I have a PhD in physics and I stutter. There are two other senior professors where I work who also stutter. You learn to deal with it. People don’t mind as much as you think they do. Hang in the...

Nop I try to make myself forget my stuttering and i think talking to other stutterers would cause the oposite...

Thanks man. It was excruciatingly awkward initially, but helped me overcome the embarrassment of speaking to strangers. Would definitely recommend it....

Pretty much overcame my stutter by doing something similar. Got a job as a barman in my early twenties, whereby I had to communicate constantly. These days most people don’t believe me when I tell th...

I am talking with a professional. Personally, I think communication is what separates men (and people in general) and I've found that the best communicators rise to the top while lesser communicator...

Honestly don’t know what to say, you should just talk with a friend or a professional. In regards to male social hierarchies, mentality is what separates men. I’m 24, struggled with extreme stutteri...

Martin, I am so sorry you are going through that and all I can add is that I was in your shoes. My school life from grade 1 to 12 was literally hell. This is my 2 cents: I practice mindful meditat...

damn i could relate to this hard. i'm 19, a year older than you, and my stutter seems to hold me down as well. I don't like participating in my classes at all due to the fear of me stuttering and gett...

I used to think this way, I'm moderate to severe overt and I figured people could figure it out themselves. It's honestly shocking how many people don't. It's sitiational for me. Casual interactions...

I would say just working on my self-esteem and positive reinforcement from other people. I also went to therapy for a while where I talked about my feelings about stuttering, shame, social anxiety e...

Currently work for an energy company. I found it scary as fuck at first and nearly quit but that motivated me to do well. I find ways around my speech, and even after nearly 6 years I still have hiccu...

Do it! And the sooner in the conversation/meeting, the better. When I was younger I found myself always being afraid (and by afraid I mean often terrified) of what Other People would think about me if...

This was one of my "scariest" challenges I've ever done. (Ps. This was pre-c0v1d) Funny enough, it was one of the most pivotal challenges I've done that helped me in my speech journey. Holding th...

I'm a teacher and I stutter. I'm in my 3rd year teaching and about 2 years ago, started speech therapy and letting myself stutter more openly but I still hide it too. For interview advice, do what'...

I block more myself; I’m sure 37 and have stuttered my whole life but have only recently been able to properly admit it to myself and get some help. My advice is to try and be open and speak about it ...

The root of your anxiety seems to be focused on hiding your stutter. If you don’t have to hide it, it will relieve your anxiety! I think being up front about it will be beneficial for you...

The problem is that you can't hide it forever. If we could hide it, I'd be hiding it... lol It's just best to be upfront with it. The more comfortable you are with her knowing that you have the affli...

Well, here's my story. Maybe this will help you. I've stuttered my whole life, yet only a handful of people knew because I hid it very well. I'd change words, play dumb, use swear words instead of ...

Same actually! Do you know why that is for you? I think that for me, I was laughed at for having a stutter so I trained myself to not stutter in public....

I never disclose it so I don’t know if that would play against me. Also I’m not into software development but more like network/ infrastructure and security...
