My stutter has gotten better! (update)

My stutter has gotten better! (update) So, I'm going to college this year (freshman) and my stutter has gotten better. I have been able to order at at restaurant or coffee shop with mostly little to n...

Well, do remember, that was one person. Not everyone is like that. I would not be like that. (I do not stutter.) Though, I feel it's generally better to let them know ahead of time in the situatio...

Literally the only time I feel 100% comfortable stuttering is when I'm telling someone I stutter so they see what I deal with. If it's a bad one just go with the flow. By the time you get the point ac...

I even did this at my work orientation. I was 24 and crying in the bathroom because I couldn't stand the thought of saying my name in front of 6 other people.. I honestly felt worse than I would have ...

I always waited until we set a date to meet up. If I'm comfortable enough to actually meet you in person I'm comfortable enough to tell you. I always phrase it as more of a heads up, like yeah first...

Seems like you are really resisting stuttering in front of people, causing you to block badly on words. Have your tried voluntary stuttering? Disclosing that you stutter? My life got so much easier wh...

Explain your situation. When I joined my work, I explained them my vocal behavior and asked them to ask me again if they didn't understand something I spoke. I may not be doing the best but with whate...

My best advice is to let them know you have a stutter. It can be embarrassing stuttering in front of a manager or a superior, but unfortunately at most jobs (especially corporate) you cannot get away ...

Yeah, honestly that's the way to go. I rarely have people say things, but if they do then I just think honesty is the best policy. After I tell them that I stutter that's always ended it. They're usua...

I have started to do that recently. It makes them back off...kind of? They just kind of laugh to themselves afterwards, mostly. Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate them. ...

I hadn't even thought about calling the article's author. That's a really good idea. I used to just sort of uncomfortably laugh, but after speaking with HR last time and not hearing anything back, I...

Just say you stutter, get it out there so you dont have to be scared about it....

Its so weird because when i go to tell someone i have a stutter, I DONT STUTTER WHEN I SAY THAT. Its so ironic lol....

Have you ever told them that you stutter? Be upfront about it, if they make fun of you fuck them, we're only alive for a short time, don't be worried about ignorant dickheads making fun of something t...

I always make a joke before someone else can. Sometimes people don't realize you truly have a stutter and crack a joke. That's when the weird I really do have a stutter conversation happens. Normally,...

Do or you don't, that's fine. But when it actually comes time to meet be upfront about it when you're having a block. At that point it either won't matter or it probably wasn't going to go anywhere ei...

I've started trying that myself. Owning up to it has gone a long way to helping through those blocks. ...

Usually I bring it up early in a conversation if I see the other person doesn't understand what's going on, or whatever. Sometimes I'll work it in as a joke, or sometimes I'll be more serious about it...

Being upfront about your stutter

Being upfront about your stutter So I just started university recently and my stutter is at its worst right now, mostly due to stress and anxiety and all that. But I've recently been trying out annou...

I wouldn't hesitate to indicate that you stutter on your profile. I get that people can be at many different levels of severity with their stutter, but I don't think I would ever equate it to being as...
