Yeah I thought the same as you too. Then I began to think of them as general goals (after somebody suggested I do this) and it made me view them in a better light. They're great goals you've shared! ...

Adults are going to be fine with your stuttering. The only thing getting nervous about stuttering is doing is making your stutter worse. I had an on-site interview for my current job with old rough an...

I've never heard of someone stuttering with sign language, it sounds like someone's idea of a bad joke...

I would assume that using signlanguage he could communicate as anyone else using signs. I am by no means an expert; so take it with a bucket of salt. My opinion and, the swedish medicine branch opinio...

And the funny thing is that they never had to deal with this discomfort, so for them the solution is just "relax and you'll be the most fluent person possible"! I get all the good intentions coming to...

I have had many people tell me this before, too many times to count. Another thing I've heard often is, "Take it easy, breath, slow down". I believe people say it because they feel a little uncomforta...

It's very hard to fully understand what goes on in someone's mind. People don't know how mentally tough stuttering is for us but we might not fully understand how mentally tough a certain disease or w...

I definitely agree with a lot of what InfiniteLoopTA is saying. I think people are more willing to talk than we think. We project our own discomfort, and may make up stories that will keep us from h...

>**Speech therapy was a waste of time** as stuttering would sorta just come and go as it pleased. Have you considered trying again? Therapy differs depending on therapist/client relation (and ther...

I've always had a supportive network of family and friends. My stutter is pretty severe by most standards, but the people around me make it so much easier. So yeah, I'm happy and I see myself as a no...

Thanks for sharing your stories, it helps to let others know they are not alone and others are going through the same struggle ...

Maybe the guy was smiling and thinking, "hey, good on this lad for sticking it out and not being afraid to stutter and order." That is just as plausible as whatever we come up with in our head. If yo...

Well, I asked her the obvious question....'u kno I stutter, right?' And she said 'yeaa, I noticed it a lil bit when we first started talking on the phone'. And it went from there. I'm sure she could t...

First off, I want to say that your therapists' advice rings very true for me. I think about that all the time. Yes, I have a stutter, but at least I don't have something worse. Those thoughts are what...

If it's one thing I've learned, bottling it up NEVER seems to help. And yet that's what I've done for all 24 years of my life, haha. If you don't mind me asking, how exactly did you bring it up to you...

Agreed. I'm so glad I found this sub. I feel like a door has been opened. Meeting all the people on this sub is already making me feel much less alone. ...

Maybe you are being too self critical. Not saying people werent laughing at you but we tend to be narrasastic and over analyze the situation. I feel for you though bro. I have countless stuttering s...

You were doing well to have a stutter and work in a job where you had to serve customers all day, that's something I'd love to be able to do. Good on you for not letting it hold you back...

I've met few stutters in my life, but when I do I always feel sad. I think it's because I can understand and sympathize with what they are going to, being a stutterer myself....

I hear you, we have our super cringe worthy embarrassing moments as stutterers (and non-stutterers). I've definitely been looked at like my IQ is 2 and am making involuntary movements that are loud, ...
