This is a great answer. Maybe this is why someone with a "mild" stutter such as myself could be suffering the social problems of something with a moderate or severe stutter, because my speech may de...
Appreciate the honesty in this comment. Sometimes it feels a little patronising/gaslighting when people tell you to just be yourself or that its what you say that matters, not how you say it, because...
Your first comment sounded like you made it do easy and simple, severe stutterers have really hard time doing all the things you mentioned, stuttering and it's effects and thier environment is differe...
I follow this guy [https://www.facebook.com/chasegillis87](https://www.facebook.com/chasegillis87) Go through his posts and he has lot of exercise and tips on desensitizing yourself to judgement from...
Hey! I’m 23m, I have a sever stutter (according to my speech therapist), I’m also about to start grad school for speech pathology…I also have been seeing a speech therapist for myself for the last li...
Yes, thats exactly what I'm trying to tell you. You need be comfortable with yourself in whatever you're doing. I'm sorry you had to go through 'near total destruction' while trying to push yourself t...

I don't want to be laughed at when I'm trying to say something and be taken seriously. There's a time and place for making jokes, if you like that sort of thing, but laughing when people are trying to...
Sorry that you went through that stuff. I'm currently going through as well. The thing with stutter is that everyone's not in the same boat. But I'm glad the therapy and self belief worked for you; Tr...
Good for you but Please get off that high horse. Stutter does prevent a lot of people from a lot of stuff. It is a disability when you're not just delayed but sometimes can't say a single word for min...
You do you. Having empathy for others, and holding myself to a high standard are not my excuses to avoid conversation. The fact I have a severe stutter, along with a distinct aversion to contact of ...
Hey, maybe stupid question from someone not from an English speaking country : what's an ENT? Other than the big tree creatures from Tolkien's works. Also as to the topic: although I do not stutter m...
