Hello, im a 21 lady and I have a substantial stutter. I actually have a stutter with my own name, so it's extra obvious. Mine actually started as a worse speech impediment and speech therapy helped m...

Really support her, don't be afraid to talk about it and ask her how she's feeling about it, stay on this subreddit (if you're a regular member of reddit), when she's older look into a support group n...

Bro I feel for you. Even though i’m just a kid, I dreaded the day (if it came to it) that I’d have a child that stutters. It breaks me to tears even when i think of it. All i can tell you is that your...

Your approach to the situation is admirable. For what it's worth; I think you are doing all the right things. I'm now 42 and I've been through it all growing up. Bullying, anxiety of speaking in fro...

I feel you. I hate talking on the phone. Some things that helped me: Do it more often. It isn’t fun, but doing it over and over helped me get over the fear and embarrassment. It eventually gets easie...

Hello :) I am 31 years old, but that little girl was once me. I am still outgoing, spunky, social, speak my mind— most of friends describe me as life of the party. My stutter has definitely held me ba...

Im 19 and have stuttered since i can remember. I dont have an answer to your question, but its great to see a parent care enough to take alle the precautions they can. I have grown up myself without a...

This is a very delicate one, but I totally understand your worries. I'm a stutterer since birth, I'm 22 now. Throughout my life, I've never found myself in situations of severe bullying due to my stut...

Yes, I'm afraid that's an all-too-common experience for people who stutter. Sadly, our field of speech-language pathology has provided poor service for people who stutter. Part of the reason that Seth...

Hmm I’m not sure I find it helpful to think about these behaviours as micro-aggressions. Maybe I misunderstand the term but that induces me to think about myself within a certain narrative, as victim,...

It definitely sucks that's for sure. My go to response a while back was "good enough" when people would try to guess what I was saying which seems rude to say looking back....

The one I hate the most is ‘I know what it’s like, I used to stutter when I was a kid but grew out of it’........

Hahaha i love it when I get an advice from some random person like," i would stutter sometime and deep breath would help me" or "oh i know how your feeling just calm down". Like no John u don't stutte...

you may have the opposite perception from what would actually happen if you gave him a shot. people without a stutter actually empathize well and often show favor in the form of understanding and atte...

would it help to talk to other stutters who empathize?...

Thank you man! But only if the other 80% of society shared your beliefs and views 😕 they still don’t fkn get it out there in the real world!...

Many people who joined our discord stuttering support group have come think differently about their stuttering. They feel less lonely and think differently about themselves. I think it is from interac...

Just got told I have a very calming voice by 3 people after stuttering in a work meeting

Just got told I have a very calming voice by 3 people after stuttering in a work meeting I stuttered a bit just now in a work meeting on Adobe connect but the embarrassment I felt by it for erased whe...

I'm just not a fan of comparisons like "hey it could be worse, you could have x". Obviously it could always be worse. That doesn't mean anything. It's an empty phrase....

What do you think those people mean when they say that? Have you talked to anyone about it before, who said that?...
