I think the main thing for me is just to think that it will happen, so there is no use in fearing it. I also like to think that it makes me unique from most people....

I agree it's matter of mindset. If you keep thinking about it you are just overthinking all the ways it could go wrong. For me what seems to work is that I just don't care about 99% of the people who ...

Spend time with others who stutter. If you’re in the US, find a nearby chapter of the National Stuttering Association. If you’re outside of the US or there are no groups near you, there are online mee...

Last month I presented online in front of 200+ people. I was asked to cover for my manager in an all-hands meeting in front of the entire company. I had a choice. I could have easily said that I don...

Mines the same as you. I have a baseline level of stutter that I've never gotten below but when I notice my stutter is worse then usual. Even if I don't think I'm feeling especially anxious. I must ta...

What kind of mentality should I have? Every time I stutter, I hate myself. I feel super tired after like I need a lie down and need to cry and I feel tired of life. I’ve heard people say ‘the more you...

Personally I don’t think a stammer is something many people will have ‘learnt to love’ however I am personally on a journey to accepting that my stammer is something I will always have to some degree ...

Anonymous survey for people who stammer – building a private app (3 mins) Hi everyone I’m someone who stammers and I’m building a small app called “Speak Anyway”. It’s not therapy and not a fluency a...

Hey, I really feel this. You’re not a fool at all work meetings (especially in-person with lots of people) are brutal for stuttering. The anticipation and being watched makes everything 10x worse, it...

A minute before you start speaking, look at the people you’ll be talking to and honestly ask yourself: who am I truly afraid of? Then you’ll notice the little miracle that happens with your voice....

I don't like the word 'cure' because it's really vague and implies being 100% rid of your stutter. I think the goal for most is getting it down to a very low spm (stutters per minute) rate. My dad had...

Meetings used to stress me out too in a similar way to what you’re describing when I was younger (I’m 38, so it’s not like I’m old lol). I’d be worried that I’d embarrass myself or people wouldn’t tak...
