Control what you can control. You can't control how people react to your stutter. The good thing is that you're actually trying to talk. Keep talking and people will adapt to your stutter. When you're...

Definitely practice lots of times. Change the words you feel will be difficult. Watch yourself in the mirror saying the presentation and you will have a good memory of being able to do it. You’ve go...

In college I had to do a presentation in front of more than 100 people. It was a final project and the teachers decided to gather students from all courses, but I persevered through. It can be hard, b...

Fuck them. Don’t drop out cause some dipshit is giving you hell. I had a speech class this past semester and it was pretty frustrating. Whenever I’d present I could feel the atmosphere in the room dro...

Thanks👍. Yea, when it came to texting girls back I used to be the same exact way. Right when I hit the send button I was almost sure that I had said the wrong thing and was about to confuse, or offe...

That does make a lot of sense. I think expectations is huge in the experience of stuttering. It’s really kinda a subjective experience. It’s like having money. One person might make $100,000 a year an...

I think there are a lot of factors but I think the road to recovery mostly involves the same general principles. So every program has to involve supportive individuals, growth in confidence, assertive...

I definitely agree. I have a similar thought. Maybe the worst thing about stuttering is the downspiral that happens after. If we don't let that occur and do what we're supposed to, stuttering in itsel...

They didn't make a mistake hiring you. If they hired you fully knowing, you're clearly perfectly qualified for the role regardless of your speech. Think about how qualified you are for the role vs a...

Let’s goooooo!!! Great post I also would like to add that if you do something or have a specific thought that lifts your spirits, take note of whatever it is that helped boost your attitude, and then...

Do what makes you happy. I was told growing up that I was worthless and I envisioned a future of isolation and depression. When you are doing a job that you were told you couldn't do and are excell...

Therapy works temporarily for 6 months , stuttering is like a cancer .It comes back vigorously. No treatment whatsoever. You need to relax ,get away from toxic environment, need the constant encourage...

I view fluency as a spectrum. Hardly anyone in the population is without some disfluency. For stutterers, our disfluency is so frequent as to be evident in everyday speech. I was a severe stutterer....

Remember to breathe, drink water, and take your time. I feel for you. It will be difficult at first but the more you do it, the easier it will be. I also suggest asking a friend or family member ...

Bruh, I recently got selected for an internship at a pretty high profile company next summer, and the only thing on my mind has been that they'll realise that they've made a mistake. I'm scared af tha...

While there is no magic pill for stutter, I noticed that there are certain things that help you manage it (I need to stress that 'manage' does not mean 'cure'). For instance, in my case, these are suc...

I think I know the pain you are talking about. If you’re not referring to pain from depression, the pain you feel in your head I think is from competing intentions that are wearing you out. For exampl...

I agree, I stuttered basically whole my life, but with practice and mindset change was still able to host online meetings, make phone calls with strangers, have a side job where communication is very ...

That’s really cool! I also believe we can gain confidence from rejection. And of course when things go well that builds confidence too. I watch this YouTube channel called “ShaunDan TV.” They approach...

Gotta be less insecure about the speech. Life goes on, laugh at the jokes. Unless they are directed and verbally towards you....
