I believe personally as a stutterer, it's not that we aren't accepted by society, it's just people see us in a different way. I have had many friends who never mind and would treat me as a normal pers...

I love feeling like a normal person

I love feeling like a normal person So I spent most of my life without any real friends and the one close friend I did have doesn’t even live nearby. I’ve stuttered since I was a kid and have always d...

People have no idea how hard it is. They’re don’t know that they little things that they do stick with us for days, weeks, months, or even years. Don’t let others stupidity keep you from living your l...

You need to find someone to talk to. Just get those feelings off your chest. I have the same problem too with my speech being shitty and getting mad at the world for being this way. It helps me when I...

Thinking of creating a support group/info page for my local community

Thinking of creating a support group/info page for my local community So, I've stuttered since childhood, aprox. since 9-10 years old (I'm 25 now), felt mostly alone in this because I know very few pe...

I'm so glad. You got this, seriously. DM me if you are ever having a bad day and need to talk it out with someone who will understand. It can help a ton!...

I knew someone in highschool on my soccer team and it was amazing because it was the one time I wasn't afraid to speak at all. I swear we both would get almost giddy talking to each other because we p...

Sadly no one understands how hard it is for us just to tell others what we know / capable of. Poor handling by that HR. You can report him by sending an email to that company. Atleast they ought to kn...

This is where persistence pays off. Just keep interviewing until you find a company you like that will hire you. This company was unprofessional and it sounds like it might not be a good place to wo...

Sounds like an utter asshole with uptight ignorance. You're better off moving on! Why work for a company who clearly isn't willing to be patient and able to value you more than just your stutter alone...

This! After months of speech therapy with a great speech therapist, I've disclosed my stutter to so many people this year alone than I would've done a year ago. It helps to take some pressure off my s...

We have become excellent listeners not by choice. But it’s one of our best traits and people like that. Stuttering doesn’t define you as a person it’s just how you talk. You think clear thoughts and...

Oh I get you, I'm always wondering if I perceive the other the correct way. Maybe their expression is an effort to show empathy as " it's ok I don't care". We can only assume but I would try to see ...

To be honest I did feel embarassed, yeah. But now it only makes me glad to know I'm not the only one. I've met stutterers throughout my life, but I've never been friends with one. Fluent people don't ...

For me, this is not a great question. Stuttering has not taught me anything positive. It was a real struggle and I had to learn to cope with it, and it's now better than it was, due mostly to age, I...
