I’m 45 with a moderate to severe stutter. I have a difficult relationship with it. On the plus side - Had a great social life, went to law school, actually had a run as a d-list politician and had t...

Nah bro, this is not it. Don't let your stutter ruin your dreams - it's especially painful to read that you're genuinely passionate about physics, it's not even like you're at Uni for the sake of it. ...

Hello there, I am so incredibly sorry for the things you've had to go through because of other peoples insensitivity. I too have been bullied and laughed at and or sucks. As an introvert, I understand...

I wanted to quit college too. I wrote a letter to my parents explaining how I was sorry for wasting their money, etc. I never gave it to them, but my Mom found it one day and we had a long talk. My...

Please don't go through with it. Those guys are bullies and jerks. One day you'll be a successful physicist and they'll be still be jerks. If a person with a stammer (me) can argue in front of judge, ...

I’m sorry you’re going through such thing. University days were challenging for me as well and somehow you survive the shitty days. Think about what would hurt you more: quitting university and workin...

If your going into the interview thinking you're gonna blow it, you already failed 🤷‍♂️ best advice is to be upfront about your stutter right away, that always helps me. I blew 2 job interviews even ...

I would buy a condo and feel free to practice my speech all day and then hit the bars,clubs,festivals and any social events to talk with people regularly. When i was working i was stressed out living ...

Practice your key points so when it comes to it you know exactly what you’re gonna say, this has definitely helped me. You should also tell the interviewer that you stammer before the interview starts...

Pretty much overcame my stutter by doing something similar. Got a job as a barman in my early twenties, whereby I had to communicate constantly. These days most people don’t believe me when I tell th...

Honestly don’t know what to say, you should just talk with a friend or a professional. In regards to male social hierarchies, mentality is what separates men. I’m 24, struggled with extreme stutteri...

Bro chill. I was 270 lbs with a dead end job and hyperhidrosis (sweating condition) along with my stutter and life sucked. Couple years later now and I’m healthy, with a high paying remote job and act...

Its just that most customer service jobs rely on scripted materials. For example, reading off a script from A to Z when interactinf with a customer. Its hard when you cant use your own phrasing. A fri...

I would say just working on my self-esteem and positive reinforcement from other people. I also went to therapy for a while where I talked about my feelings about stuttering, shame, social anxiety e...

Currently work for an energy company. I found it scary as fuck at first and nearly quit but that motivated me to do well. I find ways around my speech, and even after nearly 6 years I still have hiccu...

I'm a teacher and I stutter. I'm in my 3rd year teaching and about 2 years ago, started speech therapy and letting myself stutter more openly but I still hide it too. For interview advice, do what'...

I work from home thankfully. But I worked two jobs prior. Both requiring a lot of communication. It’s difficult at first but you’ll get use to it....
