As a woman who stutters it’s the same with guys trust me 😭. The baseline is that if someone doesn’t want to understand our issue they’re simply not the one period....

Well maybe like stress related pain? I guess what worked for me was realizing it couldn't actually hurt me, and that ultimately I *could* power through, as bad as it felt....

We don’t really know what other people’s struggles are. A lot of people have burdens they would trade in a heartbeat for stuttering. Everybody has something. It’s not what we’re burdened with but how ...

Well, I think the most important point is this: It’s not your fault! If you were blind, you wouldn’t feel ashamed of your disability. Same thing for deafness or paralysis or any other disability. Peop...

I went to an Ivy League and work as a software engineer. Not bragging (going to those places will teach how full of shit they are and the reputation means nothing) but I would’ve thought my life now i...

this has nothing to do about when stuttering is at its worst. i’m talking about social acceptance of stuttering. lock in broski...

bruv i know you’re still in highschool but people’s tolerance of stuttering will be better after highschool. it’s hard to accept and work around but you can’t let the stutter get the best of you. i pr...

I've never understood how fluency and self acceptance are compatible. We are people who stutter. SLPs tell stutterers that who they are is ok, and in the next breath tell them they should to eliminate...

My son is a stutterer and in high school. He doesn’t talk like others and he is well aware of that. He also doesn’t truly care what others think. He found a small group of friends who he is very close...

Thats the dream brother, to on day overcome stuttering. The only people that have 'overcome' stuttering are like little kids who are still developing their speech faculties, if you stutter into adulth...

I get that you’re angry. We’re all frustrated about dealing with a stutter. So I’m not sure why you’re directing all that anger at the folks here. (Also, if you hate this community so much, why post ...

Girls at bars are generally shallow and witchy unless they are with someone. Don’t get too bummed, they aren’t worth your time. Also but like outside the bar I know it still happens. The best thing I ...

Hey man. I felt the exact same way at your age. Life was hell. I remember how it felt like stuttering owned everything in my universe. I'm 37 now and I work in communications. I make good money. I'm...

>My personal take, any SLP that talks or advocates fluency doesn't really get it. Even if they stutter themselves.  How do you support such an idea? Maybe I'm misunderstanding your meaning. To me, a...

I don't think I said he purports to cure stuttering, only that he seems to focus on fluency which imo is totally the wrong direction as fluency incompatible with acceptance of being a pws. Also hearin...

Maybe I’m missing how that chunk of his bio describes himself as someone who pretends that stuttering can be cured. In his free podcasts, He speaks at great length about how stuttering will return...

From his own bio: >Georgia licensed and nationally certified speech-language pathologist since 1992, he specializes in the evaluation and treatment of fluency disorders in Atlanta. As a severe stutter...

I’m in my 40s. Severe stutter. Some weeks I can’t get a sentence out. I’m thrice married, have wonderful young-adult children getting ready to start college and I work a job with tons of communication...

You should be proud. The fear is the worst, but sometimes when you've pushed through and got to the end, it's the best feeling....

You overcome stuttering by learning to accept it. My stutter will always be there in some capacity but it occupies much less of my headspace now in my 30s than it did when I was younger. The more expo...
