I regret not doing it. I've been struggling with mental health issues and I think my stutter is at the heart of them but I've never addressed it directly. I'm a covert stutterer and most people won't ...

Social skills I’ve been stuttering ever since I can remember with a mild to moderate stutter. As a kid it was rough always the outcast and I think it’s because of my stutter but I’m not sure. It wasn’...

I felt the same way for a long time. I realize more and more most people don't care if you stutter or not. I cared way more about it than needed. Too much of an emotional drain. Gave me a better p...

Has stuttering made you more mature and an introvert?

Has stuttering made you more mature and an introvert? Fear of stuttering made me a introvert... It made a talk a lot less.... I have noticed that I stopped taking part in discussions and talks.... I j...
