Excuse me, you try to not tell her off???? Why??? This is bullying and bullying should not be tolerated!! This should not be considered acceptable behavior!! Maybe he thinks that no response will disc...

David, thank you for providing your phone number to the OP, but please delete it from the public reply ASAP. You never know what creep is going to see it. You can message him privately....

Great tips, I’m almost 40 and still remember the terror in school as it was yesterday. I’m giving presentations almost every day now but with the same bad stutter. My tip for my young self would be: Y...

I worked in research for years, had my own company and work now in consulting as a manager (talking somehow all day long) with a really bad stutter … still more bad days than good days but at least th...

Why did you not let the professor know ahead? I can’t tell you how much of a difference it makes in self disclosure. I am hard of hearing and I didn’t go to my in person class because I told my profes...

I’m sorry but idk if I just don’t understand this post. You say you are a senior, yet in your post you say “I thought people were more mature after high school” and after looking at your history, you ...

Stutter

Stutter Well I went on a stutter day outing with a few people who had stutters as well and yes mine is not as bad anymore because I swap words that make it easier for me to fill sentences but it doe...

Well, this will ultimately happen, I will end up saying something, as I detest bullies and in essence, that is what she is, then I know by doing this, I will then be singled out, I'm sure of it, this ...

Man. Good on you for coming here to ask for advice. It is a delicate matter - what with not wanting to potentially embarrass the guy, and with her being boss's missus. I'd either take her quietly to ...

Call out bad behavior. If you do not speak up on an unacceptable issue or situation, you are essentially condoning it. Complacency equals complicity...

I've been in education for 15 years, currently Dean of Students. I could explain this in more detail but the TLDR is I have to do it. I've learned what to say, what not to say, I've stuttered openly i...

Call him out on it mid training, tell him fuck with me again and I’ll tell HR on your dumbass or if there’s no HR just secretly fuck with him. Put a nail in his tire or something like that etc Don’...

What were some of your nicest encounters with others?

What were some of your nicest encounters with others? We discuss our bad experiences with people on this sub so often, but what were some of the nicest encounters you’ve had with non-stutterers? Whe...

Never do that! If you like, say something like, yes, I stutter/ have a stutter. Never say sorry. I think it will even make the listner feel awkward (more than your stutter might have done) and you're ...

If this assholes actions were so blatantly immature I would've educated him infront of everyone for a hot second. Explained my disorder while looking at him then carried on with the presentation. Eith...

That is solid thinking. Running would only build anxiety and make things worse when you next need to do it. I give talks to groups of people. I practice the shit out each one. When presenting, I am d...

Was thinking of turning it down bcs the teacher wont mind bcs she knows i stutter but until when? Thats cowardice. I can run but i cant hide from public speaking so if this is how i die let me die....

YESSSS I do this! It’s the most embarrassing thing ever I’m just there trying to speak and all I can get out is sorry. I know I don’t have to apologize but they’re waiting on me to say something and I...

Yeah that’s reasonable, I just have a bit of a different style. Same in principle. I don’t really disclose that I stutter, but I definitely understand why people would want to. I guess I just figure t...

There are *tangible* steps one can take to *achieve* the result of not constantly thinking others are judging you. The steps acknowledge the severe emotional pain (trauma) involved with trying to sp...
