First Nursing Shift Tomorrow!

First Nursing Shift Tomorrow! Hi everyone! Just wanted to share that I am starting my first nursing placement tomorrow. I have always stuttered but it got a lot worse during high-school. Now that iv...

Looking back I appreciate teachers like that. They really pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to challenge myself. I still stutter but I’m not ashamed of it anymore...

Cure just like the cures for loosing weight. For stuttering I feel it’s similar - you need practice, but not only mechanical pronunciation but also building confidence that you can complete any inter...

Do what you feels right for you. Whatever journey that you are on is just that, it's your specific journey. There is no cookie cutter approach. I've interviewed over 153 people who stutter on my ...

We’ve all been there. Nothing to do, really, but learning to accept your stutter. Easier said than done, but also the only thing with any lasting effect. For now, anyone trying to sell you a cure is m...

What kind of mentality should I have?

What kind of mentality should I have? Every time I stutter, I hate myself. I feel super tired after like I need a lie down and need to cry and I feel tired of life. I’ve heard people say ‘the more you...

Personally I don’t think a stammer is something many people will have ‘learnt to love’ however I am personally on a journey to accepting that my stammer is something I will always have to some degree ...

Hey everyone im new to this group I have a stutter someday its really bad and someday I can perfectly normal but I was wondering if there was anyone here that has learned to take pride in there stutter/stammer and learned to love it

Meetings used to stress me out too in a similar way to what you’re describing when I was younger (I’m 38, so it’s not like I’m old lol). I’d be worried that I’d embarrass myself or people wouldn’t tak...

When I was younger it was all about trying to stop stuttering. As an adult it became more about acceptance. Acceptance might not even be the right word because I stopped thinking of it as an afflictio...

Really proud of you, were no different than anyone and housing get overlooked because of something that's not our fault...

Same. I just learned to trust myself a little more and remind myself of my worth as a human being. It took a few years and life experiences to realize this. I’m not 100% fully there yet, but I just re...

I’m 48 years old. I stammered for 45 years and had a severe form. Now I don’t stammer. I was only able to break this chain at the age of 48....

Take a closer look at this chain. When you examine it, you'll see the links are things like fear, avoidance, and self-judgment. You choose the chain every day. Others do not. You've forged this cha...

Personally for me it's not any harder to live a normal life than anyone else. It's not like we're dying or wheelchair bound or something that would actually hinder anything. I can't think of any job o...

One of the biggest challenges I’ve felt and seen others work towards overcome is that it really is just about letting go what other people think of you. For me, as the previous comment said, a major p...

I am just trying to help you I am sorry if I made you emotional. Its just you seem to exhibit traits of a mentally unwell person maybe that is a better way to put it. As soon as you accept your disa...

nah Its a disability no matter what your delusional mind thinks. Just as the earth is round no matter how much someone thinks its flat. Science doesn't care about your "opinion". Its about truth. I...

This has never been an issue for me. Probably because I can express myself fully (small stutters) with my partner and close friends.  I’m 29 yo, male, stuttering since I can remember. Mostly fluent w...

There is no magic pill that will "cure" stuttering. It's a lifetime journey of self realization in which you overcome this challenge....
