Awesome! I've had a couple of days of being reasonably fluent. I think a big part was finding this group and discovering as far as having a stutter my experience is has been very normal. Everyone seem...

I wish I didn’t stutter. I’ve been shy my whole life, I’d really like to be outgoing for once...

welcome! i share your sentiment on pretty much everything, and i'm pretty much the same age (31), it's amazing how small the world can seem sometimes :-D...

Probably. Seriously though just remember no one gives a shit if you stutter but you. People may look at you funny or whatever, but that's just because a lot of times they are caught off guard and don'...

She doesn't care in the fact it doesn't change her opinion of me but I think she'd care how much in affects my life if she really knew ...

I stutter alot when I'm excited too :) I don't think my wife even particularly cares about it but I'd say that's more my fault from doing a good job of not showing that it bothers me ...

Yes! I began feeling this way at a big company conference yesterday. You get to a point where you run out of energy or just stop caring....

Nice job. I particularly like your line about “paths of difficulty.” It’s easy for any one of us who stutters to feel alone and lose sight of the fact that other people have other difficulties whethe...

Honestly the real deep true answer to why I want to join may be left unanswered because that little part of me doesn’t know. The surface of the answer, and even this goes so far, leaving little margin...

i can def relate to that one but dont sweat it dude stutterers are smarter than normal blabbers :D ...

Yeah! Honestly keep your head up. Cleo is right, some days are harder than others. For me the best thing to do is not to think of it. Whenever I am talking, as a stutterer, I am not even thinking abou...

There's a difference. A stutter can be life altering while having red hair is not....

Using 'theeee' and 'ayyyy' as opposed to 'the' and 'a' to slowly lead up to a blocker and avoid it with a smooth 'run-up'. It must come across as though I'm thinking about what to say next. I believe ...

Not wanting kids because they might inherit a stutter is like not wanting kids because they inherit red hair. It's a defining characteristic but ultimately they will be far more than just a person who...

Given that your fiance knows what it is like to be a stutterer she would probably be able to provide incredible support. It's tough though, I know I have many vivid memories of being terrified as a c...

i'm married, and i stutter, we are thinking of having kids in a year or two (i'm 99% sure we will). my wife says that she's grateful that, if our kids stutter, they will have a good role model to show...
