I feel great satisfaction From having conversations and being in a large group wether this is short or long. But, when I have a bad stammer and people say the fucking ‘ok’ i feel utter satisfaction so...

I mentioned it in the initial reply (maybe not clearly enough) but I want to try and expand upon it more since you say something like this and it makes me sad. It's quite common to be insecure and h...

I wasted over 15 years of my life hiding from everything because I couldn’t talk. I was sick of being looked at like I was mentally challenged. Jobs wouldn’t hire me. I’m 40 years old and I think I’m ...

Pent-up, unresolved anger

Pent-up, unresolved anger I like to think that I have come far in my journey with stammering/stuttering - I push myself, I have a wide social circle, I finally was able to secure a graduate job in my ...

I often feel this way on the inside, when I am by myself. Maybe my advice will be "cringe" or not very useful. Actually, the thing that helps me to not feel like I lost something is to take that feeli...

Sorry dude. I’ve been in the same situation many times. I always just avoided saying the word or put “Uhhh” or “Ummm” in front of it. If you can’t avoid it, then tell your boss you literally cannot sa...

So sorry to hear that. I hope it gets better for you. You gotta live the life given to you and make the most of it that’s what I have learned....

I think that’s mostly because it takes being relaxed to laugh. So I think the other people might be more focused on worrying about you while you stutter. So you gotta stop worrying and that will let t...

This breaks my heart. I know exactly what you're talking about and I'm sure everyone else here does too. It's easy for me to say but I'll say it anyway because it's the truth: give yourself a break an...

In order to get rid of stuttering you must learn to hate the stutter not yourself. That is the key thing. You have to be able to look in the mirror and tell yourself that you love yourself, which is n...

Thanks for all the kind words! May you also do something inspite of fear for the next days ahead. We are in this together!...

I've felt the same way many times, I'm sorry you feel this way too. We can find comfort in knowing there are many of us out there, and lean on our family and friends for support. Just please, know th...

Accept and be comfortable with your stutter. It’s apart of you so you won’t ever fully get rid of it but you learn how to manage it. Next is just putting yourself in situations you normally wouldn’t i...

A little, it does feel a bit unfair sometimes and I began stuttering later in life seemingly out of nowhere so as silly as it sounds sometimes i make the joke that I'm 'cursed'. But it really does fee...

Treat yourself better than you treat everyone else

Treat yourself better than you treat everyone else Many of us are unforgiving to ourselves. "Our own worst critics" as it were. We'd never be as critical of someone else as we are of ourselves. STOP...

yea it is a gamble for sure...for some reason when I say fuck before saying something it comes out 99% good It is why I fucking curse all the time :)...

I somehow got myself out of it. But one of my friends is still depressed. I am trying to help him....

For me it means not being afraid to speak when I want to. But perhaps once I reach that point it could mean complete fluency. Seems that a lack of fear lends itself to more fluent and maybe even compl...

The same as you, I will do everything I can to be one of those who overcomed stuttering...

It’s just an exercise to make you less scared about speaking therefor have more fluency when you speak also gives you a chance to use the tools they taught you in a real life situation. I did it in my...
