Hang in there ❤️we all know how you feel. Remember your stutter is not your fault, and it’s not who you are. Would you consider emailing the interviewer ahead of time to explain that you have a disab...

Never do that! If you like, say something like, yes, I stutter/ have a stutter. Never say sorry. I think it will even make the listner feel awkward (more than your stutter might have done) and you're ...

There are *tangible* steps one can take to *achieve* the result of not constantly thinking others are judging you. The steps acknowledge the severe emotional pain (trauma) involved with trying to sp...

I was used to hiding it whenever I could, so some girls wouldn't notice. But now I'm forced to disclose it because my stutter got worse (self-doubt and low confidence are to blame) and it honestly hel...

Personally I appreciate when people are straightforward and ask me about it instead of pretending it doesn't exist, it helps us communicate more effectively together....

I've honestly come to the same conclusion, that a lot of people just have no clue how to react because they've never encountered a stutter before and some of them blurt out the first thing that comes ...

So... fixing your self-esteem isn't a one and done thing. This will probably take a lot of work and effort from your side. If it's possible for you to see a therapist, that may be worth trying, althou...

Never had this experience but yeah, it's always better to disclose your stutter beforehand. People often misinterpret or misunderstand our speech impediment, so it's always a good idea to give a heads...

I have! I mentioned smth like this months ago in another Reddit post, idk if it was this but I have. I was just honest, I straight up told my interviewer I have a stutter, and he saw how I didn't let ...

I mean it shouldn't be a secret thing since you're just practicing speech. People who dont stutter also rehearse for a presentation and no one bats an eye. If you don't feel comfortable with other peo...

Humans are creators of habits. It will be very uncomfortable in the beginning but the feeling of freedom you will have if you tell your friends, is more beneficial than hidding it 💪🏼...

I’d be open with them about it. In my experience hiding it from people makes it worse, and brings about a burden you don’t realise is there until you make it known. They should be proud of you that yo...

Plosive D first name lead off a single soft near silent g after an S lead off on surname I never stood a chance. Never figured it out, really. Found fluency but still that name fear. Also respons...

Good habit. Introduce yourself and advise you have a speech impediment at the beginning of the interview. Look them in the eye, offer it with your introduction and say "so just be patient with me if...

Yes! 3 years ago I landed my dream job as an electrician for a very reputable commuter railway. I stuttered so much during the interview but the interviewer didn’t seem bothered. Just be genuine and e...
