Oh my God, right? Having people repeat what you do, knowing fully well you didn't intend to do that and to just look at you and laugh? Granted, it's a five year old, but to have teachers and even peop...

I wish my confidence is not crushed within a nano second after I stutter . ...

Sure. If you constantly dream of a life without a stutter, you are essentially wasting your time. This in turn leads you to being depressed and angry with your life. You may become suicidal, like I wa...

Same, really. I remember feeling such shame over it. I was taking speech therapy when I was around 18 years old, and I remember lying to my speech therapist about doing my speech therapy homework wi...

People almost treat you child like because of it. I can talk, it just comes out different, I’m not a toddler who doesn’t know how to speak. ...

At My Breaking Point

At My Breaking Point Hi everybody! After finding this subreddit earlier and reading some posts I've decided to create an appropriately named throwaway account and post how I'm feeling living with my s...

just curious, but how did you find out that you stutter when you were 10 years old? how did you feel? btw congrats mate. it's kinda nerve-raking at times. ...

yes, i really do hope that people can understand what it feels like in these situations. i sometimes feel like i’m ‘one step behind’ anyone else, when others can express their ideas with total fluency...

I feel you brother. I have a mild to moderate form of stuttering and it has effected my daily life and made even simple tasks challenging and have thought about suicide every now and then especially t...

this pisses me off too much I think it's time for them to stop giving us suggestions which would make our situation worse off. When I get a really bad block in front of everyone, I reveal my true i...

I had one of the biggest interviews of my life last week on the phone. It lasted around 2 hours and I had a few spots where I stuttered big time, and it ruined my day. Needless to say, I was super ups...

My parents would say "don't stutter" every time I would stutter. Like, thanks. You cured me. About thinking before you speak, I definitely don't think it helped me at all. When giving speeches in sch...

I had the exact same thing happen to me last week. One of the HR persons called out of the blue and asked me a few additional questions and I could barely get any words out and I was embarrassed beyon...

Just wanted to let you know you're not alone with having parents ridicule you for stuttering. I was mocked at home for stuttering, even though it was clear I was born with it. The mocking stopped afte...

When I was younger, I was made fun of by my family for stuttering. Not every day, but one the days where my stutter was bad, I would be mocked at home sometimes. It really crushed me, because it was o...

I've had similar experiences, I'm sure we all have on this thread. I had close friends of mine who would make fun of me for stuttering. My own family would make fun of me for stuttering. I've certai...

answering questions during class well once i was in economics class, and the teacher asked a question, and i immediately knew the answer in my head. then when the teacher addressed me to answer the ...

Dude that’s horrible. I stutter too and I’ve always felt less of a man because of it. My parents hv never mentioned it. I decided to get therapy but discovered it’s not curable. I can only try to man...

That's really interesting because I've felt similar. If I encounter someone with a speech impediment (not stuttering), I am very patient and understanding. But when I heard this man stutter, my immedi...

This is why I've never attempted to go to a NSA meeting. My stutter isn't horrible, and I feel embarrassed thinking I deserve to go, even though I know that's not how it works. That's really honest ...
