i don't think it's comparable to those you listed (and they get mocked plenty too) but yeah i do wish it was more recognized as a disability and not just a quirk...

A nurse told me this. Lol. She said “wow u forgot ur name?! That’s crazy.” And laughing while signaling to her coworker. Also in college I had a teacher yell at me in front of the class because I took...

Do I understand that you trying to minimize the problem of stuttering because others have it worse? I think OP is jealous and have right of fake applause, fake tolerance of normal people. How can you ...

I agree. Also Minimal stutterers do NOT understand the suffering that comes with a severe stutter. Minimal people are still accepted as they are fluent but us we are laughed at or on the receiving end...

TW: Black Pill People don’t want to cure stuttering as they focus on the more troubling diseases/conditions like cancer, viral diseases, blindness, physical disabilities, deafness etc. So because we a...

Oh, I was that kid once! The only real memory I have of elementary school is my whole class yelling at me because they got mad at my stutter, lol. Everyone else has provided really excellent advice, e...

Not all kids are like that. I went through preschool, primary school, and high-school without any mocking or teasing. At least I wasn't, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who didn't have any problems ...

Part of it has to do with the general public not understanding that stuttering is in fact a disability just like down syndrome or cerebral palsy. I have been personally told that I "didn't" have to st...

My daughter stutters (as do I). One of the best things we ever did for her was to arrange for me to speak to her class each year of elementary school. I’d go in, talk about what stuttering is, talk ab...

I live in the UK, I sometimes get ppl making fun of my stutter, mostly ignorant pricks who think they are doing gods gift by mocking me, but I always put them in their place. (Unfortunately, my mum sa...

I get what you're saying, but I feel like you're really overgeneralizing. Sure, the self-pity and defeatism aren't helping anybody, and the frequency with which it appears here is frustrating. But...

Or if they ask how old you are I say 19 and they say did you forget how old you were NO BRYAN I HAVE A MAJOR STUTTER...

Oh this is a fun one. If they think their comment is witty and funny, I almost always use this as an opportunity to make them feel bad. I’ll fire back with something along the lines of “I stutter. Tha...

Happened before and it was really rude and he laughed in my face but then I quickly made him forget his name. My fists don't stutter......

Fuck people. And also let's be honest: a lot of users here say that they rarely meet people who stutter. So you know very well about stuttering because you stutter, but where can people get experience...

Many times. They often have a little laugh to themselves after saying it as though it's very witty. It used to be infuriating, now I just ignore it.....

When people say we should not challenge “poor me” attitudes about stuttering, they are basically saying we should let the bully win. If someone mocked you for your stutter, you would stand up for you...

Stuttering is nowhere near as bad as DS or Cerebral Palsy. Stuttering can be managed to be improved far easier than those genetic conditions, I think you need to take a long hard look at yourself, t...

I have no idea why you seem to assume (the majority of) stutterers are not working hard to make their lives better, when in fact they do desire for change. No one actually likes having a stutter. Sur...

DS and CP? Really? You think those are in any way comparable to stuttering? You're envious of the applause? If you want recognition, earn it. But don't expect it for simply showing up. Quit crying "...
