I would leave out the 'excuse me' part when advertising your stuttering. It makes it sound like you are ashamed of it. ...

Very interesting, and same for me. It was never anger for me but painful cringe/embarrassment to hear other people stutter. Didn't even realize it was projection. Doesn't happen anymore now that I've ...

I get the same way whether I want to or not. I think it's like seeing myself in a mirror and being pissed off at how pathetic I look and wishing I could just talk to myself from the outside and tell m...

This is why I like this forum. Thanks for answering, I guess it's projection and things in the back of my head that I've opressed that shows when I hear someone else stutter. ...

Like Berry said it is projection. I felt the same when I heard someone else stuttering and surprisingly when I spoke to the person I did not even stutter once! I felt like my mind was taking over and ...

You have internalized self hatred of your stuttering and project it on others stutterers when you hear them....

We are extremely similar! I made a post about this a few months ago, though I feel a lot more uncomfortable than mad. Like other people say, it's projection; it's what oyu think about yourself project...

Am I the only one getting mad when hearing other people stutter?

Am I the only one getting mad when hearing other people stutter? I've been stuttering for as long as I can remember. I'm currently 17 years old and I'm going to school to be an electrician. I'd descri...

Wow... Thank u so much for such an extensive reply. I will try and implement the disclosure that u said, i guess it will make me feel less guilty....

okay, I have another. mimick yourself stuttering. Do it as you would make fun of someone else stuttering. Really mimick it, mock it. Pretend yourself stuttering in the most disgusting way (not imagini...

Shit, I'm sorry to hear that. But I kinda envy you for having the guts to beat up people and stand up for yourself, personally I've always kinda been a coward when it comes to dealing with jerks....

> It seems like the thing that all these words have in common is that you have to quickly bend your tongue back to make the "er" sound which I'm not able to do quickly or smoothly enough so I get t...

yeah fuck this. When I am able to say "thanks" or "thank you", a lot of times it's very quick, forced, and awkward. ...

Haha, thanks for the support, really appreciate it. Yeah I'm already trying to reach the 'idgaf' phase, but after years of conditioning myself to fear people talking behind my back, it's gonna be a r...

"Thank you" plagues me too. I often can only say it as I'm stepping away from the cashier or in motion, or in some sort of situation where it's not a straight up one on one. Lots of awkward ends to co...

Well it's not like they'd put me in jail for not saying goodbye. The problem is, everyone else does it and people kinda expect you to do the same for the sake of being polite. I don't want people to ...

And just because they know that you stutter doesn't mean it's not any less difficult. I still feel shame when I go to casually say bye and stumble on my words, leaving the gathering with a sour taste ...

Y'know, saying stuff like "I'm gonna head home guys, thanks for tonight" or even simpler ones like "See you later". It's relevant because people expect you to say those kind of things when leaving so...

I just found this subreddit, thought I would introduce myself and tell my story, so to speak.

It's hard when every other word you sound like a broken record and everyone has to stare at you awkwardly until the stutter is over then half way in the stutter you realize what you were trying to say...
