I’m 33 and have stuttered all my life. I get really frustrated and I get super upset almost every day about something I wanted to say but couldn’t. The only things that have helped me have been being ...

disclose at the top and stutter hard 🫡 chicks actually dig dudes who stutter ...

This. There are a lot of important point in there. I'd also add that people who stutter aren't a homogenous group. Everyone's stutter and their experiences with it are going to vary from each other. ...

It’s going to take a minute buddy to accept your stutter and be ok with it. I’m 18 and I’m just beginning that road to healing within myself and loving who I am. I’ve started disclosing my stutter to ...

Congrats! Getting a job is scary enough so you are so brave for putting yourself out there. My first job was at a supermarket, and whilst a great place to work, you will run into a-holes or people w...

Completely agree, there is nothing worse than assuming someone’s preferences when talking. I am the kind of person who is more than happy to talk about my stutter to people who want to listen. Try and...

Did you disclose your stutter before joining? Are other stutterers participating? I’m curious just like OP, but never had the courage to join for fear I’d be again the only one holding everyone back...

Question: Did you disclose your stutter? When I didn't disclose, I was more focused on my stutter, and I would bomb the interview. When I did disclose, I got it out there, and I focused on the P...

You may benefit from reading my recent post, which talks about how blocking can lead to unintentional lying like this....

I've had the same issue of stuttering on my name in the past too all the time. I haven't really introduced myself to many new people this week but will this weekend and see how it goes and report bac...

An interview is the best place to begin by disclosing. Make sure to not apologize, but just inform, and then move to next topic. And do it within moments of interview starting, otherwise you may chi...

✔️Treat them like everyone else ✔️Ask them if they prefer texting, face to face, or phone ✔️ Don’t complete their sentences( it makes us even more anxious) as for me I hate when people say ( it’s ok; ...

I love that you're asking this. I would say something to them in person so that the message isn't distorted and is crystal-clear. Emails or texts can sometimes give off a different message. Ask how...

Thank you everyone for your responses. I didn’t expect such traction, so it is really appreciated. They will be required to do a daily standup. But they mentioned during the interview that they did t...

Be patient Don't interrupt Dont t try and finish their sentences/words Don't treat them any different than your other employees But also, Don't put them in a difficult situation that exacerbates th...

Makes sense! I wouldn’t “notify them of your disability,” because they would be biased against you from the start. Sometimes it can help to share that you stutter and get that out there, but it m...

Treat them normal and be patient when they are speaking. It may be uncomfortable for you at first because it can be socially awkward if you are not used to it. But, be patient and give them your full ...

Email them before if you can, if not let them know at the beginning of the interview that you stutter. They can’t discriminate against you for this; but more importantly, this will make you more comf...

I would advise you to let them know right before the interview begins that you stutter. This has always helped me in the past and it lessens my anxiety during the interview. I hope it all goes well ...

Ask how they prefer to communicate (email, text, phone - it won’t be phone but ask). Never ever finish their sentences....
