If you already told him you have a stutter and he’s ok with it I wouldn’t worry. Just be yourself and stutter in front of him. Better to get it out the way and see if he was honest when it said it did...

People care a lot less about your stutter than you think. That's something I've only recently realized. People care a lot more about all the baggage that comes along with it (anxiety, weirdness, etc.)...

Keep in mind there is a perspective about the world that you have that is unique and valuable in its own way. Non-stutterers may not really be able to know how you feel, but there are likely certain s...

Why aren't there drugs for stuttering?

Why aren't there drugs for stuttering? It's bullshit how bipolar, ADHD, and OCD have their own treatments, but none for stuttering. Speech therapy is useless and it didn't help me. So basically I'm h...

Research says onset during early childhood it is genetic and portions of your left side of the brain are used less when people who stutter speak...instead we use the right side of our brain. While th...

Cried because of my stutter

Cried because of my stutter I cried for the first time in a year just a couple minutes ago when I thought about my stuttering and how much it has affected my mental health/relationships. I felt so num...

I started stuttering once I realized that I was gay, so I'm guessing that was it. This was back in fourth grade and I was confused and just hated myself at the time, which caused me to become insecure...

It's hard to compare with any because it is a so-called "hidden disability". If you see a person with no legs in a wheelchair, you already know that running the marathon is out of the question. If you...

They can't fail you for stuttering. Take it and prove to yourself that you can do it. This doesn't mean you won't stutter. What I mean is that you stutter but you still have plenty to say. It took me...

What would you compare stuttering to?

What would you compare stuttering to? As a disability, it’s hard to nail down how it should be treated. What I mean is, on the one hand, I don’t think it’s okay to define someone by there stutter by...

nah i like hearing about other stories, i dont know anyone in real life with a stutter so it’s comforting knowing that we all face similar situations and are trying. and definitely i think accepting...

I don't want to be the guy who just keeps mentioning how he also messed up when people tell him how they messed up. But i just want to tell you that i had to record a video presentation in one of my c...

As an older gentleman, let me give you my perspective, tho of course your mileage may vary. To start: Do I have trouble accepting myself and my stutter? Every. Fucking. Day. And that's fine. I've come...

30-year-old here. I've felt the same way. Sometimes, I still feel that way. As difficult as it sounds, at some point you just gotta say fuck it and start enjoying your life. Try to make life easier fo...

I do also compare my speech abilities with other friends or anything in general, but there's more in a person, If i suck speaking then I just gotta get better at anything that I can do....

I can't say I'm no longer struggling with the negative effects of my stutter but I guess I've made pretty good progress in the self-acceptance department these last few years. Here are a few things th...

I completely understand you bro, i am a stutterer myself i am also 23 now, i also can't accept the fact that i have to live like this forever, More importantly i don't want to live like this, Stutteri...

Hey, thank you. And welcome to reddit! I’m happy if my post made you feel a little less alone. Being a stutterer can feel very lonely in general, as we’re not a big percentage of the population. I’ve ...

I joined this group when my brother (who stutters) used my phone to look at this a while back but I didn’t leave the group. I just want to give a point of view of someone who doesn’t stutter at how cr...

So many! My first name (which I hate the most) words that start with the letter C (communicate, community) some R words too (relationship, reductive) there’s a lot more too, it depends on my fluency t...
