The best advise I can give you is for you to speak with your child’s school / college / university when the year begins and explain to them your child’s speech stutter. I was an A* student till 16, on...

How do I fix this?

How do I fix this? Hello everyone, I’m from the U.K. and just wondering if there is any way to get some sort of speech therapy in relation to stuttering on the NHS?? I had a really bad stutter as a ch...

This is what I hate about stuttering. What it does to one's development of confidence and self worth. This is a McDonalds job. A McJob, if you will. They are going to be glad to have you. Set your ...

I highly suggest you disclose your stutter at the top of the interview. Your potential employer won’t be confused as to why you speak in that way, they can better integrate you into their workflow wit...

Just applied at mcdonalds I have a pretty moderate stutter and social anxiety, as the title reads I just applied at mcdonalds, do you guys have any tips on how to approach the interview, as I'm scared...

Thanks I think I am little better than before but for me the most stressful situation is when I have to give job interview face to face , most of the time I lose control over my fluency, thanks to pan...

Ecopipam availability

Ecopipam availability Is there any way to buy ecopipam?, It's the only promising drug to reduce stuttering, it's still in phase 2 of trial. I will be joining my first company next week, my stuttering ...

Definitely let them know. At the end of the day, it's no crime to stutter and they have no right to ever belittle or stigmatise you for it so what's the worst that can happen? If anything, my speech t...

I don’t and won’t be having any. Got my vasectomy young and I’ve never looked back. The stutter wasn’t even the main reason — I just value my time and money more than i want to give up— but it definit...

It’s a disability depending upon how badly it impacts your ability to communicate. I mark it since it limits my ability to speak in a fairly substantial way. And it can work against you or for you d...

I'm 41, a radiology IT consultant, and have stuttered my whole speaking life. I would not go that route. It is an impediment but doesn't disable any of us (although it sure seems like it at times)....

Parent of 1 here. I'm the only stutterer I know in my family - going generations back even. My 20 year old kid is super fluent. Non-stutters don't understand how truly traumatizing that stuttering can...

I've only seen it listed as a disability on a few applications in my fairly recent job searches (listed as speech impediment). In TX, I have never received a call back of interest when I checked yes ...

Should I identify myself as having a disability when applying to jobs? Hi everyone, This is a new reddit account just so I could ask this question but I have had a stutter my whole life. It used to b...

That’s the thing. Even if they can’t fire me directly for the stutter they can indirectly for performance I didn’t expect the role to be so call focused, as my last one was a mix of contacting custo...

Thank you for this, would you please share more resources that point to better strategies? My own strategy has been substitutions - preemptively identifying the "blocking" words and quickly finding s...

Don’t worry about it. If you get fired it will suck. I’d try to build up your savings while you can and protect yourself by building up savings and reserves if possible. They shouldn’t fire you over...

You are right, when i used to going to the sport club i met a lots of people and they didn't care about my speech, we had really good time and talks so much. But talking in work it's different I think...

Well maybe watch the kings speech alone some time. Confidence really is the key to our troubles. I’m 26 years your junior but I have thankfully realised this by now. Getting comfortable with the uncom...
