It’s the worst part for me. I wish I could be the guy who makes people’s days and chats them up in public. I also feel bad for others if they have to hear me struggle. It’s embarrassment/shame more ...

I was in 7th grade. I still remember the moment. I was in class. I was a backbencher. My friend was in front of the class fucking around and I wanted to call him to come back to his seat. I started to...

Does anyone else makes weird moves with their hands after they terribly stuttered?

Does anyone else makes weird moves with their hands after they terribly stuttered? I do online school and I'm 1 on 1 with teachers. It helps me so much. Before that school was hell to me. Was skipping...

The other day, a girl told me she liked my hair, and she was being so nice to me. I couldn’t even say thank you all I could do was smile. But it looked like such a fake smile because I was anxious. I ...

Do you have stutterer's guilt?

Do you have stutterer's guilt? I'm not sure if anyone else experiences this but I feel guilty in avoiding conversations with nice people over the fear of stuttering. I always hope that they don't thin...

I’ve have extreme dislike for every SLP I had because they treated my dysfluency like an articulation disorder, and I left treatment more ashamed than when I began. Please learn about the emotional a...

I also hated doing them in school. Most of them went pretty ok. Got stuck on a few words but they weren’t bad overall. There were however a few that were absolutely horrible and I hung my head in sham...

I’m not “born with a stutter”, actually. I developed it in the last few years. I did hint at it in this post but I should’ve made it clearer mb. But not to be blunt here, I care absolutely less that ...

Post-Presentation Humiliation

Post-Presentation Humiliation I will never get used to how I feel after presentations. The feeling of tryna hold ur tears back and feeling hopeless will always stay with me. I’m sick and tired if I’m ...

The stutter isn't a "thing" in his mind. Respectfully, this can feel very invalidating and hurtful and young children do feel that too. Had this happen to me as a child and can safely say it made my s...

Just a little vent. I was pretty much saying that I hate stuttering and I wish I can fix this problem. It would help so much and my life easier 🤣...

I know this isn't what you were hoping for, but ultimately what you're doing is what would be taught to you in speech therapy. You already figured out a technique to physically help you, which is not ...
