Lonely

Lonely I’m 25 and I don’t know anyone else who stutters and, most days I just wish I had someone who gets it. No one knows how exhausted I am some times just trying to speak and get through the day. N...

I mean same, I always choose latte or raf since it's the words easier to say without a risk of putting myself into an embarrassing situation. I get to drink my favorite coffee only when I'm with someo...

Reddits like the first place I get to "talk" to strangers without anxiety or them noticing I stutter.

Reddits like the first place I get to "talk" to strangers without anxiety or them noticing I stutter. Its fun being able to comment on stuff without worrying about blocking. Thats all....

That happens to me and it's always Mr. or Mrs. that sometimes it just come out without a stutter and then I see they notice I didn't stutter and my brain is like "oops...we should block the next word....

Yeah that's unfortunately common. Personally identifying info triggers stuttering in a lot of people. Picking up prescriptions at the pharmacy can be a bit of a chore for me, since I have to confirm m...

Back to the office today and I can’t even speak my mind and my stutter is mild nowadays but the fear of stuttering one a singular word because I’m trying to speak perfect. So stress and anxiety induci...

He probably tries harder to hide it at school. It blew mind when a teacher told my mom that he didn't even know I stuttered....

Does your boss already know your stutter? I disclosed my stutter to my line manager so she wouldn't misinterpret this as me being nervous or scared all the time when it's just a thing about me. She di...

They might be covert at school, but more comfortable to express themselves and risk stuttering at home....

This is sort of how it was for me. I suspect he’s nervous about other kids being mean, but feels accepted by his family at home....

Haha I used to swear A LOT I'm pretty curious on what you're doing to improve the self consciousness about it.. hows that journey been going?...

Yeah, I did that a lot in my younger days. Eventually I began to work out before speaking if I really wanted to speak, if what I wanted to say was really worth the hassle, or even if anyone was inter...

Am I doing right thing by not speaking in team huddle? Hi, I have been in my job (WFH) for last 6 month and my job doesn't require much talking with any one (occasionally with manager). And whenever t...

This is one of the things that sucks the most. Simple speaking tasks that to regular speakers have no idea how frustrating it can be. We always know exactly what we want. But sometimes just doesn’t so...

At Starbucks, I get my order out however my name is a whole other story. I give a different name, and when my order is ready, they are calling the fake name I gave them whilst I'm on my phone totall...
