Fear about Work

Fear about Work Hi! I'm 16, and Ive never had a job, but in a month I'm going into Work Experience at this cafe, and I'm so nervous, because my stutter gets really bad in social situations. Does anyon...

So I have a middle name and for some reason that’s easier to say than my first name so I just say that and eventually they will learn my real name...

Pretty much everything you stated is 180 degrees incorrect. It may be a language barrier or some kind or fear of admitting the need to let others hear your repetitions. There’s also no such thing as...

I also do the combination of both if I feel I am gonna stutter a word in a certain language 🤣🤣🤣...

I hate stuttering

I hate stuttering Need advice from people who also stutter, how the hell do yall talk in conversations and not get embarrassed when you stutter. I usually stay quite and to myself even tho I’m not tha...

You’re absolutely right, sorry I didn’t acknowledge that part. There are people who will be fucked up and say things. However I have never encountered those people in my adult life. When my wife and I...

Haha! It happened to me many times when I think about it now. I instinctively show my phone, even my watch, as I tell them the time. I've never stuttered so bad, so it seemed normal but incase I stu...

I edited it for clarification. Also, read my post explaining it in more detail. But ultimately, before I allowed others to hear my repetitions, I did tons of hiding and had literally written my res...

I was coming from university and an old man gave me a piece of paper and asked me to read for him. And I just said I don't how to read and left, 🤣...

I try to hide and actually that is the real problem. Stuttering is not the problem. The problem is I try to avoid situations amd opportunities that demand talking and talking well...

Interview

Interview Feeling like I bombed an interview today- just couldn’t get the words out. But hopefully my resume will speak for itself 🙏🏻 ...

Stutter specifically when switching languages. Can anyone relate?

Stutter specifically when switching languages. Can anyone relate? Heya! So, I come from a dual language household in Ontario Canada. My father is english and my mother is french-canadian. I was raised...

Hope this works :)

Hope this works :) Recently I found this interesting technique about reducing stutter. If you bounce every syllable like a ball, going up and down, it helps reduce the stutter, at least for me. I woul...

I joke I am still trying to get my first word out, and I taking a break from it by saying other words instead....

This is the answer, OP. Efforts to avoid stuttering will begin to fail…...

Do you allow yourself to stutter or try to hide it?

Do you allow yourself to stutter or try to hide it? I always go ‘human-thesaurus-mode’ and try to skip around the words I actually want to say (often leading to me saying things in weird ways I think)...

Maybe an unpopular opinion but this is just selfish… I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assumed you made the decision in a millisecond out of panic....
