I know all stutterers speak more fluently alone, but do you also think more clearly alone?

I know all stutterers speak more fluently alone, but do you also think more clearly alone? The words I do get out when im in conversation dont accurately represent myself. My thoughts are also impacte...

Job hunting is depressing, any recommendations?

Job hunting is depressing, any recommendations? I'm currently just going for the grunt jobs. Retail assistant, warehouse, whatever. There's loads of jobs that I get ready to apply for because they ...

+1 Stuttering set me on the path to never trying to date. But based on what I see out there; it doesn't look like I'm missing much....

> The feeling after the presentation is just the worst, like my mind just won't function and cant get anything done for the rest of the day. I know how that feels. A 2-3 minute presentation can fe...

Read everything you typed in its entirety. You're right you aren't alone! Having "cookie cutter" phrases you say with the words you can say right can feel so isolating, because you really aren't sayi...

This too shall pass, as rough as this may seem this too shall pass. > After my freshman year goes by we are forced to move to San Antonio sadly. A move is tough, you aren’t alone. It is really em...

Well I don't think that the belief cannot be overcome - I think people overcome limiting beliefs all of the time. And I don't think it is the matter of flicking a switch and turning off a limiting bel...

I find that school of thought useless, personally. Even if it were true that it was only a belief holding us back (I don't think it is, and there's more science out there supporting that than not), if...

It is possible the belief, conscious or not, that "I can't overcome it" or "I am a stutterer" is an anchor holding us back? For those that have become fluent that I have read about, I wonder where the...

Yea id recommend a psychologist too. Talk through your stuff. You the man. You gota know it. Stuttering is part of who you are, who i am. It is what it is. Dont use it as a crutch like I did through m...

Firstly i'm glad you took action to post and are trying to do positive things. It sounds like your mental/emotional issues extend beyond speech. Stuttering can play a part, but not even care about soc...

Taking the easy way really only makes it harder in the future. I have been unemployed for these last two months. Mainly because I just feel too tired to look for a job. And every time I look through t...

Thanks man. I really appreciate that you are willing to talk to me, although I’m not sure that I’m ready to Skype with a stranger one on one yet. But I have been thinking about joining some stuttering...

I read it. Sounds like you're pretty isolated, but I can't tell whether you've decided you want to change that or not. Good luck though, either way, and well done on the weight loss, that's impressive...

Honestly, you need to look at it as a life changing experience. Something that is going to change your whole personality, because if you don't, it will fail. Your introverted personality currently is ...

Thank you for the response. I'm currently in the process of joining the McGuire Programme in Malmø, Sweden. The only thing that bothers me is that you have to live in a certain hotel, which costs arou...

I'm curious... do you stutter in English AND in your own language? I have definitely felt like you. I actually have contented myself with quite a solitary life for a long time. However, now I'm tra...
