Somewhat similar to me, but I feel like me being extraverted and also a PwS is a big factor, as I talk a lot, and thus also stutter a lot lol...

For awhile I was considering learning sign language and masquerading as a deaf person to avoid speaking. Ultimately, I realized that would be insensitive to those that are actually deaf , so I discard...

I've been in the USAF for 15 years, and I've stuttered for all of them. It's true that they're unofficially disqualified from communications-heavy MOS's/AFSC's, but honestly those are relatively few ...

It amazes me how often non-stutterers mix it up and think that social anxiety causes a stutter. I feel like it’s a common misconception of us. It’s not the anxiety that makes us stutter, it’s the stut...

Stuttering indeed takes up a huge amount of the time I spend thinking about stuff and it's quite sad how us stuttering people think it as the end of the world while most other people don't care, I don...

Stutters are unique for everyone, for me it's major but it maybe different for someone else....

First off. I would say not to worry about your fluency. I never have, and if they have an issue with it you don't want to work there anyways. You provide value and are worth every cent. As for breaki...

There are different severities of stuttering. A more impactful stutter often means a more damaged sense of self. People who have spent their life feeling inferior need more than just “you can do it!...

Well I’m a woman who stutters and I’m not timid at all. In fact, quite the opposite. I am very social and always talk and say what I want. My attitude- still hey can just wait....

I work in the medical field where I talk to patients, doctors, nurses, etc all day. Years of speech therapy have provided me with tools to help my fluency, but still I have good speech days, and I hav...

I completely understand you wanting to pick a field that requires little interaction with people. However, it's super important to pick something you will enjoy! Life is short, and you don't wanna be ...

Manager at a vet clinic. Funny enough I went to school for zoology, wanting to work in the lab and researching animals because like you, I didn’t want to talk to people. Took another path post grad,...

Update

Update I noticed something. I’ve realised that I put on a higher voice with people that I stutter with. I just went into a shop to get vape liquid and I noticed that I put on a higher voice. The sam...

So I’m 23m, I’ve dated a number of women and obviously the topic of my stutter comes up. They’ve all said “aw it’s cute” or some variation of that. But I really think, that most people don’t understan...

I have been there and I didn’t have to tell anyone as they could detect it. In the 70’s no girl would date me because of my stutter. I was 24 before I got a first date. But keep this guy as he unde...

Hi there. I think we can pretty much all relate to what you are pondering. The desire to be accepted and valued for who you are. A key message on Reddit has been stammering is part of who you are, not...

There's nothing wrong with stuttering. Most good/reasonable people do not think any less of a person that stutters. If you're cool and confident about it, most other people are cool with it as well. T...

Trust is fundamental to a relationship. Do you trust him? Respect is also fundamental. Respect yourself. If someone thinks less of you for your speech impediment, that's their failing. Not yours. So...

Lol, I like your response. There is a bit of cynicism on my part. I’m not saying I would be a hell of a lot greater than I am and had much better opportunities without my stutter, but it sure hasn’t h...

Sorry for the rash comment but to be real its seems like your ego or at least the way you view yourself is fucked. I just make situations entertaining instead of making it awkward and strange because ...
