Fellow stutterers, what do you do when someone makes a joke of your stutter?

Fellow stutterers, what do you do when someone makes a joke of your stutter? I am 19F, had a stutter all my life. After 19 years of age, I still don’t know what to say when I stutter and someone repea...

Just my experience but I overthink everything and make up scenarios that will probably never happen. I can end up in a downwards spirals and maybe picture my wedding day and wonder if I will be able t...

I agree with cicadas\_stammering! Circumlocution is an omnipresent thing. The thought before every sentence, every word I say: Can I say it that way? Will I stutter this? How can I replace it to prev...

Here,again. Hello guys! I think i am posting here very often, but this really feels place where you all know what i am talking about and seems like you get me. I am feeling so down, i dont remember ...

This happened to me when I was 15. I stuttered and all of a sudden I had this deep fear of it and did everything possible to hide it. There are a lot of theories about the causes of stuttering so we ...

A huge part in any stutterers life is the "fakeness". Almost nobody knows a stutterers true personality. Generally shy,avoidant and fake smiling(or even fake rude) a lot because we are begging nobody ...

I definitely relate, specially on how stuttering has had an infinitely bigger impact on my negative feelings and fucked up self esteem. Then again, I do see being gay as an incredibly rewarding experi...

I joined... sales... Hey everyone, I’m new to this subreddit but I’m glad I found it. You can’t really help but feel like you’re the only one that stutters and it’s nice seeing other people who feel m...

That is amazing feedback, thank you. I really want to learn and feel uncomfortable during this, becuase it would only be a fraction of what people have to go through on a day-to-day basis....

Thank you so much! I want to be able to convey this as genuinely as possible, so I appreciate your feedback....

Thank you for your honest reply. As a black man, I could not really think of any other analogy, and I am terrified of offending someone who cannot chose when or when not to stutter. I will make sure t...

Akin to blackface? Yeah not at all. It is a learning tool. Put yourself in those shoes. See how it feels. Any professor worth their salt will have you do this! Decide how you want to pseudostutt...
