Fuck these people. Honestly I can’t understand why no one laughs at people who miss limbs for example, but it is socially acceptable to laugh at stuttering people. We need more awareness in society as...

Reminds me of a time I was on the phone with tech support at work. They asked for my info, and I started to stutter. They said, "It would be nice if you told us your name." If I was deficient at all ...

Worked at retail for years. Often the laugh is then coupled with outright ignorance like "Oh, I didn't know" as if that makes it okay. What I did was burn a few seconds at the start, on days I could f...

I know they just feel guilty. I know they obviously don’t have a stutter because 1. they wouldn’t laugh at mine 2. they say ‘my words get mixed up sometimes’. I just feel like they don’t have a clue w...

I have had people telling me they stutter too, when it's obviously they don't. Having problems pronouncing a word every now and then is not the same. I do that too sometimes (like everyone else) and...

Whenever I get stopped at road blocks for drunk drivers I always lead with telling them that I have a stutter and that's why my speech is messed up, not because I'm just black out drunk. I've made a c...

I’m sorry you had to go through that. I once had a cop accuse me of being drunk when I was stuttering. Fucking hate that shit. But at least it sounds like you’re in a workspace that supports you....

I really hate in some movies that only the autistic kid or whatever illness is having that kid has as side effect stuttering..fking hell you don't have to be born ill or without legs to stutter...

i still have my days where i get so in the dumps but on most days i really keep it fresh on my mind how my stutter filters out alot of fake ppl from my life. People that love you. theyll listen and mo...

Thank you so much! I’m glad your highschool was so supportive of you :) it’s just scary I live in a little hick town with a bunch of dicks who make fun of people like us and it’s really hard. I apprec...

How it affects us and our everyday lives and how others treat us/ perceive it as a laughing matter most of the time. I hope to see this soon!...

Thank you so much for the advice. It’s so good to realize others struggle with the same things and we can help each other. I feel like no one really cares about the people who stutter and use them as...

I stutter, I don't consider myself disabled but it is certainly detrimental, and if I could get money from it I would do so shamelessly. Having people do that is a nice gesture in theory, I'd apprec...

One of my friends from high school offered to speak for me in front of new people so I wouldn’t be embarrassed by my stutter. Which made me even more embarrassed. We’re not friends but that’s because ...

I dont think having a stutter is even close to being disabled. People will suggest stupid stuff all the time. Dont take it too seriously....

Someone "looking out" for your best interest

Someone "looking out" for your best interest I have a job and my co-workers and I were having a quick passer-by, casual conversation. Long story short, one of them suggested, in a friendly way, never ...

My brother told me the guy would speak normally drop in one repetition of letter and carry on with a smug look on his face. This isn’t a perfect example and isn’t close at all, but the way my brother...

I don't even understand why you would *want* to fake a stutter....

Ever met anyone who faked a stutter? If you have, what was their reason?

Ever met anyone who faked a stutter? If you have, what was their reason? My brother used to know a guy who faked his stutter for no reason. Like straight up, just faked a stutter. I don’t know about ...

Because it only affects 1% of the population and I guess a billionaire hasn't gotten it so no one cares....
