I've had that a few times, but in the last 10 years or so have found my first name easier to say. I went by my middle name in college for a year but stopped doing that. I get a lot of "did I just wak...

Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed response! I've found there is definitely some truth in what you're saying, my newest job requires me to make phone calls daily and I've been getting...

I talk on the phone regularly in my job also. My stutter goes up and down. I have sometimes had success with doodling while I talk. I have practiced my "speech" so I can change around the words and ...

I commend you on working at a call center. The fact that you're willing to work somewhere like that despite the difficulties it represents says a lot about you. With that said, maybe this isn't the b...

4 days late, but I hope this reply reaches you. I'm a doctor that stutters, and yes it's difficult sometimes but in no way is it a reason not to be a doctor. When talking to patients, you get the word...
