I believe the most powerful work you can do ever, phones calls or not (when it comes to stuttering) isn't trying to be better at something, but rather to find out why you aren't natural in that enviro...

Im 38, I've stuttered most of my life well for as long as I can remember. I just always pushed through it. But if it wasn't for my stuttering I think I'd be a Dr. The truth is most people are acceptin...

Whilst the fight or flight responses were almost identical, I feel like I experienced both separately. So I didnt notice any correlation between PA improvement and speech improvement. I was (and sti...

Seems like your stutter is tied to your anxiety like mine. The best thing for me was just exposure therapy and anxiety management. I just don't avoid any of those situations that I find hard because ...

I had the same realization recently, but it didn’t help me as much. I’d like to think I’m very successful for a 21 year old and I have stuttered my whole life. Despite my stutter never really getting ...

I wasn't bullied to bad about my stutter in school. I did have some bullying in school but not really about the stutter. The main problems were my parents doing the same shit as everyone else's. The u...

WOW - this really really resonated with me. Thank you for sharing and being so open. I had not experienced performance anxiety until my first proper long term relationship ended in my mid-20's. Ther...

Hi, I moved in Germany in 2018 and started to learn German myself 3 Months before that in Internet. Try it too, you can surely manage A1/A2 on your own, then it will be a little easier. It will be ha...

Don’t you think that disclosing the stutter eases anxiety, breaks the ice, and positions OP for a better smoother riding interview rather than doing it all covertly? Depending what OP would be doing...

Yes.. however, it depends on a lot of things. Your age, what you've tried and the history etc. I applied at age 32.5, I got the normal rejection, did the appeal, Social security set me up with an ...

I’m exactly the same, I’ve always been worse with my family, yet at work or I’m meeting someone for the first time I manage much better. My theory is that word substitution and creative management to ...

Same. For me, pressure actually helps with my stuttering, e.g. meetings and networking; so when I’m around friends, more comfortable, I tend to stutter....

Try not to catastrophize and project. Have confidence in your abilities. It should be able to shine through in your interviews....

First of all congrats! Sounds exciting in a lot of ways. As far as the stutter, I have some experience stuttering in front of those that don't speak English. I took Japanese in high school, and we ha...

>I know that it is not healthy. Damn right it's not healthy. Making alcohol part of a daily routine is a an extremely bad idea. Alcohol will likely have diminishing returns with regards to you...

I would use this workaround very sparingly. Of course, it's easier to do at events where alcohol is expected to be consumed (gamedays, parties, etc.) but it's a fine line to tread if you're giving a c...

hey 16 M here. when i finished middle school (i was 13 then) i had to move to France and go to school there ofc. i was nervous just like you because i didn't know the language and i didn't know if i'd...

I would go and see a health professional or a chemist or something, if you can speak normally when with just one person or in a familiar group then I think it’s something you may be able to work on wi...

They know about my stuttering and are very accommodating. They've allowed me to write my messages in meetings instead of talking. But face to face will be different. Also it's not just about work. I...

Can you disclose your stuttering to them before moving? I’ve found a lot of tension realized as soon as I go into difficult situations where I expect to stutter like interviews or meeting new people. ...
