This is awesome :) Good work! Although I don't know how people will react to it. You and your friends are hiding your stutter so well that maybe some people will say "What are they talking about? I d...

I feel like my smiles look really fake and forced. I've been told that I look intimidating. I'd rather keep that image than one of a nervous wreck....

It was occasional, maybe if I was nervous and in front of people and it was blocking. Now It's repetitive and I'm stuttering even talking to family. I think it's probably because I've never realized i...

I'm not going to give the same tired bullshit advice of "Don't care about stuttering!, put yourself out there!" because everyone knows that advice is shit and doesn't have a foot in reality for most. ...

Welcome to the hell is more like it. I take it your impediment is blocks like mine. When I was a kid and teen I had a repetitive stammer and in my adulthood it evolved into this. If I get stuck I have...

I'm always wearing headphones. Not to mention my neutral facial expression isn't too friendly. That prevents small talk for me....

Same here. It's been getting worse for me tough. I didn't really realize I stutter until a few months ago, but someone was telling me I stutter a lot. Then someone else mentioned it. I'm getting more ...

Hey thanks for the advice and book recommendation. I am 21 years old. I've honestly never really cared for my stutter in the past. When I opened up to my friends that I stutter they were shocked and t...

I'm known as that... i only can talk to a few people without stuttering badly, and everyone else I stutter talking to. So I don't talk that much, and I just look at my phone. Everyone thinks I'm antis...

You sound identical to me. I'd rather to be known as a snob than a man who can't speak properly....

How old are you? I'm 33 and I grew up stuttering pretty severely and conditioned myself with some pretty hardcore anxiety - social anxiety is probably the worst part of it. It got so bad at one poin...

How do you deal with people that want to make small talk with you?

How do you deal with people that want to make small talk with you? The other day I ran into this elderly lady who kept wanting to chit chat with me about everything from her cats to her garden then fi...

I gave up on trying to be social years ago. It just wasn't worth the hassle and embarrassment afterwards. My mode of operation is to simply say as little as possible. It me it's better to be known as ...

Stuttering is tough. I used to let fear dominate my life. Fear of speaking gave me anxiety yada yada yada. Try to replace the fear with fun. I know that sounds crazy but try to lighten up. We stutter ...

Stuttering/Anxiety

Stuttering/Anxiety My stuttering goes to overdrive when I am explaining something to my friends or just hanging out with my friends in general. I am absolutely horrible at telling stories as you can i...

Everything. As someone who also has a severe block stutter, I'm the last person who is going to tell you it doesn't affect my life. I don't go a day without thinking about when I am going to block or ...

You can't give up! Our tyrannical fluent overlords will never make it easy, but you can't pack it in. Life with a stutter is difficult but not impossible. Employers value results and will not care abo...

Keep going, never give up! I stutter too, but I can't let it stop me. I won't give in because of one little stammer. You can't let it control you. REMEMBER, YOU'RE IN CONTROL. NOT THE STUTTER....

Stuttering and working

Stuttering and working Hi everyone. Does anyone have issues with their stutter at work? I hate it because I have a problem talking in public so I either talk whispering or not really at all. So int...

Bro you sound just like me, how I stuttered and thought about my stutter. I couldn't pronounce R until the 5th grade. I always have a prolongation or block on ST and it feels like I'm choking. I spe...
