What a great thread! This can be so uplifting. Today I had a phone interview, held in my third language that I don’t know well yet. I was very nervous but I made it through :D in 2 days I’ll have a ...

I work as a secretary, and I found a way to answer the phone and say the name of the company without stuttering! (It starts with a B which is super hard for me to say.)...

Hey thanks y’all. While modern technology has made it easy to get around stuttering. There’s still plenty of occasions where the phone is really the the best choice. I hope going forward I keep this n...

Yes, this is what I say to myself... they dont care and 3hours from now they wont even remember my face, let alone the stutter. I spoke to my direct manager too. She knows the problem. Thank you for y...

I have developed a coping mechanism.. I imagine 3 hours after the meeting, will I be as stressed as I am now? Will anyone care about the fact I stuttered through another meeting? It lowers my anxiety ...

I have a computer job too, and that’s exactly my problem. I need to present my project, or they did something to be done so they want to see me in a meeting ... im convinced they question my intellige...

i'm in the same boat. mid 30s, i always thought i would grow out of my stutter. I have a computer based job that (imo) excel at but when i'm due to present my project in front of others, i struggle w...

I have good days and bad days, for sure. It can depend on many things; how much sleep I got the night before, my mood and who I'm talking to for example. Take some time to relax. Mentally tell yourse...

Don't drink alcohol or try anything else before presentation! Stuttering won't ruin your career but this unwise move can :) Write down your presentation word to word, practice in front of friends, co...

Cool I study electrical engineering, for me the hardest part of university isn't the exams it's all the public speaking I have to do. I fear i will struggle to find a job. How do you cope with job ...

So, the recruiter said that the company is currently putting that position on hold. It has not been officially approved yet. However...I was contacted a few days ago (different recruiter) about two o...

I’m in the same place. I graduate in about 2 weeks. I’m a covert stutterer like you. I’ve become adept at hiding my difficulty, and I’ve never been to speech therapy, it’s too expensive. For a long ...

Both in high school and college I never participated in any of the programs either. Probably my biggest regret from those days. Make connections while there is still time my dude. Unfortunately the...
