High school kids are dicks. Don't ever take them seriously. Your opinion, at that point of time, is influenced by very few things and mostly pop culture and the people around you. Things definitely i...

Growing up my stutter was so bad that my childhood friend would "translate" what I said to other people. I somehow improved in the stuttering area over time without any speech therapist or therapy, b...

After highschool nobody really cared about my stutter. Those who said something were just completely in the dark about it and didn't understand its a disability. College and the workforce afterwards h...

I think its safe to say kids in highschool are, on average, dicks. It definitely gets better. People mature, and for the most part they learn putting other people down doesn’t make their lives bette...

It gets better but still some people never go away. When i was working for a company i knew they would still talk about me, but i made sure they all know that i know how to fight so didn't dare to sa...

It gets better. The older you get, the more people will realize that (a) you’re just dealing with the hand your genes dealt you and (b) mocking a stutter isn’t actually funny. Most adults will try to ...

Unfortunately, some people don't 'grow up' when they become older. There will be some individuals who will mock you and there will also be some people who will be very sympathetic with you. I used to ...

Relatable, coming from a moderate-severe stutter. Another thing I hate is that people treat stuttering like it’s so easy to cure. And you’re right about the celebrities. The only celebrity I know t...

Huh, to me it seems that the *positive* posts are more downvoted and made fun of, while the negative posts are celebrated. But anyway, no point in arguing over that…. I’m sure we are both noticing the...

If he's like me, he has good periods and bad periods with his speech. These can sometimes last weeks or months at a time. It's possible you've previously interacted with him during good periods, or ma...

Thanks. To put in perspective, if his stuttering used to be 3/10 in terms of how severe it was, I would say it's currently an 8/10. Nothing I am aware of has changed in his life lately either, so I am...

Don't you feel a kind of weakness? I mean,imagine you can't achieve something because of your stuttering....

I stutter and I'm extremely social. If I stutter when I talk to someone, I either get through it or just let it happen, sometimes people are weird and sometimes they aren't and my life isn't any diffe...

I 100% agree. I actually posted about this a couple weeks ago if you wanna read it. My stutter is extremely severe to the point where I’m almost mute. I have speech blocks that can last up to 30 secon...
