This is a great list! For me it’s made me more empathetic, I can sense anxiety in other people very easily and I try to make everyone feel comfortable I think...

Made me understand that treating people with respect is paramount and the most important thing in the world. I want people to give me a fair shot so I HAVE to do the same back to them. Additionally, t...

Surprisingly enough, it eventually gave me confidence in myself, by way of developing my sense of empathy, critical listening skills, and the realization that I can achieve what I want despite obvious...

It made me an active listener and it inadvertently made me start to notice body language and tone of voice a lot more. It’s kinda weird....

That is a great list! I found that having a stutter has made me more empathic than most. ...

What are the positive side-effects that stuttering gave to you?

What are the positive side-effects that stuttering gave to you? For me these are: 1. I know loads of synonyms in my native language, which makes me seem more sophisticated. 2. I don't like when I'm i...

I guess I'm in a separate boat to everyone else here when I say it's fine if you don't have to do presentations in the class. The main thing about me and my stutter getting better or worse was confi...

Hello, I completely understand your frustration; as I also have a stutter. You seem to have knowledge about how to not let stuttering impact your life, but are you applying it? Do not think of your...

Things will pan out man. My stuttering has had periods of absence and extreme trouble but it’s all connected to your mindset. If your life is going well, your stutter will be noticeably absent and if ...

Yeah, I don't want to make it into an "item" we're carrying around. I think that makes it weird to conceptualize ourselves. Rather, it's a thing that happens - and we know. Perhaps I just don't like ...

I think I'm trying to express how we can conceive of something within our own identity without compartmentalizing. Stutter is something I know about myself, it's not an _object_ somehow. You see what ...

I second this. Also, u/nukefudge, what do you mean by "it's rather that its *fact* is something that has become part of me instead." Pardon my ignorance....

You're going to stutter, and that's okay dude. Allow yourself to stutter. Don't apologize, there is no reason to apologize. You have every right to speak, just as everyone else does in the class. You ...

A lot of people out there openly stutter and its just a part of their character. I used to openly stutter before I was 17, and everything seemed fine. But after 17, I became self conscious of stutte...

What am I? Trying to reach the stuttering avatar state?...

I am a outbount Telemarketing and also a stutter. I know stutter is taking me many opportunities but I have to embrace it...

Yeah, there is a difference between someone stuttering and someone *being* a stutterer. This guy is not a stutterer, he is actual a very fluent speaker--therefore it makes sense that the anomaly of su...

No problem! I know what you mean man -- "the iceberg phenomenon" i've heard it called and it's true! non-stutterers don't understand the feeling unless you tell them. The more I can be "open" with my ...

Absolutely not, but I'd be lying if said I didn't have my fair share of doubts. I'm currently a pharmacist and you just imagine the crazy drug names that I can trip up on when I'm counselling patients...
