I stressed myself out for the interview but didn’t even get the job.

I stressed myself out for the interview but didn’t even get the job. Now I’m left wondering if I didn’t get the job because they noticed my stutter (I stuttered a fair bit in the interview) or because...

I feel you buddy. Half of my job is explaining post-op instructions to patients so they are hyper focused on what I’m saying, I have to just power through it and explain everything. It’s stressful....

Good luck! Just remember that no one will really care about your stutter. It really shouldn't have any impact on what you're doing or the value and reception of what you have to say. I work in the off...

Way to go! When I was your age I spent a few years working in kitchen and found it was great, fun place. There's a lot to learn (each place has it's own slang, different methods/procedures for every...

Tomorrow is my first day on a new job

Tomorrow is my first day on a new job Hello fellow stutterers I'm 19 years old, I'm a mild stutterer but with strangers it becoms quite severe..Recently I threw myself out of a comfort zone and accep...

I'm in the same boat as you, I'm 21 and have stuttered for as long as I can remember. I'm interning right now and find it so hard to speak to people I don't know and that's really limiting the connect...

Felt the same way at 22. Now I'm 31 and work a career that involves communication. You'll be Ok. Facing our feared speaking situations is the way out, IMO. Just keep talking, despite anxiety, and it g...

For me it took a total breakdown to have the epiphany that if my heart was beating nothing else mattered. As in, life could throw everything it’s got at me and either I die, ok, or I keep going. And s...

I'll start out by saying that you (and by "you," I mean all of us) care so much more about your speech than anyone else, including prospective romantic partners. Now if you bring a bucketload of hangu...

Life with a Stutter

Life with a Stutter I am a 22 year old Male who has stuttered ever since I could talk. It was awful growing up but I got to a point where I could handle it and I didn’t care what people thought. Then ...

Non-stutterers also have blocks? ​ What should I do when I have interviews?...

Just had an online interview on Skype and I stuttered a lot. The interviewer didn't realize what was going on so I blamed it on poor internet connection lmao. Anyway another opportunity down the drain...

Anyone know what’s going on with me?

Anyone know what’s going on with me? Hey guys. Stuttered somewhat as a little child. Stuttered very mildly early in my high school years, I guess a mild covert stutterer. Had one slightly traumatic ...

As I aged, I've found that are other things to stress out about in life (kids, marriage, career) and the internal focus has shifted away from me and my stutter to whatever fires need to be put out. A...

Video Interview

Video Interview I’ve had a few video interviews in the past couple months and I have failed them all. I start off reasonably well but end up getting blocks and stuttering. This is also accompanied by ...

Hell no I wouldn't. Most people calling up IT customer support are frustrated as it is. If the guy on the other end cannot communicate and takes forever to speak, they'd get even more angry. A stutter...

When u start stuttering, you just feel like you shouldn't have opened ur mouth in the first place... Why only with stutterers that you struggle to find a job, literally with any other disability its f...

It's not impossible, I am doing it right now and I have done for 7 months at a big IT company while I was an intern. I was not all day on the phone, I used emails a lot to solve customers' issues, so...

Oh and I am also waiting to hear back from an interview I had last week. I stuttered and shook through the entire first half and a little bit at the end. But I knew that I was there to show these peop...

Since I too have a stutter, yes if it is in fact a stutter. There is little to nothing we can do about our stutters. I work retail and often I have to cashier, I absolutely hate doing it because it al...
