See its easy to say for all the non stutters . U cant feel that exact pain what stutters faces every single day...

I've met other stutterers in the past and I've definitely experienced that. Getting past the discomfort is itself a huge step forward, so try things like listening to podcasts by stutterers. It might ...

and I have never heard such intelligent conversation about stuttering. Much like this subreddit, it's amazing to have so much common ground in understanding, knowing that everyone has been through so ...

thanks for the response. As much as it sucks hearing about your son, it does make it better hearing people in the same boat. Why was he getting ST at 1 yr old?...

My daughter has a stutter. She also has GAD (generalized anxiety disorder). It really sounds like anxiety is the main culprit here. Have you looked into any help dealing with that? We are lucky eno...

I feel your pain. I was in the same situation a while ago when I was studying abroad in Australia. I wasn't aware that I shuttered so much more in English than on my native language, and because of th...

As someone who works in IT and is dealing with stuttering again, thank you for this. ...

Yeah! I think you're really good at interpreting this stuff. Maybe they also have a bias towards that emotion because they're unconsciously trying to empathise. So they're thinking "if I were struggl...

Stuttering doesn't make people uncomfortable. Seeing someone in pain, ashamed, embarrassed, and uncomfortable does. Most people don't know what to think so they look to you to inform them. When they s...

That's great man, congrats on getting up there and doing it! Proud of ya and I don't even know ya. ...

One thing to remember is everyone has problems. The stutter might be obvious but no one in that audience is living the perfect life. They might be just as much if not more bothered by whatever they've...

Personally I wouldn't but it would depend on the kid. As a kid growing up with a stutter since about 9 years old I thought I was alone. I never knew anyone who had a stutter till I was 18 (well aside ...

I know, it's wonderful. I just NEVER hear anyone talk about it so I thought I'd just leave it here...

You sound very strong and I hope things are better than last year, thank you for the support, you have mine as well...

I know the pain you are feeling. Last year i reached absolute rock bottom. Hell really does exist. I have been stuttering for the last 10 years and each year always hoping that it will dissapear, till...

I may have not mentioned some details, idk. Thinking about it now, I can imagine she would have realized by now who I was and feel guilty about it. The thought gives me a good warm feeling inside. 🙂...

Yeah, I feel like you might have written about it here before, but maybe the details are different this time? Not sure.... Definitely the kind of situation you relive and wish you had done something...

Very tough but I have worked with a lot of great people who stand by me and help me through the really bad stutters. After a while the regulars have grown to know me and are pretty nice and all. Some ...
