Has anyone's stutter ever gotten in the way of a relationship?

Has anyone's stutter ever gotten in the way of a relationship? We were both young and were both are main priorities. She was pretty, funny, and as socially as awkward as I was. We would text each othe...

Did I say any of that shit to you about stop trying and go die? You can try as hard as you like but pretending to be able to do anything with a speech impediment is a pitiful joke. All I'm suggesting...

Yeah you are totally right. I have been struggling a lot with that and my natural response is to just shut myself out from everyone and hide from the world. I think i am gonna be living in a lot of ho...

I feel the same way. I completely isolated myself for about two years when i turned 18, dropped out of school and barely spoke two anyone for two years. It made my stutter much worse and i completely ...

Tough Week

Tough Week Sometimes I just do not get stuttering. I've restarted therapy and have been going for the past month. I've been noticing some improvements until this last week. I don't know what happened ...

Yes be careful with benzos! And if you decide you want to come off them make sure you do taper off of it. Not just cold-turkey, oh shit I ran out of my meds. But a scheduled taper preferably under a *...

This is a life dilemma for people who stutter. Me personally, I have never applied for jobs where you need to speak to customers a lot. Not because I avoid it but because my education is more aimed to...

Sometimes, Yes. If I had stuttered really bad, I would only think about it and get depressed. It affects my work life. I have become lazy, I delay things, I avoid tasks....

So many similar things to my life. I'm sorry bro, I haven't figured it out myself how to fix it yet....

"All I feel that's lacking in my life is a cute girlfriend. Talking with females has been my biggest problem and it just hurts knowing that I would do so much better with girls if I could speak fluent...

Don't let your stutter limit your choices in life. You'll grow disappointed in yourself. For self confidence that's the worst stab. If you're not gonna get the job you're gonna look for the other one,...

I'm happy for you for not letting it drag you down! If every stutterer would be like you stuttering might not even be a problem. The point about psychology is, if stuttering is mental problem, it's ca...

Don't let how long it takes for you to speak, or how you sound get in the way of saying what you want to say. Life is to short for that. It takes a lot to overcome this. Your stutter shouldn't have to...
