Hey, we should really stop the bullshit "believe in yourself and you can achieve it!" Because without a doubt, it is MUCH easier to become a politician if you don't stutter than if you do. Stop actin...

I can say with absolute certainty that if I stopped stuttering right now my life would be a lot better....

This comment will probably be taken negatively, but OP's view of things is hugely present here and it often ends up in a sort of circlejerk where people agree that their speech impediment is the only ...

I know people who stutter who have or can do all the things you've just listed. Are you 100% certain you won't be able to these things or is it just an irritational belief?...

What did you want to do that you realized you will never be able to do?

What did you want to do that you realized you will never be able to do? Me personally: get into fields like politics or business which I knew I had the capabilities to succeed in besides the stutterin...

> There are plenty of jobs you can do with out having to talk. Sure, I'll do data entry for the rest of my life. Or maybe I would be lucky enough to find a job somewhere in a backroom loading boxe...

I HAVE A JOB. This was never about finding a job, but rather recognizing that stuttering is a disability. Whether you want to see it or not, people that stutter are disabled and because they are disab...

The fact that you want a hand out for something that millions of other people can cope with and live a normal life is the only retarded thing in this subreddit. There are plenty of jobs you can get wh...

How is stammering not a permanent disability??? It seldom if ever just goes away on its own. I've had it since I could remember. Regarding jobs, it's not that I think I'm above the work but I am above...

Its not about getting a job retard. Its about the everyday things that make stuttering a recognized disability. I think you have limited reading comprehension and you shouldn't be on this subreddit. B...

Nobody will know you're gay unless you tell them. If you have a speech impediment they'll know as soon as you open your mouth. Another thing, morbidly obese individuals who CHOSE to eat their way to 6...

I already tried that and the stammer followed me to the new job. And it's not an excuse, when you can't communicate to do your job it becomes a problem....

People don't realize how disabling stuttering can be for us. It's tough to order from drive through windows, talk on the phone, use any of those horrible automated voice recognition systems, even ask ...

When having limited communication ability limits you to low paying jobs it's real. How can anyone be happy wallowing in poverty and having to work a dead end job nonstop for peanuts? I know for a fact...

I shut up and die like this I guess, any alternatives?

I shut up and die like this I guess, any alternatives? You know I thought one day I would be someone, do something, I really really had the drive and I believed it. But I guess the years of bullying, ...

I'm not going to give the same tired bullshit advice of "Don't care about stuttering!, put yourself out there!" because everyone knows that advice is shit and doesn't have a foot in reality for most. ...

Hey i have a stuttering problem thats really messing up my life

Hey i have a stuttering problem thats really messing up my life Ive been stuttering every since i was young and im 18 now. Ive been getting therapy in school but now it doesn't seem to help much, it w...

Thank you for this. I'm 20 and I'm just starting to regain control (I don't necessarily mean in terms of speech) after years of letting my stutter and the associated anxiety win. As you say, the feeli...

First, trust me when I say you are not alone in dealing with this. I am a 18 y/o \(just turned 18\) male who severely stutters, and I also sometimes feel helpless and think [it is impossible to be a n...

Feel crappy

Feel crappy Just wanted to vent with those who will understand. I'm a chef and I was at work yesterday. The server asked how many minutes until a product would be ready (I wasn't late with it, he was...
