All the best of luck with your interview! I always start off by saying “I wanted to inform you that I stutter. At any given time you don’t understand me, please feel free to stop me and ask me to repe...

don't give up!! I understand and relate but you deserve to exist and thrive in professional environments while stuttering -- having a stutter doesn't make you any less of a great person and great empl...

Happens a lot. Just try to keep working on shifting perspective. It’s okay to block and it’s okay for that kinda shit to happen. That guy will forget about it in an hour, now you have to learn how to ...

If you have long silent blocks with eye contact avoidance and frequent word switching, you will struggle immensely to connect to customers. If you have repetitions that smoothly transition to your ne...

It’s rough, but I get by. The other person gotta just deal with it too if they need something done....

Most stutterers are in fact very similar. Otherwise, why are we all struggling saying our names and out food orders?? Of course it takes consistency. I never said it does not. I never suggested y...

Just a suggestion , we all here already feel pretty bad about ourselves so let's just try to avoid words like 'worse' ik what you intended but it just comes off as a bit problematic as a fellow stutte...

If your therapy isn’t transferable outside of the sessions , it’s not quality therapy and has not addressed the actual issues. The problem isn’t US. The problem is that if you have blocks based on fea...

She’s very bright and while I’ve been told to just “ignore” the stutter basically, me and her have had lots of conversations about the stutter. If told, she can say the sentence again without the stut...

>she said “I like my stutter.” As a parent (I stutter and my child has a stutter and other speech impediments), I think the most important thing we can do is tell our child that it's ok to stutter. ...

Turn it into a joke. Tell her something funny like "oh I'm sorry I'm speaking like I'm having a rock in my mouth" or "I'm trying to stop it but I can't, maybe my tongue is doing dancing all on its own...

Like I could've said the funniest shit ever but if they ask me to repeat myself, sorry buddy, that ain't happening. If you missed out, you missed out 🤷‍♀️😅...

Easier said that done, but ask her how she feels about the stuttering. And don't be afraid to be honest about how it makes you feel when talking on the phone. If it's clear that the stuttering i...

Basically, if you're calling out my stutter as an adult, I've already learned all I need to know about you and I can go on knowing you're not worth shit, and letting others know how I know....

The whole 'you forgot your name?' Thing is so tiring. I used to not correct because I didn't want someone to feel bad because usually it's not done maliciously and they don't know that I've a stutter....

Heya! First of all, thank you for caring and asking! I can give you my perspectives but keep in mind that I'm traumatized and some of my statements can potentially sound a bit ...weird. I'll try my be...

I had a guy I work with belittle and criticize me one day for getting stuck on my last name. I told him that he has to deal with it for 5 minutes a day while I have to deal with 24/7 for the rest of m...

Called out a guy who laughed at me today.

Called out a guy who laughed at me today. Felt pretty powerful for this one. I work at a rock climbing course at a university, and my marketing manager brought the student board people to do a promo ...

I show that it doesn't make me laugh (only with a face like this 😐, I don't say anything) and then I continue what I was saying. NOBODY on this earth will ashame me about my stuttering....

I'm super sorry to hear that. You're definitely not being too sensitive at all and I think you're handling it the best you can. I'd probably do the same. If they don't want to listen to how their acti...
