Good for you! For me, caffeine usually makes me feel good and talk faster. I still sometimes have a little trouble ordering at restaurants, but it's not a huge deal for me. Who cares anyway?...

What I've found about myself is that I actually stutter way less using voice chat in games than in real life interactions. This is likely to be because of much lower anxiety level....

I can't even say that part without stuttering. I get stuck on "stutter". One time I couldn't even say "speech problem" so I settled for "social issue" lol...

so good for you. i work in a power plant as a system engineer, last year i was resigned as a head of 18 person team. every workday i must talk a lot, but i am a stutter, lol. i doubted they can under...

Hahah yeah don't worry. I do my share of socializing. I'm lucky my stutter isn't too bad when I'm in a comfortable environment. It's the anxiety that makes it worse. I studied marine science in scho...

I work in a small marine botany research lab for the state. Most of what I do is lab work alone, so I've lucked out with not having to talk a lot. Mostly I listen to podcasts. ...

Ironically, when I get stuck on something, I USUALLY can still say other things and speak just fine, such as addressing the fact that I can't get out what I WANT to say....

Literally the only time I feel 100% comfortable stuttering is when I'm telling someone I stutter so they see what I deal with. If it's a bad one just go with the flow. By the time you get the point ac...

If you're blocking, you could go into your block enough that it becomes obvious and then say something like "you know what was?" Or " you see that I have a speech impediment, or fluency issue, etc"...

You could use hand gestures/signals to indicate something is wrong. I do that sometimes, to show I'm still working on the delivery....

That's the attitude to have. Next time you are struggling instead of hanging up just say something like "Please bear with me as I stutter and the phone can be a but difficult for me." I noticed someth...

Appreciate the advice and I'm glad that everything is going well for you at your new job! I do agree that practice makes perfect. I'm going to call back tomorrow and try not to even think about it. ...

You're still running away. This gives temporary relief but now your anxiety is going to build up anticipating talking on the phone again. The only way to break the cycle is to stop running.... stop av...

Its strange, but I was actually more social as a kid than I am now (at age 26). I guess when I was younger I really didn't care as much about the fact that I had a stutter. Now I basically have to f...

Did you leave your house a lot as a kid?

Did you leave your house a lot as a kid? I always felt locked up in my hoise because if I went outside I was scared of having to talk to someone, and not having too many friends made it really hard to...

Good on you. I was stuttering like a beast at Subway yesterday. I told the lady I'm having trouble speaking right now and she figured out what I wanted. If you do things with a big smile and good atti...

Sadly, Avoiding it will always make it worse. I always feel ashamed of myself for stuttering at work but the people I talk to 99% of the time just stand there and wait for me to finish and don't react...

I wish I would have the balls to do that and it doesn't exactly help that my stutter consists of mostly blocks that I avoid without even thinking about it. My avoidance is on another fucking level I s...

I've started trying that myself. Owning up to it has gone a long way to helping through those blocks. ...

Being upfront about your stutter

Being upfront about your stutter So I just started university recently and my stutter is at its worst right now, mostly due to stress and anxiety and all that. But I've recently been trying out annou...
