I remember the nightmares you're talking about. I was 10 and I was wandering if I could ever become a doctor, an actor or doing any other job that involved quite a bit of talking. I remember feeling f...

I have a moderate to severe stutter and I was highly self conscious and had self esteem problems in high school. After I attended a speech program at 18 I was able to change my mindset and learn techn...

Everytime when i go to any restaurant and look at the menu , i don't actually search for a meal i like but rather i search for a meal that i can say. I actually don't eat fast food because ordering it...

Yes, always! Also the reason why I always pick water instead of other drinks even if I want to. Makes it way easier for me to order. The No Ice thing is a bit of a hassle though especially when the st...

President Biden

President Biden I may be wrong but why is it that Joe Biden hasn't come out and admitted he has a stutter?... I feel like he is hiding and it's making it a lot more difficult for him. What are your th...

Pretty much everything really. You become hesitant to raise ur hands and answer questions you know the answer to, you only speak mostly to ur close circle whom ur comfortable with, this sort of stuff ...

I know how you feel, phone calls are the worst for me as well. My mom and I have a catering business and slowly I'm the one who has to talk to the customers so every time the phone rings I try to reme...

It probably has the same reason that stutters don't stutter when talking to themself: No anxiety or fear of being embarrassed...

I completely agree with you. DON'T GIVE UP. I am 30 years old, and I stutter myself. I got my B.S. in Biology, so I know organic chemistry 1 & 2 are extremely difficult. Do not give up on being a ...

This is a big one for me. I would definitely make phone calls, order food over the phone, and apply for a job that requires a video interview or phone interview. I have a decent control over my speech...

I thought of using my throwaway account but I guess I should try and post a comment here using my own. The past months before the year ended have been pretty rough on me and I felt pressured, was I ha...

I haven't, stuttering never pushed me further then short-time depressions. What I can understand however is the feeling of “not having a valid reason“ for feeling down. Even in economically developed ...

Honestly, I'd make so many of the phone calls I've been putting off lately. And then I'd call all my friends and have long conversations about all the things I often don't have the energy to talk abou...

Sometimes environment change can have positive impact with people who stutter. I know a successful entrepreneur with severe stutter. Built a successful business with over 200 employees and $100m in tu...

I'd start recording gaming videos and streaming a lot more. Always been passionate about those hobbies but stuttering really ruins it....

I would go clubbing, make some friends, it's basically impossible for me now when all I (don't) have is a personality. Before I started stuttering I had so many friends and now I can't even hold a con...

Yes! I block a lot and I know which words are my bad words so I've cut them out of my vocabulary altogether so that I'm mostly fluent and many of the people around me don't know I stutter and so somet...

Happened to me all the time when I was in school. But I was in school in the 90’s and early 2000’s. No one gave a fuck about feelings back then, so I just had to accept it. It really feels bad when yo...

Yeah, stuttering is known to vary a lot, depending on what we're doing. To emphasize the point: • You have no stutter when you're singing, because you're not *speaking*. • You have much less stutte...

I'd advise against taking it to higher authority. You'll ended up retroactively embarrassed. This is something you're going to have to deal with forever. Best to handle internally. This is just my exp...
