Hey! I remeber in 7th grade I was called on to read a paragraph out of our history text book. Couldn’t make it through the second sentence. That caused the teacher to email my mom and suggest I be put...

I know how it feels I really do. Just try to be the better person and try to forgive them. They just don't know how it is to live with a stutter. Remember, there are people just like you who are going...

Whole class laughed at me today.

Whole class laughed at me today. I stuttered a bit when the teacher asked me a question, and then some people from my class started mocking me. The teacher laughed at me too, nearly the whole class ac...

I'm sorry about your fall out. The truth is your sister doesn't know anything about stuttering and jumping to learn and work on a bunch of techniques likely isn't going to help. It'll more likely make...

I'm really sorry to hear that your sister reacted in such a way. I can understand why you may feel like that one interaction halted any progress you've made. I do agree with what someone said below, t...

It was so bad once upon a time that in alevels I could not even think of the word "stutter". I felt so much shame in just thinking about the word. So I feel that this is growth, that now I can tell ...

Your sister should show you patience. It kind of feels like you’re not getting the support you need. Personally, for me, my stutter is a source of shame for me. I don’t know about you, but I feel like...

I am so hurt. Today my sister told me that I was not doing enough with my stutter. That I didn't want to get better. I feel so crushed.

I am so hurt. Today my sister told me that I was not doing enough with my stutter. That I didn't want to get better. I feel so crushed. I was trying to say "polio", a word that contains the dreaded "p...

I have been in similar situations too. My stutter began when I was a 13 year old and I also remember that we were reading in our English language class. I was somehow able to read through the paragrap...

Hey, thanks for the post. I kinda need it today. Today my self-esteem took a hit. I have a job that i don't care if i stutter or not because i now my value and im confident, but im also ending my mas...

After 30 years I don’t really care that much if it’s just a small laugh, it’s when they make a judgment that I must be under the influence of drugs. My friend and I walked into a bar one time, I strug...

It was indeed a very difficult situation.I got upset because of it throughout my entire teenage but I always held onto hope thinking that stutter isn't what drives me and I kept moving forward in my l...

Fair enough, I’ve been lucky I think and have received minimal negative attention due to my stutter (either that or I’ve blocked out a lot haha)...

I don't like it. I've been laughed at too many times in a malicious way to be OK with any form of it....
