This is why sometimes I order online. Give them a name I can pronounce (I stutter on my name ALL THE TIME), or I just spell out my name if I forgot to change it....

I fumbled throughout was some blockage but It wasn’t as bad, my nerves kinda settled a minute in. I volunteered to go first to just get it out the way. Afterwards I felt relief and wishing that I coul...

I experience this as well especially with words beginning with vowels. You stammer on specific words because you always have a bad experience while pronouncing those words. You have to create good exp...

I just found out this is what it's called. I HATE phone calls. There's the awkward silence and then they start talking when you finally get the word out and now you have to repeat it. It's a whole wor...

I am a physics PhD student. I present scientific studies at conferences and internal meetings consistently. You’ve got to get used to the weird looks and others being uncomfortable. I would say the bi...

I've done the exact opposite I've avoiding stuttering I absolutely do not push thru blocks. This has greatly improved my fluency over the past year. But yes I agree you shouldn't feel ashamed because ...

Sorry about that. During my training school for my first job as a banker, we were given a research and presentation to do. We were 5 in my group. I basically did the bulk of the research and did the s...

Menu How many of us have ordered something they really didn’t want because it was easier to say than what we really wanted. I wanted a buffalo chicken sandwich but I knew I was gonna have a real hard...

I self taught myself programming and then took online gigs only communicating via email or Skype messaging. I was doing alright but we had a kid so I looked for a more reliable job. Got a role as a pr...

UPDATE: Well, my teacher did answer my email and I disclosed it with her but I got no response lmao. My tutor supposedly was going to email her too, I don't know if she did, but knowing her she wouldn...

It sucks some technical words can't be swapped out you do have to stutter through it. Police officers can't swap out words in the Miranda rights and lawyers have to use specific words. I use to stutt...

For me, just adopt my strength (more patient and focus on my thing) and avoid the drawback (stutter when talk to strangers or people with inconsistent value). The backend position in tech company or b...

Hey man. I had a horrible stutter in school. And I never thought I’d get a girlfriend. My first girl was someone whose first conversation with me was telling me how she disliked the girls in school wh...
