Everyone has a very personal relationship with their stutter - some embrace it, others hate it, some ignore it, some are embarrassed etc - as a stutterer, I just want to be treated as a regular person...

I feel you on that. I wouldn't say defective though, it's just a disability. In our case, it's harder because it's not a visible, physical one. Also there isn't a major lobby for awareness or inclusiv...

Hey doc! I’m gonna take a wild guess...ortho? I’m just a lowly IM myself. How bad is your stutter? Does ortho have an abundance of speaking opportunities? Most of the orthos I know are strong silent t...

I can understand not ever being able to be an air traffic controller but being rejected from being able to survive takes its toll on your sanity after a million times. I really don't have any left, i'...

Full stack dev here. I just got promoted to tech lead, all "thanks" to my stutter 🤣 (stuttering led me to computers...). I would recommend you to aim for remote work as that would ease the social lif...

I graduated from college doing many early semester intros. ive been there. Introductions will be the worst. I once was in a meeting with the assistant CIO and couldn't get my name out. I took my time ...

Designer / front end dev here. I was able to get through interviews and such without too much trouble. I just focused on having awesome work that speaks for itself instead of trying to sell myself ver...

Full stack dev here - you should be excited to be a skilled tech person in this day and age! Don't be nervous. The demand for us is insane. I've stuttered my whole life (i'm 27), with a traditional s...

Hey there! I'm a graphic designer/videographer/web designer and a person who stutters! I've always been into the arts but looking back to when I decided where I wanted to take my career, I'd be lyin...

I use Sean/Shaun/Shawn (spell it however you want). I usually use my own name but if I can't be fucked with the hassle of battling through saying my own name it's an easy compromise that's not too far...

Everyone stutters on different words/sounds. There are no magic names. I say use your name. Avoiding it is only going to make it more of a thing and you can't avoid your name in all instances. ...

I used to love Vince, and I found this out a while ago also. Cool to see him talking about it on his Twitter. If you listen to him in interviews, especially earlier ones, there are hints of it. But on...

My stutter code name used to be Sean. It was nice and easy for me to say at places. It started to get weird when I'd be with someone I knew or the other person behind the counter has heard me say my r...

That's my hunch as well. Rowan Atkinson, the guy who played Mr. Bean, once said that he overcame his stutter by getting into character....

Yeah I’ve owned it and daily driven it for 9+ years, it’s a 6spd manual coupe, silver grey over black leather interior. Very nice car. I picked up a Tesla Model 3 six months ago (I was one of the fi...

I'm also a SLP who stutters. I almost failed a graduate placement because a supervisor (school setting) wasn't comfortable with me stuttering in front of children. She was wrong. Sadly, there's a lot ...
