Thanks. Yeah at some point I probably will try to find something else since I am planning on moving anyway. I'm just not sure what I can get with my experience that would be comparable. Hopefully I ca...

Was the same here. Job was really well paying especially at a young age. I just had to give it up as I wasn't able to cope emotionally. I actually just couldn't continue working there. Keep soldiering...

Yeah it's been really rough for me at work. I feel like I'm only still here because it's the best paying job I've ever had by far and I really need the money. As far as when I'm off the phones it's re...

I experienced the same. Previous call centre employee here who was confident on the phone for months. Didnt stutter at all, I actually spent my lunch break taking calls.... then all of a sudden it pro...

Very cool man. I also think Harrison's book on the subject is the best. I do meditation (belly breathing for 20 minutes) each day before work and I feel it has helped with my stuttering and other aspe...

I know where you are coming from. I have stuttered my whole life but can really remember it being a problem in the 3rd grade. I have come a long way and have become very fluent in my daily routine/ ac...

You will have good and bad speech days. Just remember how you got that promotion. Hard work and skill. Let that be the thing that affects your confidence the most....

But objectively speaking, we are inferior. We can try to pretend we aren't but take a stutterer and a non-stuterrer, and if all their other attributes are the same, the stutter is less well-equipped ...

I'm literally in the same boat as you. Lifelong stutter but it was never really too bad until the first year of medical school this year. Seems like every day I have to do some sort of speaking whethe...

Do you mind telling me about your personal statement essay? Just how it has shaped you into a person that would be a good doctor? how so I am In pharmacy, looking to get into medicine in 2 years- I t...

It might have influenced me a little bit, but I wouldn't say it was the primary reason. I just find medicine interesting, and I have a personality where I really enjoy taking care of other people. Stu...

Has your stutter influenced your decision to pursue medicine? Did you end up mentioning it in the interviews?...

I'm currently in medical school, hoping to become a psychiatrist or pediatrician. Frankly, being in medical school with a stutter is extremely tough, but I've always told myself that I wouldn't let my...

Job advice?

Job advice? I'm a recent college grad, moderate stutterer, having a hell of a hard time finding a job. I got a call back about an account executive position that involves routine cold calling. Not onl...

I've always seen stuttering as my biggest weakness and so, paradoxically, pursued jobs where communication is key. Worked as a journalist for a year, got promoted to editor, then went corporate in a g...

I'd rather have a creative and sharp DM who stutters than a mediocre fluent one. Most of the attention will be on your content, not fluency....

D&D yaaaaaay! I don't mind if I'm a player, but as a DM I wonder how it'll affect the players if I'm the main one talking. I love world building so I figured I'd enjoy DMing....

Yes it is a good idea. You'll do well.The DM role isn't completely a story telling one, rather you have other qualities that will shine as well....

Going into the DM role... Good idea?

Going into the DM role... Good idea? So I've really been into D&D lately and I've had thoughts of playing as a DM (dungeon master). For those unfamiliar with D&D this is the person who is in c...

You should have a good chance. There's not alot of stutters in the military but some do make it When you go to meps just be as calm as you can when you talk to the doctors...
