Huuuge congrats! This is an amazing story. I think it’s beautiful you want to use your degree to create a foundation. Something great I came across was Brian Sellers. Watch his podcast interview on ...

Fuckin amazing. I had an interview last week and that was the 1/10 times I walked out feeling happy. Everything went well and I don’t think the interviewer would believe me if I said I have a stutteri...

I once had a great first interview at a restaurant for a hostess position. They loved me but said it was down to me and one other girl. I didn’t have a car but I used Uber to get myself wherever I nee...

about 5 years ago I had that experience every single interview, i literally not just blocked on words, but fully froze and mumbled nonsense. Now I have had countless of job offers and am very happy in...

YES! I'm a 26F now but I went to a support group for the first time when I was about 21 and I say regularly that it (and aptly timed speech therapy) changed my life! Having never met someone else who ...

You summed up my life and current reason of depression in this story. I hope you achieve your goals to the best of your ability....

I feel that more people should be aware of stuttering. While it does hinder conversation, you seem to be more than qualified for the job! Look into the other opportunities. It’s amazing you’ve come t...

Me and you both, I love speaking and sharing ideas, but yes having a stammer holds me back soo much. Find people who do not care about your stammer, find people who will be patient. Really you will b...

This is has happened 3x in my life. Once at 30 (for 3 months), 37 (for 6 weeks), and 38 (2 weeks). It was full blow fluency and it was amazing. When I say fluent I don't mean "few blocks and was copi...

My personal acceptance only came when I became a father in my early 30s - I had to be an advocate and take care of my daughter (along with my wife of course) - I found this emboldened me and stutter o...

Yep, Waterloo - I made sure not to be near Ezra this past Sunday, that's for sure. Lol, the impromptu portion was too much for me in the first meeting so clammed up and I didn't participate (and they...

Magical fluent days

Magical fluent days Sometimes I have days (seemingly rarer) whereby I'm almost fluent and I feel like I'm 'supposed' to feel...then that day passes and I spend the rest of the week trying to figure ou...

Self hate isnt going to make anything better. A lot of people will encourage this type of ranting behavior, but I hope you stop feeling sorry for yourself. You are a smart capable individual gettint t...

This is exactly why I believe speech disorders are some of the most awful disabilities. Your stutter prevented you from succeeding in something I’m positive you’re great in! More research has to be ...

What's the first you would do if you woke up one day and your stutter was gone?

You live and you learn. You will succeed in better opportunities that are more meaningful for you and your career. Trust the process and good luck....

Thanks - it will get better for you too. It looks like you're in the KW area also, so what improved things for me may help you too. ToastMasters has some really good (supportive, inclusive) area clu...

Good luck man, like I hope it works out for you - its a hard road, but in the place where I am now, where yeah I stutter etc but feel comfortable with that: it feels kinda worth it....

thanks for such nice words, and yes I won't give up :') I would never let stuttering destroy my life and my future goal. I'm working on it and tbh I am getting better but that's happening VERY SLOWLY....

You are 10X more courageous and have THAT much more bravery just by participating in it than any other member. That is really something to be proud of. I had to read a few lines as part of an induct...
