I meet someone in a social setting and they gi...
