All good. Just have to learn how to live with the stutter. It’s what makes me ME. Easier said than done though....

It isn't the name you have that you stutter on it - it's the fact that is your name that means you stutter on it. I've a close friend who is a trans PWS, and have talked about this very issue.but retr...

I could never say my full first name, so I shortened it. I still stutter with my nickname....

Nah, you would still be a dick but without the stutter!...

About 10 years ago I worked next to a guy who also stuttered. He asked me if I didn't stutter would I be still be working the same job I currently was. Im glad he asked that question because nobody ha...

I’m considering switching to my middle name. It is easier for me to say, however I’m not sure how long that’ll last until the stutters/blocks come for that as well....

Considering Changing My Name

Considering Changing My Name My whole life I have struggled to say my name. I’m not an anxious or nervous person, in fact, I’d consider myself somewhat extroverted. My name starts with an “N”, and I e...

Yes I do have a stutter and I clearly know of it. :) Thanks for the information! I'm going to ask the doctor about potential fees before going to their place next time....

Thank you for your reply! Interesting that I have thought about going into SLP in my younger years. Well paradoxically when I was trying to get diagnosed I could let my guard down a little and talk mo...

I've been there. I finally broke down and asked for help about a year ago. It's better. I'm still not sure who I am, it's been over 20 years since the last time I was anything like happy. For me th...

You aren't looking for "most girls". You're looking for one girl. Remember that all people think differently. Grouping girls as thinking one way is completely wrong. Each individual girl will be think...

It does! Lots of people comment on how a friend/relative of theirs does too. I enjoy helping to normalize stuttering in general. The team and I are working together to resolve this issue. I didn’t k...

OP, you and me both. I've stuttered ever since I can remember and almost on a daily basis I tend to daydream as to how my life would be different if i had fluent speech. Honestly, I'm at a point now a...

Hey, OP So sorry to hear you’re going through a tough time, but you’re not a failure! You’re only a failure when you give up, but in line 3, you said you don’t let it stop you, so you’re not a failu...

Just a rant

Just a rant I’m just do tired of being told outright and treated like I would be better without my stutter. No hate to anyone, but I don’t let my stutter stop me, I get disqualified and rejected in an...

My adhd medicine helps me focus on fluency with my stutter, but it didn’t completely go away. I still have to actively try and work on being fluent. Although I think it’s cool there’s another adhd gir...
