What’s your job & how did you get it? I’m a new graduate currently interviewing for a professional job that requires a lot of talking. I’m feeling so defeated because I know my stutter and blocking i...

Yes, I’ve felt the same. My stutter makes me feel like I lose authority, and it limits how firmly I can insist on or persuade others about decisions that benefit my goals. I know I’m smart and sharp -...

Any physicians?

Any physicians? Would love to chit chat with one of you. I’m starting paramedic school in Jan, and aim to begin Medical school (hopefully) in Late 2026 or early 2027. Want to gauge your experiences...

I stuttered in all my interviews for technical roles and I still ended up getting the job offer in the end. I always request zoom/video interviews as I find I stutter less in those...although most rol...

This post literally saved my life. Things have been incredibly difficult with my stutter in the past few years. I’ve lost my job and can’t get a new one because I bomb all my interviews. Even though I...

There are definitely double standards for both men and women in dating/life in general but in my experience mild stuttering in girls isn't looked down as much as stuttering in men where its strongly a...

i felt like this in my teens. Getting a job that required me to communicate even if i stuttered, helped. I went from a janitor/custodian, to housekeeping supervisor, and now I work as an IT Tech going...

I needed this. I just started my dream job on Monday and I’m part of a team of 60 people so I’m still meeting them as I get through the week and I’ve stuttered pretty badly in front of majority of the...

For sure, I can understand that for me it’s more of a blocking than a stutter for me. To each his own though. It sucks for us all. I tend to keep to myself because of it. I just got a job doing custom...

Yo man don’t worry about girls, they will come for sure. Worry about Nursing school and get that bag. Nursing is dominated by woman. Keep going TRUST...

Look, I have a bad stutter (blocks). I’ve had many nights where I cried myself to sleep cause of how many opportunities I didn’t take cause of my stutter. However I never tried to let that affect my ...

On a scale of one to ten how bad are we talking? Mine is about a one, but what holds me back is my confidence. Stuttering has robbed me of that even though I barely stutter now. I have what you might ...
