I agree with others and think you should present. You want to think fondly on you experience that you persevered! A few people will make fun of you. I am 53 and adult still make fun of me. Some pe...

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. I think your mom has a point. The more you put yourself out there, the easier it becomes. When things get easier, you begin to try new things, and the o...

I posted this the other day on this sub, I hope this gives you a little perspective. I’ve been there, I hated everything about high school and college thanks to my stutter. Slowly, it just got better...

What this person said. I’m 31 and can say it gets better. Your stutter doesn’t define you. Just makes it hard to talk sometimes. Remember you’re not afraid of stuttering, you’re afraid of what people ...

Like you said, this is your first time. Those always hurt and leave scars. Unfortunately, only time can heal this. And in order to end this “first-time” pain, people get various thoughts, such as suic...

If you’re thinking about hurting yourself or someone else, please reach out to the new “988” number. You can text the number - you don’t have to call and speak. In any case, try to be kind to yourself...

Firstly, if you’re suicidal you should talk to somebody, anybody. It could be your parents, friends, teachers, counselors, and therapists. Mental health is no joke. I think you should stop thinking w...

100% agree with u/Muttly2001 and u/ShutupPussy Commit to doing it. Shut down the negative thoughts and anxiety. Refusing to speak is the worst choice....

All people here sugarcoating it, but in reality stutter is of course massive disadvantage. We might die alone even if we try really hard. There is not much solace for us. I guess focusing on what we...

I think it's better to go through with it. It might be very embarrassing and suck but you will survive and that is worth something. There will be future situations where you can't escape the need to s...

Just be confident. Everyone has flaws. If you're going with that mindset they will sniff it out and you'll be undatable lol...

Nope. Instead I had a great college experience due to being involved in co curricular activities which involved public speaking. I am yet to increase my confidence and seek speech therapy, but I'll ge...

I think it is possible. But it’s nothing to worry about. You will be fine. But if you do speak with the people that don’t stutter and listen to them a lot, it should be...

I'd say it's a good sign, but these things between women and men are already a bit complicated. I'd say you slowly start "putting yourself out there". Just say "hey, I'm kinda interested in you..." lo...

I saw lately a beautiful young woman with selective mutism. Maybe she also thinks that she will die alone. I ´ve a man with celebrar palsy who can barely speak and walk and he is married to a healthy ...

✋🏾 I don’t stutter, but the love of my life does. You are enough. Be bold and confident. She’s out there somewhere waiting for you. Go get her!...

Find your tricks and stuff. We prove them wrong all the time. Gotta get some confidence, it’s sexier than you think....

I'm a stuttering, sweaty, formerly obese nerd married to an SLP. If you go to the next National Stuttering Association conferences, you will see plenty of guys who stutter ... along with their spouses...

I did not. I got my BS I. Health information management and a masters in criminal justice and another masters in health informatics. Don’t let stuttering hold you back and don’t let it stop you from p...
