I used to create webpages for women I liked. They were meme-like and designed to elicit a response. And in general... Don't be unattractive. Find a way to express yourself via fashion. Get clean. Mak...

Awful few weeks - I'm done!!

Awful few weeks - I'm done!! So I have officially had enough with my stammer. I've had it since I was 4 yrs old and I had it under control until I started my new job, 4 months ago. For years, I h...

Speech Issue

Speech Issue Hi For all my life speaking is more of a chore to me, than it should be. I have to really think what I want to say, and prepare myself to say it. Sometimes I can't get out the word I wan...

Maybe, maybe not. What if they're laughing about your hair? Try to view stuff like behind the back gossip as just that. I do the same thing, I think 'we' tend to put MUCH more focus on other people'...

No matter what you do -- stutter, no stutter, breathe funny, look funny, smell funny, dress funny -- people will be people and will sometimes talk. Those that feel so little of themselves that they ne...

I have to agree with the other commenters. There’s no doubt some people who are going to laugh at your stutter. That idea used to really bother me too, but you have to remind yourself that in the gr...

Absolutely. A former co-worker could not do his Rs and another co-worker made fun of him behind his back, ergo, she makes fun of me. Do I care? I am 47 so nope!...

People can do all sorts of things behind your back regardless of whether you're a stutter or not. Or they can not do anything at all. There's really no point in worrying about that sort of thing. :)...

It is! But the thing is that people don't care about your stutter nearly as much as you do. We work it up in our heads that we carry the weight of the world with us through our stutter, but others don...

I'm the same way. I have a tiny voice in my head, "Damnit, I was fluent during the first time!"...

My GOAT coping mechanism got ruined by a friend (which I know that he didn't intended to make me feel bad about it). I have a hard time explaining things to people without stuttering, especially if...

I have quite the vivid memories from years ago of me stuttering publicly with people reacting weird about it, so I'm not the person to ask for help in this case. What I can say is that, you're not a...

Hi there, I really hope you feel better soon. I've battled anxiety about my stutter for soooooo long. I went to college and wondered if I'd really ever find a job. Who would want someone who stutters ...

That’s the way I felt at your age. Sort of the way I feel now. I’m 50. I like the way you expressed the desperation but also the sprinkling of LOLs like “Wtf why me it’s so bassackwards retarded it...

Preparing what I say ahead of time. Exhausting - so I stop this practice at the end of the day with family. Switch words. Having stuttering has been a blessing for my vocabulary - although I consider...

I say don’t say anything and just deal with it. I have a mild stutter too and have often contemplated telling people at my new jobs about it but I never do and things always turn out fine. People get ...

Is it worth telling boss or just deal with it?

Is it worth telling boss or just deal with it? Just got a job at a nonprofit in DC area. I'm almost 24 and have had professional jobs before but this is the first time I will have calls coming in to ...

This is me, too. I stutter horribly around family but I don’t have the societal pressures....

I stutter more around my family because I let my guard down. I’m relaxed. Do not really want to use my speech tools with them like I feel I must in the world out there. It’s my natural state....

I think I stutter more because I try even harder to hide it from them, making it worse. None of my relatives know I have a stutter (or at least I think lol). ...
