Making people uncomfortable

Making people uncomfortable So I just had a bad stuttering experience, was gross, just had a massive block and couldn't get the words out. So the story is my granddad called me and asked me to go ch...

Girls think it is cute, but when things go in the wrong direction, girls start blaming your stuttering for your failures and problems. It bothers me every time I approach anyone, especially a good lo...

I have had a stutter for the past 13 plus years and I am a server at Speedys (not real name) drive in. I was scared af my first week or two and after a bit my hours were cut to convince me to start ta...

I mean, no technique is perfect. But I would say it stopped 90 of my problem. I have a very out there personality. So singing (or at least just pretending to) really helped me open up even more. I've ...

Yes, and this, OP: Claire works at a fast food place and does the drive-thru a lot, which many many stutterers would not dream of. So, it's a huge triumph, but some days still really suck........

Very nicely written, I used to be like that for 7 years, then my stuttering gotten worse and I was basically forced to reveal my problem to others because I was unable to hide it anymore. I made mysel...

I.T. technician and service desk tech. It's a co-op position at my school. I have to talk all day and explain my fixes to staff. One of the most stressful parts is fixing issues in front of large grou...

First post, seeking advice

First post, seeking advice Hello stuttering friends. This is my first post here; I just wanted to share my experience/ask for some advice. So. I am 21 and in college. When I was young, my stutter was...

I personally feel that public speaking should be voluntary. Stutterers shouldn't be forced to be humiliated. I failed classes in college solely because I chose not to do oral presentations. I've alway...

I think I wrote about it at some point on here. At the time it really hurt and when I took her order out she never gave me a chance to say more than 2 words and so didn't know she was talking to me. S...

I guess that's the main problem for me, during my school years I had it mild, and I know what it feels like to have days to be fluent, but even with it mild, if I blocked in any conversation that emba...

Well you're certainly not alone. I'm kind of in a similar situation. Been stuttering since I was a toddler (as long as I can remember). Throughout grade school and into the 7th grade I attended speec...

Your story sounds like min, except for the depression thankfully. > HOW can you handle the shame and the embarrassment. If you see someone with a lost leg, do you think worse of them? You hav...

You asked to hear my story well I will gladly tell you but this is going to be long. I wish people would ask me this more often but people always seem uncomfortable about pointing out a problem they s...

I wish I had your courage and positive mindset, I can't seem to think positively no matter how hard I try. The real issue is clearly my self esteem, but it's always been low even during the good times...

I have a block stutter as well, but it is not severe anymore. Now, it is mild (I usually only stutter when I am first introduced to someone). My stutter used to be really bad, and it would get to poin...
