I disagree with the first sentence. Generalising that it is almost 100% induced by fear of being judged negatively is unfair in my opinion. My speech pattern does not change when I am alone or not, I ...

I would give it to every r/ inceltear user. They bully stutterers and the mentally ill on a daily basis. They haven’t experienced life with a disability, maybe having a stutter will change how they pe...

If you could somehow give your stutter to someone else (who deserves it) and make it THEIR problem would you do it?

For me, once I've stuttered in a conversation and they ask me about it, most of them are very understanding and even supportive of it. There are some douchebags out there that just outright bully you ...

The unfortunate truth is we’re only 1% of the population and the world just doesn’t know what to do with us yet. Until society catches up, how people treat us is entirely up to us for the time being. ...

Love this advice. You’re right; going to HR will always be a hit or miss (most often miss). Far better to fight fire with fire with bullies. No point in trying to teach them to behave better because t...

Reminding him that you have a disability will put him in his place. Being the bigger person by genuinely and honestly explaining, will make him feel guilty, and that's a lot better than cursing him ou...

It's very bad! How could someone make fun of anyone's problem? These people don't have any morality at all. They will never understand how it feels. You should inform HR or any higher authority regard...

He's the problem, not you. You can talk to him or HR all you want but sadly nothing may come of it. Whenever this happened to me, I quit and told HR why on my way out. Only once did I get 2 people fir...

This sounds like a tough situation. But one thing to consider is whether he was doing this to lighten the mood OR to put you down. I don’t think it would be good to take it to HR right off the bat. ...
