>Getting my defense done; presenting posters; giving oral presentations; and teaching lab lecture was very difficult. I always prefaced saying "I sutter and if I'm not clear, let me know and I'll t...

Thanks man, really appreciate it. It’s just it has been a while since people mentions my speech problem, and moreover suggesting me to see therapy. Last time people do this must be when I was in thir...

Something that worked for me isn’t speech therapy per se, but it’s similar. The National Stuttering Association has chapter meetings in big cities. It’s a way to talk to people who have the same thing...

*Whenever someone mentions suicide, I feel obligated to mention r/SuicideWatch. You're not alone.* ---   We all waste each other's time all the time, so to say. That's sort of what culture...

This has just made my day. Knowing that I’m not alone with my problems truly is encouraging because people like u are the support. But to address your comments, I really like how u said we need mental...

Everyone says they understand and I appreciate there feelings about it. But I wish they would walk in my shoes for a day and feel what I feel....

I don’t feel the same but I can empathise with how you feel, as there is nothing worse than people laughing or thinking you’re messing around or something! Mine is bad enough that the first time peopl...

Don't give up, you're not alone! It's a battle for all of us and it does get easier as you get older. My stutter was a lot worse in my teenage years and it was only when I started to accept it, get pr...

You're not alone. It's a lifelong battle for most of us, even if it becomes more tolerable as we age. I think the first step is acceptance. Then you realize that it shouldn't define you, then you'll b...

Yes, but it's more that I don't want to be bothered. I just keep my answers short and sweet. Recently my mom (no stutter but bad anxiety) said that she went and literally couldn't deal with the stylis...

I'm actually kind of lucky bc my former stylist never talked while doing my hair which was absolutely fine for me. My current stylist has been a friend of mine for many years so I know it won't be tha...

Thanks man! I needed that encouragement today. I didn't really know what to do with my hands though. Usually in school if I need to go get something I point towards the door and start a sentence, and...

Some days are better than others, hang in there. Seek out an NSA (National Stuttering Association) chapter near you for support ♥️ you’re not alone....

This is good advice. Especially how people view your stutter. Most people won't care and if you're a decent human being they won't even acknowledge that you have a stutter because it's more magnified ...

That's a really great point, I didn't even think of that despite having selective mutism myself when I was younger. If he does have it he seems to show it differently than I did, so I guess I'll do so...

Thank you for being so empathetic towards him in your response, and for all your info, you've given me lot to think about! I liked reading your thought process so don't think of it as rambling haha! ...
