I’m not a PWS, just a mom. Feel free to take my words with a grain of salt. I don’t have the btdt experience. Talk to the dean, talk to the professor. Offer to do the presentation twice- once just i...

I went to the NSA conference in Dallas last year. It was so interesting to meet so many stutterers. What was ironic was most of the people there said their stutter was worse being around other stutter...

I don't stutter. A friend who does once set me this challenge. It's the first and only moment I've been really able to imagine how it feels, even for an instant. Because, like your wife, the challenge...

Put yourself in their shoes. Stuttering is awkward and weird. Fluent people will never understand so you cannot express contempt for them attempting to deal with an awkward situation. I've come to rea...

Our friends to help us through the moments are the best thing we can have, I understand how frustration and disappointing that can be...

You can always start with a signing of “me too” or start off with your disclosure. Reverse it- if you met a fellow PWS and you thought they were making fun of you I’m sure you’d figure it out in a f...

I've never "naturally" met a person who stutters before I joined the National Stuttering Association. As /u/ziggyjoe212 mentioned, you should check out the NSA. It was completely life changing for me....

I feel that. Never watched the King's Speech (although I've heard it's fantastic) because it really hurt me to see him struggle in the trailers. I think stutterers just feel connected with other stutt...

Are you in the USA? If so, go to your local NSA (National Stuttering Association) meeting. You'll meet other people who stutter and you can share your experiences, offer support, it just converse abou...

How great would it be if you naturally met another stutterer?

How great would it be if you naturally met another stutterer? Like going to a class in college and having another person in class who stutters as bad as you do? Idk if its just me but like, it would f...

Also saved for the days that I just feel down and out. Thank you for sharing your tips and, giving me hope in myself. Thank you for showing me that stuttering does not hold me back from achieving what...

haha good to hear. It's nice knowing other people go though this shit. thanks for sharing man. oh, and nice job getting to second base on the first date 😂😂👀...

Very good comparison with stutter and fear! Never thought of it that way - you’re an inspiration...

No feedback. Just want to let you know I read it. It’s tough to adjust if you’re not aware and able to anticipate it. You are not alone ...

I agree. Join a stuttering support group. You are not alone and there are groups of people who don’t judge. You don’t have to hide. Your stutter can become a source of strength, not shame. ...

Where do you live? There are stuttering support groups all over the US that have local meetings. They are a great way to meet and chat with other people who stutter. It’s great fun actually and a safe...

I’ve stuttered throughout my whole life, and while it has gotten better since high school, I still have issues, especially during those stupid classroom introductions. I still have people who laugh in...

Thanks so much for the kind words and thank you for watching! And thanks for sharing it with your class!...

Thanks so much for the kind words and thank you for watching! I'm glad you could relate. Thanks for sharing it!...

I had a conversation with a close friend about this once when I was really struggling with my self confidence. He said “you will meet plenty of people who have no patience for your stutter. That’s j...
