1. You know all those daydreams and fantasies you have of being completely fluent, which makes you suddenly all suave and awesome, and then you ride off into the sunset on a dragon while perfectly rec...

Help with my situation - can't get a job, afraid I can't get a boyfriend, have no friends and so lost and confused with my thoughts Hi all. Thanks for reading and replying in advanced. Looking for new...

Today I found out my boss can listen to my calls

Today I found out my boss can listen to my calls After I answered and redirected a call to our store my boss called me and told me how I could have said something better and told me how I could have a...

In my job function, I can't stay quiet. So no, I wouldn't say that my stutter makes me quiet. It simply fails to be able to have that effect. I don't stay quiet in social situations either....

I think about it pretty often. I think i would be quiet even without a stutter. I've had a stutter since i was 6-7 years old, it got a bit better over the years and now it's a mild one. I rarely stutt...

I did not speak at all in high school. Now I am 46. If I am having a bad fluency day, I won’t contribute to convos unless I have to....

Yeah, my husband didn't even BELIEVE me at first when we finally had a conversation about my stuttering. He genuinely hadn't noticed, even though I was struggling so hard to get a particular word out ...

I have recovered from stuttering 100%. Stuttering had held me back, but only because managing my speech was draining my energy and focus....

That’s very true, I usually only do it in one off encounters with work-staff who are on the clock or are pressed for time in some other way. I used to do this for strangers/friends in social settings ...

I’ve been much more comfortable with stuttering once I just told people I stutter. My stutter is unique in that it consistently pops up in situations where I’m ordering from a restaurant, and like pre...

I'm usually the one helping others here but today I felt truly defeated. I can't take this.

I'm usually the one helping others here but today I felt truly defeated. I can't take this. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm usually the one helping other stutterers out and giving them advice. I ...

I have a good handful of close friends (and many acquaintances) but I only discuss personal matters with them through text. I could hold longer conversations that way, and I do trust my friends/feel c...

Complete vocal block comes and goes

Complete vocal block comes and goes Hi everyone I'm new to this sub but suffered from a vocal block for years, it goes sometimes but comes when I'm anxious and get worried about it (a lot of the time)...

I had your EXACT problem a few years ago. Company name started with a blocker sound, 'C', it was an acronym so pronounced 'See'. S is a block for me. Several excruciating phone calls 'hello I'm cal...

I feel ya! I was known as the girl who never spoke when I was in high school. I got bullied so much for my stutter that I just stopped talking. However, I am 46 now and things do get better, as ev...

Yes, this. Things aren't as poetic and dramatic in reality as what we imagine. Humility tends to go a long way too whether we want it to or not. In classroom settings people would assume I'm smart bec...

The only ONE

The only ONE I am very open about stuttering. I am confident about my stutter and carry this as a pride. I am not afraid or ashamed to speak in front of people, ordering food or talking over the phone...

I just found this sub and I've never been more happy [Vent]

I just found this sub and I've never been more happy [Vent] To find a place where you won't be judged for having a stutter is amazing. I recently developed it (in the last year or two) and it's so rou...

I saw myself when i was reading your post. I can definitely relate with you. My stutter is mild and i don't think i have moments when it's worst (ofc the ones when i'm under pressure) , it just happe...

That lines up with my experience of the one girl I know in real life who stutters. I'll talk to her for five minutes and then wonder how I got to know her and I'll be like oh right she stutters. She's...
