I can relate to you so much. It was a very very long way for me and there were many ups and downs, but now I can accept my stutter (nearly always) without fear and shame. I just want to say this one t...

You are totally right it is much easier said than done. And everyone's approach to it is different. When I was in speech therapy we did a lot of live practicing. Literally call actual places and ask...

I don’t think you should think of it as a burden tho. You are a human being and have a right to the pursuit of happiness. In my opinion stuttering is more of a mental confidence issue that a physical ...

If you can, find an slp who specializes and understands stuttering. Most SLPs get either very very little training or poor training in stuttering. So be aware there's a likely chance his school SLP is...

Very sorry to read this but you are stronger than you think. Dealing with such a burden isn’t easy and not everyone can handle this. You are a warrior my g, we all are ! Life is going to prove to you ...

Thanks for your advice. It’s nice to know I’m not alone. It can feel like it at times. I’ll try my best to keep going and not be disheartened. I wish you the best in the future. The world needs more p...

Of course, don't do that for them. But for example, when I'm too lazy to practice I just think about those incidents and that gives me some kind of "fuel" to really improve and make the best out of my...

When you have a stammer, your confidence can take a big hit. Honestly it's going to be a very long road ahead of him if he is going to get over it. I'm 22 now and have had a stammer almost all my life...

About 12 years ago I had a severe stutter. I still stutter from time to time. I recommend the McGuire program to recover from stuttering. I’ve probably had 40 job interviews in the past five years. Th...

Short answer: it’s hard sometimes but you keep pushing on. I’m 27, and I’ve stuttered my entire life. Like you, it is fairly mild but some days are worse than others. As a child I was extremely self ...

Never give up on your dreams. It’s challenging at times but you have to believe that something better is coming. If they let a speech impediment get in the way between them and a good employee, you do...

That's tough to hear. That's my biggest fear honestly. I probably wouldn't block on the hello but somewhere in the middle of the conversation seems to be my weak point. Don't let it get to you man, yo...

27 here, too. You might be absolutely right about being rejected due to stuttering. However, please don't give up, I know it's hard, trust me!! Just keep applying, I got my job from an indeed applicat...

Years ago I had an interviewer cut me off in the first 5 minutes. I asked why, and they stated it was communications intensive position and then added other crap about qualification which was funny as...

Don't give up. I'm sure you'll get a job. We believe in you! My advice is just keep applying. Apply to every place you can to write. See if there are jobs online as well. The more places you apply the...

As someone whose slept with 30 different women, sober, even with a stutter, I can humbly tell you to tell those fuckers to go fuck themselves... So, they judged your character based on a first impres...

Bad situations like this have the hidden benefit of giving you motivation to improve your speech and reach a next level in fluency. I had a situation where I heard from a common friend after a date th...

Good for you working hard to get to a position to interview at your dream firm. That is a feat, and you should be proud. I am really sorry that happened to you. You don't deserve that. Keep your hea...

Work groups used to be my biggest struggle as well. Feeling excluded from the conversation and the jokes. Often being too scared to say anything because I didn't want to "ruin the flow" of the convers...

Np buddy, I still go through times where I get low on myself. It's an ongoing struggle, but your not alone and you can live a happy life. Feel free to PM me if you ever need to talk about anything....
