Congratulations friend!! Hard work pays off and no amount of stutter will get in your way. I defended my master's with a stutter and I know how hard it can be. Truly, you've accomplished something hug...

Yes I stutter on my first and last name as well. My last name is pretty long Rodriguez and I rarely ever get it out without stuttering. Though if I say it slow I can usually get it out. My first name ...

Imo only the individual can decide for themselves if they feel fulfilled. Blanket statements saying every is fulfilled or no one can be fulfilled seem out of place to me. Op seems to be saying one "c...

Can't say it is a 'technique', but I tried 'desensitization', where I distracted myself off fluenecy. I tried to give up focusing on my fluency after I hit high school and back then I thought I shoul...

I hated mine so damn much too! I hit rock bottom when I couldn't ask for simple things for my kid. I did want to be normal, just as you want now. And I am normal now. I am just as fluent as anyone els...

bitch even the real King George never stopped stuttering. I don't think the movie depicted him as completely overcoming his stutter either, it was just a single speech that was still not 100% fluet. ...

No, every severe PWS really deserves my condolences even though I am a mild PWS! I know when you have severe stuttering everytime you speak it's gonna be a mental torment, but 'accept it' is not just...

The more you talk the less you care, the less you care the less you stutter...

My current girlfriend straight up confronted it, made my life a whole lot easier everyone’s different. If I’m having a very bad stuttering session someone finishing my sentence is amazing. It’s like a...

That is so great!! I'm just starting to talk/ stutter more too. I need to live my life and stop selling myself short by hiding. I like this sub, we are all in this together....
