Onion rings

Onion rings For the most part I can speak pretty clearly. I can use filler words to say what I want or even if I repeat myself I eventually get the word out but damn I’m fucking 27 it’s January 1st 20...

Dentist thought I was retarded Went to a dentist appointment today and immediately started stuttering for 30 seconds until I conveyed what I was saying. The receptionists face completely changed and w...

Negatively. People avoid speaking to you in social settings and make fun behind your back or in your face. People assume you’re not intelligent (both adults and kids) throughout school, university an...

Comparatively less than real life because I know people behind screen don't know me. I prefer push to talk so even if I stutter I stopped talking. The feeling of anonymity give me less anxiety....

I am sure I have lost jobs or promotions because of it. But I also never wanted to be a manager - I just want to work and not deal with the politics - so that definitely has something to do with it b...

The only positives, while I still stuttered was this: learn how to deal with the feeling of being rejected better than my friends, who never stuttered. However, the feeling of rejection still stung a ...

The negatives are obvious and everyone knows about them. So here are the positives: 1) Patience, to listen to people more than you speak. 2) Confidence, of being rejected again and ag...

I’ve had a stutter my whole life, well I’m not that old yet like I’m still in school however I feel like I’ve had enough bad experiences to Atleast share one here. I’m not sure about you guys but unti...

What’s your most embarrassing moment? (If you feel like sharing) Mine was back in 2015 and I had a job interview with target for a warehouse position that a desperately needed at the time and little d...

Yeah, Lexapro helped a bit. I went into conversations without worrying about my stutter for the first time in years. I wasn't 100% fluent, but I was much better. However, I was only on it for 3 months...

Was on lexapro for close to two years and it greatly reduced my anxiety. Having less anxiety means you care less about what others think and therefore you are less worried about your speech. I’m only...

You wouldn’t tell a person who has anxiety “just stop worrying bro”. I’m glad I haven’t heard this one before because I would spit in their face....
