My first take on your post was "imposter syndrome." You don't give yourself enough credit for your achievements. It is **HARD** for stutterers to speak in front of a class. Just showing up is huge. I...

Hasn't the same thing ever happened to you?

Hasn't the same thing ever happened to you? So I just had an oral test, roman law (yay very interesting) and I really studied a lot for this but today I felt like my teacher asked me the easiest quest...

I definitely went through that phase of not wanting to ever speak again in a public setting. It takes some mental work (for lack of a better phrase), but I've come to realize over time that my stutter...

You are in good company here. People who do not stutter cannot identify with a person who stutters. It's impossible. Stuttering will mess you up if you let it. Don't let it. If you need any help, don'...

Im so glad i found this

Im so glad i found this I've been stuttering for as long as I can remember. I got help from a speech professional (can't remember the actual name of the job), and she helped me for many years. But now...

I'm new here, and I want to tell all of you this.

I'm new here, and I want to tell all of you this. Hi! I'm new here. I only made a account to join this subreddit. I've had a stutter my entire life, up until now, at seventeen. It's gone from severe...

22 yo here. I'm currently a electrical engineer working on a telecommunications company and living with my boyfriend in a lovely apartment in Brazil with our two cats. And I still stutter, but that's ...

Existential Angst

Existential Angst I'm writing this post for a little support if possible. I am 21 and for the past 2 years I have really taken a mental health toll due to existential angst about stuttering and fears...

Do you have anything you can cite? According to the 11th edition of Self-Therapy for the Sutterer (published by The Stuttering Foundation): "I have found that many people who stutter seem to be draw...

Great q, thank you. I learned that I was not the empathetic person I thought I was. I had spent a lifetime completely unaware of the challenges of living with disfluency and how I had contributed to t...

I felt all the expected empathy, pain, sadness, hope... but the over-arching, constant feeling was that of "mission". I've been on a mission to help change the world for kids who stutter. It drives me...

Don’t focus on stuttering and how it makes your life hell, just think of it as one of the many challenges everyone has to face everyday. But also don’t be too self absorbed about stuttering, if you’...

I'm 23 now and stuttering since 4, I can say that it definitely gets easier with age. You just have to realise that everyone has their flaws and bad sides, so normal and understanding people will not ...

Don't work on that if you don't want to. But then, don't write any rants in the future either, because you're apparently very satisfied with your condition. BTW, when I was in high school, sometimes I...

I have a 31+ year career in I.T / Network and Security Engineering, and I'm a lifelong stutterer. As my career progresses and I've become a Senior Security Architect, I'm required to attend a lot mor...

I also have been stuttering since I could talk and I wish to meet stuttering people like me...

Im 23 and have been stuttering since youth. Ive never come across another stutterer ever. I was reading local Indeed reviews and one said he/ she had a stutter and the manager was cool about it, almos...

Why should I work on my speech? I was born this way. Is there something wrong with me being the way I am? You're basically saying that, people who stutter, across the board, just need to work harder i...

I am way older than you and trust me, it gets better. Do not let your stutter define who you are. Learn to breathe correctly, take your time when you are talking and everything will be alright. Just a...

My stutter is making me so damn depressed.

My stutter is making me so damn depressed. I'm 16 atm and I've stuttered ever since I was 5. I've never particularly been bullied by it which I find very strange, but I did have good friends who didnt...
