It’s so important to have supportive co-workers. For the first time in my career, I feel accepted by my peers. It feels amazing....

I work on policy and lobby from time to time on policies supporting local and ethnic media in California. My job involves facilitating small groups, which can be very difficult with a stutter. So much...

I won't lie, at first it was intimadating, which resulted in my stutter worsening. However, with time & experience, I now have more confidence in my nursing skills & my relationships with my f...

Great you are doing so well. I'm a recovered stutterer who only became fluent at age 70! Nevertheless, I married well, raised great children, and maintained a happy, successful marriage to a wonderful...

Yeah I'm now letting interviewers know that I stutter over email. And I'm starting to not be ashamed if I'm facing a block. I'll just take a breath, slow down and repeat myself. It'll be a long proces...

Thank you. I'm learning that what messes me up in interviews is trying not to stutter by thinking about how to say each word properly. I'll try to get into the habit of trying not to think about it. I...

Been there, and have done that. Its OK to say "man, that sucked!" as long as you don't stay in that space. Take a look at what you could improve on and never be afraid to try again. Also, didn't Jam...

I thing it's the half of success if you can force yourself to approach people and say something despite on stuttering. When I read stories of former stutterers who got rid of this I mostly see that th...

It's annoying that it takes time to make our point, using exactly the words we would really like to use. But regardless of people's reactions to our stutter, the reality is it comes off as endearing a...

Good. Everything makes sense when viewed through a humorous lens. And if you can’t laugh at yourself life is going to be one hell of an arduously slough....

Stuttering people can more than almost everybody else appreciate solitude and appeasement...

That is so true. Self-acceptance is the first step to reducing social anxiety. If I‘d waited to have a life until I finally became fluent at 70, I’d have missed out on my entire education, marriage, ...

I think many young stutterers are struggling with the pain of stuttering and feeling so uncertain of their future. How can I be taken seriously when I stutter? Will I ever find companionship? If I...

Stuttering use to hold me back from being myself until I accepted my stutter and starting not giving a shit what people thought about me and stutter. Cause I’m a pretty animated goofy guy and I want t...

I think what people have been trying to tell you is that you can stutter and have a good life. My husband stutters severely and I know it makes a lot of things hard for him, and that sucks. But he has...

It's hard to forget the pain and embarrassment. I became fully fluent 5 years ago and have almost forgotten the 65 years of suffering. I do have the normal dysfluencies of everyone else and worry that...

Being comfortable with yourself as a person who stutters takes time and a lot of work. It isn't something that you can just "choose" to feel better about. I didn't really start to feel ok about mysel...

I wouldn't listen to Mort too much. He has no standing in the stuttering community....

I think nihilism is part of the journey for some and we should have a place for it. Maybe the sub could make use of flair to filter content? And also trust a poster will tag their post correctly of co...
