It’s so hard to talk about something that other people cannot understand. The anxiety of ordering or asking for help, and the shame of fucking up a simple sentence. The best thing that has got me th...

Everything you said is right, I love the way you put that. It sounds a lot like if I were talking to Jordan Peterson haha. With that said, so much of what you said is right when it comes from an alr...

What stuttering programs helped you overcome your stutter?

What stuttering programs helped you overcome your stutter? I am interested in investing in a stuttering program that actually helps overcome stuttering. When finances are fine on my side in the future...

This is so bizarrely true. I have a hard time with words that start with “st” and “sp” so just accepting that I’m gonna have to break down the sounds and maybe seems a little weird helps me to press t...

Ironically, accepting that there will be fuckups relieves some of the pressure which reduces stress which in turn reduces stuttering....

You know what.. I have a frnd who always helps me by saying.. 'Everyone have some imperfection either physically or mentally.. U have just stutter.. Other have alot of other issues which are more diff...

This subreddit has helped my confidence so much.

This subreddit has helped my confidence so much. I only started looking at this subreddit regularly 2 weeks ago and it already has made me more confident. I felt so ashamed of my stutter and embarrass...

If someone is making effort to accommodate your stutter, I'd say they're trying to accommodate it and they have good intentions. I understand that it might seem like they're pitying you, and it can hu...

Just treat him like a normal dude. We're just like anybody else, we just suck at talking. Also don't cut him off. Sometimes we'll get stuck on a word but the timing is so on point that it'll seem like...

I can confirm that what you said is true. Ive been thinking and taking action in a similar way for about 5 months now, and the result has been amazing, I have made progress in these past 5 month regar...

Thank you for this post. I’ve been prescribed benzodiazepines as well, and yes, my stuttering reduced. Eventually, I acclimated to that dose and it didn’t have a positive affect on my speech anymore...

wow, this hit home, so much so that I relate to everything you typed, esp. about exposing your vulnerability, and finding meaningful connections with other human beings. I listen to other people with...

Glad you overcame it, I don't understand why it is legal to even be able to prescribe such addictive drugs. I personally have never taken any medications except a paracetamol once every 6 months or s...

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it'll happen again just like you'll mess up during a performance if you move on to perform. I'm 35 and pretty sure I still stutter on a day to day basis, and I h...
