Yes. I'm fluent in Japanese and stutter in both that and my native English. The worst part about it is people assuming I'm not fluent or am a beginner because I block....

I know most people will say "not with that attitude!" as a joke, but in this case it's true. You're never going to have a frame or confidence if you don't start allowing yourself to have a frame or co...

Question to people who speak more than one language..

Question to people who speak more than one language.. Just want to ask anyone who speaks two or more languages, do you'd still stutter or is it just your native language you stutter in? Reason I ask...

I've been taking medication for stuttering since 1998 I was 36 years old then it worked for me my speech is smooth not to mention confidence and everything else that comes with it ....not trying to se...

Always do what you feel is right for you. Personally, I don't want to take anything that takes away my own agency. If I have a good day I want it to be because of me and my hard work. I know the name...

I’ve had a stutter my entire life. I can assure you that isolation is not what’s causing it lol...

I’ve never been so lonely, but I have no energy to change. In my head, every social interaction is something to be avoided at all costs. Here’s just a little venting and some backstory of my life experiences so far.

I'm in my 30s now so I have a ton of experience on different interviews and jobs. I almost always stutter my worst on interviews and I let the interviewers know that I do stutter, but it generally ge...

I’ve been told I have an Australian accent but…. I just have a stutter...

They sometimes confuse me with a foreign national in my own country lol

They sometimes confuse me with a foreign national in my own country lol You read it correct. Because of my stutter, many people think that I'm not from here at first. When I have to talk with institut...

I got that because it's subtle. It might start a conversation, but it's not something like a t-shirt that says "stutterer" (which I might make). I had thought about it for a while and I still love it ...

You're not worthless. You're more than your stutter. You may feel like your stutter colors the way others see and hear you. But you exaggerate that in your mind to more than it is. Feeling worthles...

Moderate to severe clutter Stutter, bad eye sight and astigmatism, autistic, many many other things. Nothing wrong with being different. I do understand how much of a burden you can feel being so diff...

Tattoo ideas?

Tattoo ideas? I am trying to come up with some ideas/designs for a meaningful tattoo about stuttering. Any suggestions?...

To be honest it was I believe my first post on reddit. It's amazing how great people you find to give you sincere advice. You're absolutely right; "take ownership" and everything you said, It's powerf...

Hello. I wish there was a simple answer. What you'll find is every person who successfully manages their stutter will tell you the same thing, there is no cure. Just hard work and more patience than m...

Recently realized that me fumbling over my words constantly is actually a stutter I’ve always been really self-conscious about the way I speak, but I didn’t realize it was a stutter until… literally y...

I do care, even though my stutter isn't severe I care a lot. But for me it's kind of a logical deduction: Ok, I get it, I have a stutter, now what? 1) Staying all day at bed, living at my mom's expen...

Fair play to you, are you fully over your stutter? Like can you just blurt something out when you need to? My journey is still ongoing, a long way to go still and much to learn...
