I’ve stuttered for as long as I can remember too. It sucks when you go through a bad period but in my experience it gets better. Try not to worry about it too much. I know, easier said than done. But...

You could frame it in turn of progress instead, I suppose. Like, you used to not be able to get anything out. Now you can get this prolonged sound out. If you keep at it, maybe those long sounds will ...

Thanks so much for sharing and I couldn’t be happier for you! It motivates me when I see posts like this because it reminds me that it can be overcome. Good for you and keep chatting!! ...

That’s great news - congratulations! I started new job in October and had my first review last week. My boss called me an extrovert as I am always asking questions. This makes me chuckle because I ...

A friend, my former fraternity brother, OAS AAS LLS, introduced me to my current girlfriend, and she’s one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met; her faults included. I’ve stuttered for as long as ...

I got the job I was interviewing for..and

I got the job I was interviewing for..and Now I'm mother fucking negotiating it on my terms because my stutter does not make me a lesser candidate than anyone nor will I let it. I posted a while bac...

We did an exercise where we said "the mouth, the teeth, the tip of the tongue" and we would repeat that over and over. We did a lot of alliteration like that and practiced breathing exercises. We als...

> Going "out there" and just talking boosts self confidence and helps to deal with the fact that we stutter, ironically reducing the problem the more we are at ease with it. I strongly agree with ...

Good to hear it's working (out) for you (no pun intended ;)). To be serious, it's also something that I \[M36, stuttering since childhood\] realized over the years and what is recognizable in many po...

A bit more of a positive post

A bit more of a positive post I've stuttered for about 8 years now. It has sucked, going to a therapist briefly helped but for the most part it's been pretty consistently bad. I never let it get in t...

Well, it changes you in so many ways. I always wondered what kind od person would I be if stutter wasn't part of my life. You can always be that person no matter what. Just don't let it kill you and ...

I can relate to pretty much everything you’ve said. I used hate first days in school/college because of the “introduce yourself to the class” thing. I used stress about how I might have presentations ...

I know how you feel. The anxiety you feel is real. It’s hard to get out of your funk because it seems you’re throwing gas on the fire. Find something that takes your mind off of this. Preferably somet...

Hey Mel! Congratulations, Google is a big deal. I know how hard it can be, I really do. BUT confidence is key. Remember your worth just give it your all. You only live once, as cliche as that might s...

Slowly but surely it will get better. This sentence really help me a lot. I know that it doesn’t matter what other people think about me, but I often forget this and let other people judge me in my mi...

presentation (a success!)

presentation (a success!) I did an oral presentation on one of the key themes of a novel that I studied. I prepared the night before, trying to avoid any blocks and stutters by changing my words and...

My stuttering is pretty much gone. It was pretty bad when I was 8. It remained bad through the puberty and became worse when I was 18. Then it hit the max when I was 22 and left met at 23. Unlike othe...

Support groups like this one. It’s very reassuring to know there are other people out there who stutter. However, reassuring doesn’t always mean happiness. For happiness, I like to get away from the w...

Your not alone man, stuttering can be horrible but I feel like we’re our worst enemies sometimes. Screw what others think (or what we think they think of us) and pursue what makes you happy. I know th...
