Most of the time when I tell someone it makes things so much more comfortable. Occasionally the person will look at me with pitty and talk to me like a child, I forgive them for being ignorant that st...

Although you're worried you might be looked down upon, there are actually studies done that show it has the opposite effect on people - they'll respect you more and think you're more confident! Check ...

Are we not allowed any respite from the intolerance of others? Is it such a bad thing to have one little corner where we don't have to deal with the anxiety of this? Isn't that what support groups are...

Perhaps. That approach may have worked for you but not everyone is at that step and that approach may not work for them. The sub should be safe and inviting to others. As another commenter here menti...

One person's mild is the next person's debilitating problem. Try to have a bit more empathy for others. Your comment is condescending and judgemental for no reason. It's just a question. No need to ...

Does anyone else find the "Welcome to /r/Sssssstutter!" in the sidebar a bit triggering?

Does anyone else find the "Welcome to /r/Sssssstutter!" in the sidebar a bit triggering? I know it's meant to make us all relax about this but I've had too many situations in my life where people have...

That sucks. I hope you know your tribe is here and I’m glad you found us. Have you found support irl?...

Though I can't suggest any tips as I, myself, been in that situation and to be honest, we don't have any other option other then accepting the stammering, and moving on. If you need someone to talk, I...

Damn man. I’m so sorry. What a bitch. But it’s good that you told her that you stutter and that she apologized later....

Don't worry about your sister, she most likely doesn't understand and is quick to judge. I've been blessed to have many supporters in everything I do (and VERY nice bosses :). I'm so glad you're in a ...

This is amazing! People have said to me that my stutter is cute but I have always struggled to believe it. Anyway,the first time I met a person who stutters (a whole group, actually) it was such a l...

I love your positivity about it. Whenever I meet someone who reacts kindly to me struggling to say a word it's so reassuring. And it usually it takes a long time to cultivate a friendship to the point...

Met someone with a stutter for the first time in my life today!

Met someone with a stutter for the first time in my life today! A professional fraternity I’m in decided to join a coed indoor soccer league and field a team. I met one of my teammates and managed to ...

Sounds like you're in the high school phase. I've been through there. Middle to high school was the worst time for me. Once I was out of high school, not a single person impersonated me. As you and p...

This is tough - your client is a little boy, and that's very different from treating an adult who has probably stuttered for 20+ years. I think your best bet is to try to boost his self esteem and jus...

Yes, exactly! It a nice knowing people with similar experiences. I don’t know any stutterers in my daily life. ...

To have patience and to show that you listen comfortably no matter how long it takes is gold to a stutterer, at least me. I almost take it as a little insult to have words finished off by others. I kn...

Yeah, there's always some people who won't make fun, instead they help. Your post remind a incident happened in my first semester during viva exam. We had a chemistry Viva exam and our professor was a...

I was yet to encounter someone like this. I always seem to encounter people that have never experience or even heard of stuttering. I only recently met someone that said they actually enjoy my stutter...

This guy just made my night Just wanted to share a story because it really made my night. I was playing pool with a buddy at a bar and I was wearing a college shirt. A stranger comes up and tells me t...
