Asking for ketchup in a drive thru. I don't eat hardly any fast food now, but I ate many a dry fry back in the day lol....

Lol I have a similar case, when I want to buy a slushie or something I can't point on with my finger in the school's food stand, I ask my friends if they want me to buy them something, so I give them ...

I got you. I have a similar thing, I have a food stand in my school and I barely buy there but when I buy I always pick the things that I can point on with my finger...

I will fake an incoming phone call and leave the room if someone starts playing a name game for introductions....

What's the most random thing you avoid because of stuttering?

What's the most random thing you avoid because of stuttering? I avoid wearing band shirts in public because I'm afraid people will ask me to name 5 songs and I won't be able to say it and they'll thin...

I recently left my barista job at Starbucks, but my coworkers were overwhelmingly accepting and my one shift manager literally had a bachelors in speech pathology and had a really heartfelt one-on-one...

I went to NHS speech therapy at around 21 about ten years ago. I don't remember a very long waiting list. I think I had around 10-12 sessions and it was enormously helpful. I also deal with a lot of...

Struggling with my stutter and confidence

Struggling with my stutter and confidence Hey all, 23 years old and have a stutter my whole life. I’m usually able to take it in my stride, being that it’s a part of who I am and that’s it etc. Have ...

I also isolated all my life from social situations but on the other hand giving up and hiding when you know you have potential has become so painful....

Speech Therapy as Adult UK?

Speech Therapy as Adult UK? I did speech therapy as a child when I was 6 or 7 years old. I remember a lot of it was me reading from a comic/magazine and the therapist clicking a button every time I st...

It always helped me to disclose that I stutter at the start of an interview. Kind of put me at ease like I wasn't hiding anything anymore, and helped me be more fluent. I find we stutter the most when...

You ever heard of Arky? He’s a twitch streamer who has a stutter. Watch 5 minutes of him and you’ll see him block. We have the same type of stutter so I really like him. He doesn’t let it get it in th...

The one place I found comfort is auto mechanics and welding. I don't stutter with a welding lid over my face or at least you can't see it and my hands do all the talking lol...

I have felt that way my whole life, although usually my trade was something smaller, like a finger or even a hand. I had never used Reddit before, but finding this at least reminds me that I am not al...

Forgot to add that I agree with you for sure, I also find it super difficult to listen to somebody else who stutters. But I suppose that’s the trade off for better representation...

Honestly I completely agree, I think it’s a tough situation as better representation would be great but for sure I also find it difficult to watch somebody else stutter. Funnily enough I’m yet to watc...

As a stutterer I just cant watch people stuttering. I was trying to watch the Penguin but when that stuttering dude showed up I had to turn it off. It sucks but I just feel intense cringe...

I understand your point. I think what I mean is you’ll often see actors for example, saying don’t let it hold you back when the vast majority of them stopped stuttering before adulthood. I think this ...

I mean, I get it? We deserve to be heard, but the process of listening to us is probably pretty awkward. I stutter but I don't think I'd watch a stuttering news anchor....

If you take a look at the statistics on stutterers, you would think that you would meet someone with this problem every day, right? The truth is that without fluent speech, you are generally not allo...
