Honestly, you need to just go out there and try. When I watched the king's speech when it came out, I never imagined myself that someone would want me but I was with someone for almost 5 years, and it...

I feel like if you begin stuttering at 14 you're atypical. Maybe confidence is a key factor for you. For those like me who started at 5-6, and haven't stopped since (now 30), confidence is not the dec...

Hey! About to start 2nd year here of Uni! For me, it got way better when I started uni with the anxiety stuff. I would say my coursemates pushed me quite a lot out of my comfort zone + I myself pu...

The fear and anxiousness you’ve created in specific situations like asking for something is causing tension in your speaking muscles which is why you have the block. Its a delicate situation because t...

Again, nothing changes if you’re asking what ifs. It seems the biggest issue you have to deal with is not your stutter but your mindset. You are capable, you just have to believe in yourself. Also tha...

I am a believer in positive self talk. Even if you believe you are ugly, you should stop saying it. You might eventually stop thinking that about yourself. I am not really sure what else to say. I sin...

You got the job because you’re qualified. You get the bf because he sees beyond the stutter and appreciates you as a person. It doesn’t have to be a cycle, you can break it....

I am sorry to hear of your struggles. I've felt the same way at times. What has always helped me find relationships is being funny. I think I used humor to mask my stuttering because I tend to stutte...

I never told an employer about it. I felt that if I felt it would hold me back, that that would give the employer second thought weather I was the one for the job. I was tired of feeling sad and hopel...

Hey I was also in a very similar spot at one point in my life. I worked from home, no hope of finding someone to share my life with, no friends, just no hope. Then one day I sent a msg to a young lady...

Yw! Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. Don't forget it. I've started following that mantra and never looked back....

I think the fear is starting to get a hold of you. The more fear you have the more it's going to negatively impact situations. Push yourself outside your comfort zone. Dont avoid those words. And b...

Give it a time. After 1 Month ask yourself "do I feel more confident that at the day 1?" If so, it will get only better. I can imagine that most of the time you will improve. Let´s say you stutter li...

I am not promoting anything.I stuttered until I was 57 years old. I’m fluent now. I will get kicked off Reddit if I mentioned the method or how I did it. I am a retired Christian man who wants to help...

Good post. My comment.I will get naysayers. However, this is true.I tried all the speech therapy in the world. Nothing worked. My speech would improve then get worse then before. It changed like the w...

You're welcome. I love you too, man. Yeah, to me it sounds like anxiety and a huge build up of stress. You have to teach yourself to relax before you speak your first word. I think you'll get there ev...

Well you are right about the speech therapy but as others said, the game of confidence needs to kick on to get you going. Confidence is indeed the goal we are trying to reach for....

False hope is no comfort. Only hard work will help a stutter who has not overcome the affliction by their late teens. This is no opinion but plain facts. Stutterers have my complete empathy. I want to...

Completely disagree. As a person who was scared to order food, call clinics/stores, meeting new people, I can say that you don't need anything. Simply, getting confident in doing certain things help f...

No, I said "I could try" and I see nothing wrong with saying that. I never said something like I have the cure for your stuttering. Yall are making this into a big deal when it's not. Maybe just maybe...
