sounds like the harshest judgments and differentiating is happening internally, not externally. If you're talking about Nina G, she's a pretty great role model. If you look at her life (lots of friend...

Thank you for sharing and pouring out your heart and feelings here. I just turned 30 this year and I similarly have a blocking stutter, which I've had for as long as I can remember too. It's been ext...

Again, this sounds optimistic, but I'm afraid it's still a slap in the face of those who are not well off, despite an earnest effort on their part. That's how I see it, anyways. When we're talking abo...

>It's all in your mind Please, don't spread these platitudes in the context of stuttering. That's a slap in the face to all those to seek to better their condition and are not able to arrive at th...

You're going to be stuck with your husband for the rest of your lives. Your stutter is going to come up.... eventually (and much much sooner if you plan on having kids, because they zero in on it by a...

How do I lie about going for speech therapy?

How do I lie about going for speech therapy? As opposed to pre-school stuttering, I started stuttering when I was 10. I'm 27 now, and still stuttering, although I've learned to mask it better with wor...

Have you asked your parents if you ever stuttered when you were younger? If it is a late onset of stuttering, just know that the more you fear stuttering and try to avoid it at all costs, the more yo...

I've heard the, "if it doesn't work, it's your fault" justification from a lot of courses. And warring against something that is part of you sounds like a rough time. ...

Finding strength to be and stay optimistic despite having a stutter

Finding strength to be and stay optimistic despite having a stutter Stuttering has plagued my life to the point where I can't speak a single coherent sentence without stuttering. It has ruined potenti...

I actually have a hard time being around stutterers, since it keeps reflecting back on me (or however we should describe it). I guess not everyone feels that way, or maybe I just haven't be "climatize...

I don't think that most people find it annoying. None of my friends really care, nor do most strangers that I stutter in front of seem to care. I guess I just don't like seeing it in the media. I sti...

I'd say that for normal people who don't know struggle of stuttering it probably isn't annoying. But for a stutterer, who spent his whole life with it, it's associated with all the bad feelings and f...

In the interest of not becoming a stale repetition of myself, I'm going to watch it through, even though I too _hate_ watching things like that. BRB EDIT: Back. It wasn't as bad as I thought, but ev...

It not an uncommon reaction from people who stutter who don't come into contact with other people who stutter very frequently. It's like you see yourself in a mirror and it makes you wonder if you loo...

Why do you feel that stutters are annoying to the people to listen to? Have people told you that or is it based on you feel when you listen to someone else stutter? In my experience only a small minor...

I agree, it makes me uncomfortable as well. I would say that this guy has a pretty severe stutter, whereas I could classify mine as just mild. But I don't find stutters charming, or quirky, or cute,...

good for him for getting out there and turning it into a positive. But as a stutterer, this just makes me extremely uncomfortable. I have a weird thing about watching other stutterers stutter that mak...

I really know how that feels. I think I tend to do the same thing but usually don't realize it. Typically with a lot of "uh"s. What really sucks is when people don't know that I have a stutter and th...

My week was ok, friday was the last day in college/sixth form in year 13 and I said my goodbyes to people i'll never see again and signed t-shirts etc. It was compulsory to come into school the past f...

Ugh, I hate it when servers mock my stutter! Yes, I get that they probably think I just made a one-time stutter, they don't know it's an issue every day. But it's so embarrassing, especially when I'm ...
