I don't stutter myself, but I've been interested in it forever. It's one of the biggest medical mysteries. What I do know is, there are plenty of people who are confident despite their stutter, and mo...

> Like is it okay that if I know what she is trying to say, is it okay to finish the sentence for her? For me personally, that would just piss me off. If it's someone I don't know doing it, I prob...

Treat her like you would anyone else. You know, being patient and respectful. You said in another reply that you feel bad and want to help her. Thank you for the compassion, but we don't need to be pa...

Thank you. I just don't want to help make people feel crappy. I would feel weird though, saying, "hey, I noticed you stutter. How can I not be an ass to you when that happens?"...

Best thing to do is ask, main thing is try not to pull any awkward faces, try and stay neutral, don't look away just like you would with any other conversation with anyone else! But yes just ask what...

Pm me, I'm 20 with a stutter and would love to talk ...

We could've been born with a terminal illness instead. We could've been born without legs, arms, or hands.. We were dealt a shitty card, but there are some people who do not even get a chance to expe...

Then they suck and can’t empathize. Send them my way and I can be Mama Bear for you. Gah. To echo what others have said stuttering let’s you know right off the bat who the assholes in Life are. You ...

Yes it sucks and you are not alone. You have a voice and what you say matters. Who you are matters. I know you have to find your way through. It sucks and it’s painful. But it’s worth it. Because ...

We all go through this OP, you are not alone. No matter your age you will always come back to think of this but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Just this past May I started working at a gre...

Usually we are not allowed by society to complain about our disability. This is a safe place for us to express our frustration. I am very happy in my life but it's still nice to vent here to the only ...

Oh, and I meant to add that, in my own experience, most people will largely not care about my stutter -- if they do, they have some deep insecurity that they are not dealing with well. I've had a ton ...

Agreed, tough love can be useful but only to people who already have the right mindset. Some people only use these kinds of messages for additional self-loathing material (been there done that)....

Update: It went pretty well, actually. Her family is really nice and understanding. Her niece and nephew pointed out my stutter, but they’re really little so it was kind of cute. The only person who d...

Dude you got this. Don't stress. We've all been there. I recently had to meet some of my girlfriends family and they actually told her my stutter was cute and they wanted to hear me stutter more. It d...

Yeah I met my boyfriends parents and I was so nervous like hell I felt so ill and my anxiety levels were through the roof and I don't have anxiety! Just remember if you make your gf happy, they will m...

I have a mild stutter (mostly) but I understand how it can be for severe stutterers. Which is why I would never insult anyone who cannot do something....

I apologize if this is super TLDR. Don’t give up hope! Job hunting or even first meetings (like dates, first days of school ect )are definitely harder for anyone with a speech disfluency. Believe me,...

No need to apologize at all. Sharing thoughts about our situation gives me enough comfort. When you describe yourself, it's like you are describing me. After I opened up about my stuttering, I found t...

I feel the same way. I'm sorry, but I don't have much advice to give you. I'm struggling the same way you are. I used to hate talking to people, and was very paranoid and anxious about stuttering in f...
