I remember feeling like that. I know what you mean. I've been through it, millions of times, a lot of years wasted in agony. Later I focused on other things in my life and it got better. Just make it...

I know that feeling all too well. People don't realize it, but not being able to express yourself is one of the most frustrating experiences anyone can go through. Having something funny or smart to s...

Well, you shouldn't look at the empty half of the glass, when I think of myself as underprivileged I remember that there ones are who would love to stutter if it meant that they can speak. Go to thera...

I went to another job interview today

I went to another job interview today Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've posted here. I made these two topics a little while back. [https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/aexqhj/have\_a\...

They weren't joking about my stutter leaving, they used to joke about how I used to stutter. It wasn't malicious or anything, they legit thought it was funny/cute I guess....

Totally understand the frustration... not being able to speak your thoughts can be brutal, especially when it seems so effortless for everyone else. I would try and meet and possible befriend as many ...

Talk to someone. Parents, siblings or friends. For suicide in general here is a link for a text based hotline: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/chat/ To discuss stuttering and those negativ...

Depends on the person but "that's ok" would seems like the most polite/neutral answer. But if they do some research afterwards, to understand the problem a little more it would be awesome....

Agreed, depends on the person/how they said it. Chances are I would feel happy, especially if I was really working on being fluent....

I've had similar experiences growing up, I remember at one point of my childhood I completely stopped stuttering but my family members joking brought it up every now and then. Even though they were ...

It all depends on how they say it. My sister who I always talk to abt my stutter saying this to me would be a nice pat on the back and a sense of accomplishment for me. And generally if anyone else sa...

They’re trying to help. My friends and teachers say it all the time. It actually gives me a lot of confidence....

How would you feel if someone said "you sounded so fluent"?

How would you feel if someone said "you sounded so fluent"? After I gave a presentation, someone (who knows that I stutter) had said this to me....

You are not alone my friend. Have you met any other people who stutter, and/or have you been to any support groups? NSA (National Stuttering Association) has many chapters, basically support groups, a...

It sucks. It really fucking sucks. I beat this shit when I was 36, but after stuttering for 30 years, my mental state is still kind of fucked. Life can always be better or worse. It's up to you to dec...

Yeah. You’re unlucky. We are too. Seriously just imagine, God could’ve gave you schizophrenia, which makes up 1% of the population too. **Schizophrenia!** Would you rather want that or just have a sp...

I tried to kill myself a number of times when I was younger. I felt much like you, no one understood me and I had no future. I'm so sorry you are going through this but glad you reached out to this su...

I do the exact same thing knowing that im not the only one that does this makes me happy and no longer scared to talk :]...

Kudos to you for not backing down and standing your ground against this kid. Most of would just hide in silence...

At least you didn’t stutter when you said that to him! Congratulations for that achievement!...
