If he's a regular and it's obvi what he wants... You can't help but know what he is about to say. I think well meaning people do this and really mean well: the fact that you came here to ask shows t...

Trouble with being "respectful"?

Trouble with being "respectful"? Wondering if anyone else has a similar experience. No matter who I talk to, whether it's a friend, classmate, work colleague, my boss, parents, etc. I always talk in p...

Don’t stress urself mate I also applied to join the Army and I passed the first two tests successfully, such as the physical test and the written test, I failed the interview, I barely said two words ...

Update: I had the interview. I recorded myself the entire time to look back and see how I sounded. I sounded good in the beginning I didn’t really stutter but then mid way and at the end I was getting...

And my stuttering in other languages is the thing I’m working on now. More acceptance work to be done and building in some ease, reminding myself it’s a rewarding situation, allowing some audible stut...

For sure bombed a few in my life so far lol. Some I couldn't even get a word out let alone my name. I feel like the first few interviews after not having to in a long time are rough then it gets easie...

I had a phone call interview at Apple. I botched it so hard, not so much with the stuttering, but also with absolutely ass answers. If I had answered correctly, and spoke clearly, it would had changed...

For me speech therapy only taught me tools to get pass my blocks. They also did exposure therapy with me that helped me build confidence slightly. However that confidence was only temporary so once I ...

Lots of bombed interviews (Even when I lay out the preamble as a PWS). Lots of lost opportunities. Lots of experience of seeing the “oh boy” eye roll look on HR and other interviewers faces when they ...

Yup. I even let the recruiter know before the interview that I stuttered, in hopes it would take the pressure off. I could barely get a sentence out....

You ever bombed a job interview?

You ever bombed a job interview? Ever have an employer contact you about a prospective job offer and then go into the interview and stammering all over the place? This has happened twice this year and...

I usually give a heads up about my stutter in the first minute of job interviews to avoid lots of awkward looks when I get stuck on words. Had a mix of reactions—some interviewers looked very bored an...

Decide what you want to do. I started on a farm then a warehouse. There are jobs you can find that have minimal speaking if that is a concern....

I almost exclusively block and I kinda suspect my boss has caught on that it's a stutter. He used to try to help by reminding me of the word. Now he just waits patiently....

I think they outgrow stutter because they let go the worrying and the strategies about speaking. Initially, because they are learning to speak, they have to think more in order to correct themself. ...

I like the advice about using a character voice. When I'm on the phone with someone who doesn't know me, I've noticed taking on a different speech pattern and pitch can help immensely. Remember, a lot...

Yes, so I fantasize about hiring an assistant to whom I can text what I want to say. He will start saying that thing and then I take over. It's like asking someone to get the kite afloat in the sky ...

Wondering how to get a job

Wondering how to get a job I really want to start working and making money but I feel like it would be hard for me or I wouldn't get hired because I stutter, maybe I need encouragement or something? I...

People just accept stuttering like its not treatable For some time now I am in the discord of the subreddit and I noticed a lot of people are just accepting the fact that they stutter and live with it...
