Bi annual reviews at work always put the pressure on me being wrong and I never get to put pressure back on them. It sucks....

I agree and relate with all of your points and I’ll add some more. In the work environment it’s like there is this unwritten and unspoken rule where you’re always treated lower on the social hierarchy...

You WILL get a job even with a stutter. Speech therapy can do great things. For me it was less about speech therapy and just therapy! Even my speech therapist admitted they did less exercises with m...

Sorry for getting back to you late. I had a busy day at work. During the clinical portion of your training, you will have to speak with patients and also to the whole team. We also had an oral exam at...

Your comment literally made me tear up. I just finished up my first year in medical school. I don't worry too much about the academics weirdly enough, but about the clinical courses and rotations. I'm...

It's not hard to interact with the patients. After a while you get used to it and get relaxed around them, especially since they are at a lower level than you. The hard part, I'm sure you know, is int...

Sorry being late on the answer, but better late than never. Also a scientist here (applied physics, PhD, Europe). I have been stuttering since being a child and working in my field in an "applied rea...

Same here, I work with kids and never stutter. Being able to experience fluency is a real perk of my job....

It's worse on the phone yeah. I was once applying for a job, and then guy kept hanging up on me because he thought I was pranking him or conning him because my answers took too long. lol...

It's always so hard to talk to my boyfriends family. They are nice, but I just feel so on the spot. , especially since his dad is highly educated and I feel like they may think that I'm dumb or not go...

i am a synthetic chemist and a stutterer, you can do this!...

I think stuttering helped me grow up. It also made me more polite and professional. I was an introvert when it used to weigh on me in high school, but as an adult I’ve become more extroverted again. T...

Thanks for this. I also tried the SpeechEasy and it did work for me - when I could wear it. However, I work remote so when I have meetings I wear headphones and those do not work with the SpeechEasy. ...

My experiences with my stutter

My experiences with my stutter I'm new to this board, but after responding to a prior post regarding stuttering today, I had to create my own post sharing my experiences and what I've learned ranging ...

New to this sub and I have a few questions

New to this sub and I have a few questions First off, I have a stutter. I've had it for as long as I can remember. I'm bilingual and I stutter in both languages. Everyone I talk to knows I have a stut...

I am a doctor, finishing up my first year of residency training. Don't compromise your career choice based on your stuttering. I definitely had to work harder than my peers, but I have no regrets. Bec...

USAF for the past 12 years. Toughest part was the 3.5 years I spent as a Military Training Instructor (drill sergeant). I’ve been pushing myself out of my comfort zone since I was a teenager, so I was...

I work in hospitality but my life goal is to become an actor. What at the chances I'm stuck with a speech impediment when I want talking as a career.....

What jobs/careers do you have?

What jobs/careers do you have? I’m currently in college to become a Chemist, but I’m afraid my stutter will hinder me from being seen as “professional” when I have to explain lengthy and complicated c...

I do not consider my stutter a disability. Maybe because I have lived life with it and it has not noticeably held me back. If I ever got wind of the fact I was discriminated again because of it I woul...
