Thank you so much understanding and being considerate about it. But you’re right it’s not a wuss thing it just usually never happens, no one I talk to points out my stutter like that so I haven’t gott...

It doesn’t make you a wuss to be upset, stuff like that hurts. Smart move getting out of there though, I would’ve probably done the same thing...

She apologized but not in person I left the house after to go hangout with friends. I just needed to get away from that environment I kept getting teary eyed not to sound like a wuss....

I hope she apologized to you. Whether she meant it maliciously or not, she shouldn’t have done that to you...

No yeah for sure I doubt she meant to say that in a jokingly way she just wanted to see what I was saying. Just at that moment I just wanted nothing to do with her like that really hurt me. But you’re...

Trust me in my head I felt so disrespected. I’m not sure if we can curse in this thread so i’m going to keep it clean. But I just wanted to tell her to get the heck out of my house if you're gonna tel...

Yes they all know that’s why I left the room because it was quiet. I didn’t see my dads face i was turned the other way but my sisters boyfriend said he looked bothered when she told me that. And then...

Being a PWS in the Workplace and How to Self-Advocate

Being a PWS in the Workplace and How to Self-Advocate Long time lurker, first time poster. This is piggybacking on the post asking the community if their stutter was used against them in a professio...

That sucks, there's nothing a stranger can say to bother me, but it's incredibly easy if it comes from a loved one....

The worst comment I’ve had is that someone thought I was on drugs when I told them my name. They were asking what I took, if I’m okay, I told them I’m not on anything and they laughed and walked away...

Tw: beatings I'll use a throwaway. Got bullied at primary school from age 7-12. It started because I had a stutter. Teachers didn't react but they knew. We had 1 teacher per year (September to the ...

Got in front of the class to do a presentation, couldn't say anything else after the first sentence. I just told the professor I wasn't ready and went back to my seat. I was so embarrassed....

I'm glad you find that comforting. I think it depends on the sort of look. Like sometimes they can look impatient or god forbid bored. Maybe confused, which I suppose is understandable. I'm not alwa...

When stuttering, I normally look away - down at the floor or off into space. It means so much when I look back at the person and see that they're still engaged with me. So often they'll have decided ...
