I really think this is a really important question. I'm pretty satisfied in my self-acceptance. I still stutter, I acknowledge when I stutter, I occasionally get frustrated by stuttering. But I accep...

you're avoiding facing your fear head on and using a workaround which is avoiding. A lot of PWS do avoid and it only reinforces the fear they have in stuttering. Tricks and workaround dont give you ...

Yes, it can be seen as an avoidance behavior although I personally tend to rather see it as a workaround. You're not avoiding the situation, you're using technology to your advantage to get involved ...

what's your opinion on this?

what's your opinion on this? i stutter a lot on the letter R, mostly get blocked and can't say the word. keeping that in mind, people who are born with lisps can't say certain words properly either, b...

Yeah, I know what you mean: I used to think that way and it will probably comes with shame for me too... However, I sort of am changing mindsets now because the situation is that I have to make calls...

Do whatever works for you, but for me the shame of having to use a soundboard of myself would far surpass that of blocking for some reason. I'm having a hard time "coming out" in my daily life as well...

I personally strengthened a lot of my beliefs in what I need to do to get what i want. My goal is definitely not fluency, it's not even effective communication so much. I think I know how to communica...

1. Stuttering has made me less compassionate. It has really shown me how shitty people generally are. 2. I live in an area where there are no stuttering support groups. Only met one stutterer in my l...

I once dated a girl who confessed during our brief relationship that she thought my stutter was "cute". I'm pretty sure she was into "different" kinds of guys. She would always bring it up and stare a...

I think this is a really important question that I think gets to one of the roots of why so many of us struggle. I've been trying to answer this question for a while now and though im getting closer, ...

hi, guys! (and girls!) Anyone had trouble with regrown tonsil?

hi, guys! (and girls!) Anyone had trouble with regrown tonsil? My tonsil regrew like 2-3 years ago, and I was so overwhelmed by moving cost, and other costs that I couldn't have a surgery yet. Anyon...

Very good. I like the part about him speaking about not being assertive and being a perfectionist. I'm like that too. On the outside I feel confident but deep down I know I am definitely not. I don...

I was bored so I decided to write a little poem about the effects of stuttering, enjoy.

I was bored so I decided to write a little poem about the effects of stuttering, enjoy. Some say it's easier said than done, However for a select few its easier done than said, I'd rather do the tas...

same thing with me. I dont think you can forgot about stuttering. Trying to forget or focusing on forgetting will only remind you there is something you should be forgetting, and thus you'll remember....

i totally see what you are saying, but yoiu must acknowledge the insecurities that dwell within a stutterer, when you see a girl you like, you want the best for them and sometimes you think that isn't...

I hate the word 'interview' - a very minor rant

I hate the word 'interview' - a very minor rant So I had a job interview today and for the most part my stammer wasn't present or I hid it well enough. Except for when I had to tell the guy behind the...

This is so true, but it's very difficult to do. I personally fear it, because of the embarrassment that comes with it. Perhaps it's from the students that used to laugh at me during class. I dunno. If...

Why stuttering is more of a problem than just the talking aspect and why it is underrated as a problem

Why stuttering is more of a problem than just the talking aspect and why it is underrated as a problem So not many people know that I stutter. Funnily enough I went through years of school without man...

I have been in this situation, but instead I was just stuttering like crazy and it made a bad impression; I almost felt like the interviewer thought I was on something or just hung over or something. ...

I'm right there with you, friend. I'm four months shy of my 30th birthday. Have been in one form or another of speech therapy since I was 5. My stutter too, is so severe it can take me upwards of te...
