No one is 100 percent. The idea is to overcome the fear of stuttering....

I’ve taught middle school for 24 years. My stuttering had ranged from very mild to moments of complete blocks. Yeah, some kids will make giggle, etc. Use your stutter as a teachable moment. Kids all f...

If you somehow accept your stutter and say to yourself "this is who I am, a person who stutters and others should understand that and wouldnt be my problem if they dont" everything gets better after, ...

No doubt! If we can deal with this on an everyday basis there’s nothing that can deter us. No one is more resilient than us!...

I agree, I view any kind of disability as playing life on hard mode, so I also allow myself to take a little more pride in achieveing things than other people probably would....

Well said. It’s part of us and I know it’s hard at times, but do everything you can to embrace it. I would not be where I’m at today without my stutter. Let’s just say we learn to deal with hardships ...

Perspective

Perspective I’m sure there’s many of you who have asked yourself why me? We realize that we can be at a disadvantage at times and stuttering can interfere with our everyday lives. There’s days where i...

New to this

New to this I have grown up with a pretty intense stutter, I’m a barber/hairdresser now. But I remember being a kid with a stutter and I used to have to other people order food for me. My siblings got...

I do know there are certainly physical impairments that cause stuttering, one of my good friends growing up, his father fell through the ice in Lake Michigan where I grew up, and he developed a stutte...

There are many teachers who stutter - you can no doubt be a teacher. And you’ll be one hell of a role model to all of your future students who stutter!...

Well, depends how severe your stutter is. It would be the best of you found a teacher with a stutter and asked him. Wenn i was a kid, 6-15 yo, we made a fun of many teachers based on their appearance...

No one is 100% fluent (not even non-stutterers) but I understand your point. :)...

Nope. That is not a true. There are few Programs that make you 100% fluent, or 99% fluent. They promises fluency because they can afford to make such a promise....

I recommend trying the Dave McGuire Program. They even have a self help book you can purchase on Amazon for about 10 dollars, called “Beyond Stammering, the Sport of Speaking.” It’s really a wholistic...

You have it wrong. You are hearing yourself fluent when you are reading. If you can speak fluently while reading, you can speak fluently while speaking. The reason why you can't, it's in your mind. It...

I've never had speech therapy, mainly cuz my stutter was never "that bad" that the school intervened, but I second this. Reading out loud just random articles (Wiki pages, some news stuff to also st...

I totally agree. I don't want to be the one to sit in a corner and hide. I have one life and I'm going to live it without fear. Easier said than done but I consider this a great start. Thankyou!!...

This is the same with places where you can just go to the pick up shelf and grab your food after you order. Its a gift and a curse because of course not having to worrying about speaking is great but ...

Wow, I’m surprised you can stay so calm. I would either punch them in their face or leave and never show up again. No family member ever made fun of it. Even in school it almost never happened. There...

Hell yeah! Truer words have never been spoken on this thread. I rock my stutter and if somebody has a problem with it they can walk away while I'm talking....
