I think you are mixing up multiple things. First and foremost, can you live a happy and fulfilling life being a stutter? YES. People learn to live with their disability and still enjoy life. Can you...

If that makes you happy then great. I wish I could do that. But for me? Nope. I don't think I ever can...

You're dead wrong. I've been where you are. Hopeless of any chance of leading a normal life or of being even remotely happy. The only person reducing your worth is you. Quit blaming your stutter &am...

Convince me this is not a lower standard of living.

Convince me this is not a lower standard of living. After my last post on here I'm still not convinced that it's all in my head. So far I think it's quite the opposite. I think there is a significa...

You can, but it's on you, not anyone else. If you really want to help yourself then you will. If not, then you'll just continue bitching on the internet (& in person I would imagine) about how awf...

Agreed with Schwarze, not dumb nor would I say I don't experience success. As a precursor to this unsolicited advice, I don't have any medical/professional experience with depression. That being sai...

Help for university!

Help for university! Hello guys. I'm new to this group. I have speech impediment since I was 4 or 5 I don't remember for sure. Now I'm 20. Two years ago I went to study Business and Logistics. I didn'...

I feel absolutely zero pressure. I just think that it is a complete waste of time to try to date. The juice just isn't worth the squeeze. ...

One of my biggest issues as a teenager...

One of my biggest issues as a teenager... When I was younger I felt I had no control over my speaking. No control whatsoever! I would try and talk to people and would leave feeling defeated. I would a...

Not the same kind of pain, I'd say. But if you think you're gaining (something) after each time you stutter, I suppose the interpretation might work for you. :)...

In my experience at least, I've never met a stutterer that didn't have ANY degree of control over it. The common notion is that we all have our bad days & our good days. Almost everyone I've encou...

I'm at the airport and have only had 90 mins sleep. Apologies if my answer is poorly explained. I highly doubt the change would have happened by itself. My worst times were when I was passive about ...

I agree. You have no idea what you'll be doing in a few years. I believe that the only person holding you back is you 99% of the time....

But look, you are just one data point. Lots of other people work equally hard and continue to stutter. How do you know that your hard work was the cause of the change in your speech? Maybe the change ...

I absolutely agree, and I'm glad you asked that question, because it leads into an important issue amongst a lot of stutterers. I spent four (mostly) wonderful years with my crush from early middle s...

I think stutterers are better at being loners than other people. It takes alot for me to be lonely, I'm never bored. I generally like time to myself. But there's still that emptiness that comes wit...

I came here for the same reason, and just submitted my first post yesterday! It's helpful for me to know I'm not alone and can connect with others who have had very similar experiences. I think your...

I'm starting to become bitter about my stutter.

I'm starting to become bitter about my stutter. Hey there everyone, My name's Kevin and I've been a lifelong stutterer. Growing up I never really took issue with my stutter because it felt more covert...

In college, thought I made friends but they stopped inviting me to do stuff. Apparently they were too busy. It's hard b/c people don't understand my anxiety and awkwardness and I have trouble fittin...

I masturbate furiously until the self-loathing consumes me and then I just sit in a corner while listening to some slow piano music eventually I'll feel a tiny bit better....
