Yeah, with friends, but you have to deal with a lot of other people in life so it's still hard....

You are right about it being anxiety. Most people have performance anxiety as well but you can work on it by diving into those situations and not focusing on the outcome. Once you've become acclimated...

Same here. I am 24 years old and I feel like my stutter is in its worse moment. And by saying that I mean that I am thinking about it almost every day. I am in the same place with the money and career...

A Method that Might Help

A Method that Might Help Hey Guys, I came across a few techniques that might be very useful for all of you. To give a bit more context - I've stuttered since the age of 2 years old (according to my ...

I’m the same way. I also caught myself yesterday being so focused on what I was saying, rather than how I was saying it, I forgot I stutter for a few minutes and I didn’t stutter a single time. I have...

A little confused and fed up

A little confused and fed up So, I have been stuttering all my life. I won’t start that sob story atleast in this group. We all can relate. I am 27 now. I feel my stutter has gotten worse. I took a fe...

It’s anticipation I think mixed with anxiety. You have the answer and know it but you get stuck when you try to say it. In casually talking you don’t have enough time to go through those emotions so i...

I experience similar things. This is just my own theory, but I think certain words/ phrases have a long history of fear behind them, and context is key. Maybe in the past you’ve tended to block when s...

I feel you. I once accidently joined a voice chat in the discord. I awkwardly was liked “what’s up guys?” because I didn’t wanna be weird and just leave without saying anything. Immediately noticed th...

It is possible that their stutter used to be more severe. Personally, my stuttering was most severe in Middle School. My blocks would sometimes prevent me from speaking. A combination of age and good...

24m, chemical technology & engineering, graduating in a few weeks if I don't fuck up my bachelor thesis. Stutter was never a problem during my years in university, making friends wasn't an obstacl...

Most people absolutely will politely wait. Or, bc they simply are not previously informed of why no sound is coming out, they jump in bc they are concerned and want to help. There will probably be ...

I was a transactional lawyer at a big law firm - worked in my office many many hours reading and writing long agreements. I successfully avoided most face to face negotiations and could “pass” during...

Do you think you could speak better after the first minute. Be prepared to skip words, paragraphs or points if you are stuck on. Also don’t worry about what the people watching think, being worried ...

I have a class presentation Tuesday and I’m sitting my self :|

I have a class presentation Tuesday and I’m sitting my self :| Ok sooooo I’m fluent like 90% of the time right but when I’m nervous, stressed or when things in my life change I stutter. So I just fin...

Most of us do... It really doesn't work for everyone because as soon as the stutter kicks in everything learned goes out the window and our brain geta in full panic mode....

It will feel very rewarding when it goes well. Don't take an impromptu phone interview (big mistake I made), tell them you have to reschedule and ask if you should prepare for any technical/role-relat...

Thanks for this. Im thinking about career change as well and I’m really dreading interviews. Also interviews are in english which is not my mother tongue and for some reason that makes it worse...

I'm only a 1st year, but I'm majoring in mechanical engineering. So far, my stutter has been as much of a challenge as it was in highschool... People not understanding and making fun of my blocks, tea...

I literally can't talk to people like a normal human being. I turn red, and sweat, and run out of breath. I'm constantly embarrassed and people think I'm stupid. It's not just bad, it's miserable....
