No one will notice it and it's still better than stuttering....

entourage Hello Do people around you know that you stutter? I don’t think that my classmates or friends know it, because when I am somewhere where there are many people I preffer to stay quiet. But...

In meetings this is the worst. Any time I speak up, immediately everybody busies themselves aligning their papers, inspecting their tea mug, admiring the wallpaper, etc. I find it rather amusing in a...

Embarrassing others is the worst part :/

Embarrassing others is the worst part :/ Without fail, every time I have to pick up the phone, my co-workers will find a reason to leave the room and if they can't, they VERY clearly try to busy thems...

What's your twitch so I can watch? Like Noodle-Fella said it's going to happen, don't be embarrassed when it does. Don't give up and the audience will barely notice it, if not completely disregard it....

I'm anxious about my stutter when I stream on Twitch

I'm anxious about my stutter when I stream on Twitch So, recently I started streaming, I have no problem with the streaming itself but everytime I notice that I stutter my brain just instantly goes "O...

Are you entitled? Hell no. In fact, I'd argue that most, if not all, of the things you mentioned are doing more harm than good in the long run. These sound like avoidance techniques which generally l...

Told my coworkers :)

Told my coworkers :) It was awkward, not even gonna lie. But I feel a huge weight off of my chest. From their reaction, I’m 100% sure that they already knew, but the fact that I’m no longer feeling an...

Definitely second. I stutter always, it not depends on anxiety or anything else. I stutter when I'm alone, when talking to myself, talking to my pets, etc. Anxiety makes my speech worse, yes, but it's...

Depending on what the phone call is for (such as tech support), it helps to know the person on the other side will never see my face or if they do it might just be for a short time (such as for a rest...

about the link — I'm also the author of the piece. I've stuttered my entire life. It was severe when I was younger and mild these days. Most people don't notice I stutter, but certain situations make ...

I went into a career in logistics and am now making more money than a lot of the other people in my company because my performance doesn’t rely on my voice all that much. I know a lot of advice with s...

RANT Ok I’m sorry if I come across negative, having one them days. Anyone here feel that they get paid less then others in their jobs compared to other coworkers even though you work harder than them...

100%. That's my go-to when I have a block show up. I had my therapist ask me about it once. When I told him why he was surprised because he never knew I even had a stutter. It's obviously noticable...

I do this all the time when I’m on video calls. You are right, it helps to block things and let you focus. You are not alone...

I do the same thing. It’s something I’m trying to work on but it’s been difficult because its just such an instinct to look away when I stutter...

For me it's opposite. I have blocks when ever I break eye contact or rather I should say I break eye contact when ever I suffer blocks....

No, I don’t. My speech therapist analysed that I had a habit of constantly looking away whilst talking which really increased my stuttering, but when I maintained good eye contact, the blocks reduced ...

We break eye contact bc we feel embarrassed and ashamed. One of the first steps to confronting your stuttering head on is maintaining eye contact no matter what. It’s hard to do but work on it and it ...
