Has anyone use Mark Power's Stuttering Therapy in Newport Beach? Would love some feedback! i am very interested in using his 2 week intensive therapy that he claims will give me immediate results. How...

Clicked the article expected it to be written by a woman and wasn't surprised. For woman having a stutter usually is not a disability when it comes to dating. For men on the other hand it's a very dif...

In job interviews I have usually mentioned it right at the start, saying just so you know I stutter, but it does not impact my work in any way, and if you have trouble understanding something I say pl...

I believe it's absolutely possible to "overcome" it to a point where it has a minimal effect on your life. It's never going away completely & will always be something that must be managed, but it ...

If it puts your mind at ease - then yes. Actually, it's good for the interviewee to know so they can make your job easier to do (should you get the job). ...

What is our consensus on job interviews?

What is our consensus on job interviews? do we mention the stutter at the start of the interview? mention it at the end? or dont bring it up because they are going to notice it anyway? In my case I...

This may not be what you want to hear. I've had mine since 2nd grade, and while I was picked on for it for a year or two, I eventually just became what I was kinda known for in school (that and everyo...

You can do all of that, it just takes a little bit more time and people dont really care either way. What people do care about is how you present yourself and looking at all your threads that cant be ...

I'm also in the military & an instructor, so weird! I'm a Military Training Instructor (drill sergeant at BMT) in the Air Force. I'd be interested to talk with you if you're down for it....

Hey good for you man. I'm pretty good in school as well. I mean like most stutterers I'm actually doing well in all areas of life EXCEPT for my social life. I don't really tell myself I'm not good ...

I honestly wouldn't care about other people either , except that sooooo much of my life success depends on how I am able to present myself to them. If I come off as an awkward babbling buffoon as I ...

What I have to say is that, even though I have a stutter, that doesn't stop me from being myself and showing how much I can accomplish. I'm an activism in secular values and through that, I've gained ...

Dude. Ive had people talk to me in that high pitched "aww he's shy" kind of voice. That does make me think I'm retarded. And if charisma were that easy how come there are sooooo many people like me c...

I cried when I found this discussion..the struggle is real

I cried when I found this discussion..the struggle is real I literally broke down reading this discussion, not because your posts were sad, but because stuttering was/is a huge part of my life and is ...

You nailed it. They will wait. Everyone has something, they won't tell you but it's true. Look I'm not saying it doesn't suck. Oh boy do I know! However, it isn't perceived as unintelligible, or ...

I do it. I also smoke a lot of weed so I usually get super high and take a couple shots then go for the interview. I agree I feel more relaxed and I get more fluent so I dont see anything wrong with i...

I find if I have a few good stiff drinks the night before the interview helps. I find the slight hang-over eliminates the stutter and I can focus on giving the best answers....

Just wanted to say, before selling my soul to the devil and going corporate, I also worked as a journalist - for three years, on a tropical island off Africa. First I covered the general news beat and...

You can definitely work in journalism, my friend! My only skills in school were in English, and at your age I took physics and chemistry in high school instead of advanced English purely because I d...

I'm a 16 year old stutterer, journalism is the only career I really have an interest in and aptitude for but I think there is no chance in me working in it due to my stutter. If you don't mind me aski...
