I'm so sorry to hear this is happening at the hands of your own family. Unfortunately, you did right by you to cut ties…...

Like, if in US your local counseling center might offer IOP services which I don't think you NEED a mandatory 72hr stay to be referred. Sometimes these are for people discharged from psych or detox so...

Lol it's funny one of the retail jobs I had put out a pro diversity as that I saw many times I got mad and wrote them and was like "where was this a few years ago guys?" They did send me an email that...

That’s bullshit, I’m sorry that’s been your experience. I haven’t had to do any interviews since acquiring my fun stutter (lol, it’s lame af and disfluencies present in every word basically, sups cool...

If the books/meetings helped you, that’s great! No disrespect to that community either. Just stating what I saw from my experience when I almost bought the books looking for a ‘cure’. Tons of people h...

Someone legit unfriended me in real life because I said this about someone who was illegally discriminating against me at work and set me up to get fired.  She was awful to everyone and trying for a...

I don’t usually say this..but anyone who makes fun of us should be reborn with stuttering in their next life. Then they will know how it feels....

Usually I just make an expression like they burped in my face, pause and say "anyway.... I have a speech impediment" and keep talking.  The looks I get are healing to me haaaa good be uncomfortable!...

I tell the truth. I tell them that it's because I stutter, and they usually get a bit embarrassed about it and apologize....

I love to rub it in peoples face right after I’m mocked that I stutter. They should feel bad....

Yeah that’s totally fair. I guess it depends what kind of interaction you’re talking about. If you’re talking about someone who’s maliciously and intentionally making fun of you, then by all means s...

I haven't had someone laugh at my stutter in years. But if someone did I would just look at them and shake my head....

I don't feel it adds bad emotions. I feel good when I disclose I stutter. I've also earned the right to add a bit to the sting. After the little addition, it’s business as usual. I see this disclosure...

If you feel comfortable saying that and you feel you need to say that for your own sanity, then I’m not going to argue with you. For myself I’ve found life turns out better if you don’t antagonize peo...

I believe in you! It’s never going to be easy for us, but I’m starting to learn that how you treat your stutter ends up being a reflection of how others treat you FOR stuttering. If you advocate for y...

It would suck if stuttering happens when you do the callback 😭 . Anyways jokes aside. IMHO there is no point in calling people out. If they make fun of you be the bigger person and move on. Don’t d...

Depends on their intentions. The most likely response is "With me it's fine because I'm secure enough about it but never do this because most stutters aren't in a good mental space." If it's outrigh...

Depends on who it is. If it’s a friend, I don’t make it a big deal and just say to don’t do that. If it’s a colleague, I say that’s unprofessional and inappropriate. If it’s a stranger, I go on my way...

Look at them like they just made the dumbest most obvious joke and say. Really. In a very judgmental way. I'm not saying it works well. I only used it a few times, and i just walked away. It's kind of...

I probably shouldn’t say this, but..

I probably shouldn’t say this, but.. When people say they feel bad after the disclosure that I stutter (I tell them after they’ve mimicked me or joke about me forgetting something), I say “Good”🥰 or ...
