Sadly I would say yes. Granted, my life right now isn’t “bad”, I have a great job and a relatively active social life. However, the stutter is mentally draining and it has definitely caused me to alte...

I stutter when I use my full name. It's not even the stuttering that's the annoying thing, it's the crippling anxiety that comes before it, just because I know it'll happen. For most of my adult life ...

I definitely get this. I’ve stuttered since I was in 4th grade. Never had a shred of self confidence since. I never spoke up in school and I never made new friends. It’s ruined my self confidence ...

My stammer was moderate in high school and uni. But since doing a PhD, where I have encountered many situations such as giving presentations it has eased. I remember vividly being terrified of present...

haha, funnily enough I actually have my self view turned off, because I feel like it made me feel very self conscious of myself when I block...but maybe I might give it a try again! And yup, I’ve al...

In the same boat indeed. However, I’ve noticed that I have better control if I can see myself speaking (just turn on Photobooth or whatever). For me it’s easier to catch tension and makes the blocks l...

I have gone from moderate to mild, and I will tell you what I know. I was a moderate stutterer in my 20s, and am now very mild in my 50s. This may or may not be helpful to your situation. But basic...

I have, from moderate to mild to mostly zero for long periods of time. I even forget that I stutter or start to believe I've finally outgrown it haha. For me, the key was to: 1. Master your fluency ...

-People at bars, coffee shops or any social gatherings. The looks, giggles or comments I get each time I stutter makes me stop talking every time. The feeling I’m being judged just because I stutter ...

if they can't "deal" with your stuttering then they aren't worth it. I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life with someone that closed-minded, would you? Your stutter is part of who you are. Ther...

I am not a doctor but a national trainer for our medical center . Do not let your stutter hold you back. I train (well, used to before Covid-19) medical staff in huge auditoriums, conferences, etc...

My advice is to disclose your stutter. Be upfront & honest. I am 49 years old, master's degree in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, married with 1 son AND a national trainer. My stutter star...

I have a stutter as well as ADHD and this is why I need a Pysch doc who has experience rather than one who is willing to just try the easiest stuff first. I think the Wellbutrin does more for me than ...

I think it's important that we sort of phase out those around us for a brief moment, when we're working through a stutter. The important thing is for us to continue delivering that which we intended. ...

Some people don’t know how to respond to people who stutter. I don’t know this person, but I doubt it was said maliciously. There will always be people that say things like that, and it will come whe...

I stutter since birth and have been told by my parents and a doctor that I have a (slight) ADHD and I don’t think anything would change at all if I had just a stutter. Also, being shy and introverted ...

Yes on both questions. I just practice my daily routine and U don't really pay attention to my stutter. I interviewed many PWS on my podcast and it's very different for all of us....

That dean's advice is a very good one tbh. I'm glad being a "undercover" stutterer worked for you, I tried that and failed miserabily XD. My stutter is too severe and emotion driven, I can't get by w...

I’ll read your essay a little later. I took notice of some very good points. I didn’t take seriously advice given many years ago which I’m probably paying the price for now in the so called “golden ye...

I feel you as I've been there. It's hard to give you a good advice for your particular case because it's hard to adress if it's a toxic or discriminative enviroment or not and how you feel about your ...
