I have a 13 year old and his stuttering is mild to severe. So very proud of him. He gets services through school and they encourage him to own his stuttering. Advocate for himself and educate prone. M...

Wasn't intending to then we did. It's amazing. It's hard and impossible and the best thing. He did stutter quite a bit as a toddler but things have come a long way since I was a kid. He's 100% perfect...

Hmm yeah that's a good idea but I don't have any people who stutter like me in my family or a seperate community only dedicated to stuttering people. I only have online communities like reddit and quo...

Montreal Conference

Montreal Conference Hey everyone! For anyone who was at the Connecting Voices Conference hosted by the Canadian Stuttering Association this past weekend, I was thinking about creating a Discord, Slack...

Maybe the best thing would be talking to other stutterers, so you don't feel so isolated, just a thought....

I’m 17 as well. At this point everyone knows I stutter so I have friends bc although I still shy away from speaking up in class, I just stutter freely when talking to other kids...

Dude, I have dozens of friends who stutter, all of whom I enjoy talking to - I don’t care how long it takes them to get their words out...

Let me add my 2 cents. I wasted 35 years of fearing embarrassment, having shame, guilt, etc..... I was isolated for 10 years until I made the conscious effort to not give a s***. Once I did that, t...

I think you gotta search the other lonely kids and sit with them. they may not stutter but they may suffer from severe anxiety and other stuff making it difficult for them to talk....

I gotta disagree, if you got people around you like family and friends who genuinely want to hear what you have to say, your stutter becomes very minimal to them or they don’t care at all. To me whene...

I know accepting your stutter sounds like bullshit but trust us it’s true. Once you accept that it’s a part of you, you truly stop caring about negative opinions from others on your stutter because th...

Others have already written pretty much anything I'd have written. One thing that wasn't mentioned, I can really recommend joining your local stuttering self-help group, having others who are going th...

I still have this fear and I'm 29. Back in high school and middle school, was much worse than it is now and I'd have to stomp my feet or rock my body in a rhythm to get words out in class, it was pret...

I'm 32, and have lived with my stutter since I was 6. I like to think I have a decent amount of life experience with it! The *only* answer is that you need to accept that you have a stutter. This wil...

21 here. I’ve been part of high school and college golf teams so I’ve been fortunate enough to have a built-in friend group. My recs are to find a group of friends who you share an interest with, don’...

didn’t have actual friends till the age of 19 when i dropped all the “caring what others think” BS. growing up with a stutter it was actually super hard to make friends but i believe the embarrassment...

I stutter from time to time and I feel awkward talking to other people who stutter. I am like you can’t understand me and I can’t understand you 😆😆😆 Fk this shit hahahaha Comedy of errors....

19yrs old. Studying in the university and have 0 friends there, the only ones I have are in the other country...

That is awesome to hear! I still do this day to remember everything about my first NSA Conference 30 years ago. It was a very emotional experience for me, and hopefully for you as well. The only pie...

true. it's been about 2 months since college, and I've barely have anyone to talk to. it's not just about having friends, even if someone approaches me, it's tough to continue the conversation for me ...
