I reason I wanna come clean before starting the interview is because when I stutter during the interview the panel members give expressions which can be really off putting and lowers my confidence. So...

Yeah it's pretty hard to pin down. I stutter less when I talk to people that I know won't judge me for stuttering, too. I think stuttering itself is a neurological issue, but it can be 10x amplified ...

Today I stuttered on the word blood when trying to get a blood test. Usually I stutter in stressful situations like getting a blood test or meeting strangers. I don’t stutter around my family at home ...

It's kind of psychological.

It's kind of psychological. I feel I stutter psychologically, when I talk with my mom, I never stutter, but when I talk with my dad(whom I fear much) or teachers or strangers, I get blocked on some sy...

I've been there. I'm also a blocker and used to feel really down about my speech, it even gave me depression twice and social anxiety and sometimes I still doexperience those (mostly aocial anxiety) b...

my dream job is to be an animal caretaker of any sort. I’m already on the path to doing it and I’m going to be volunteering regularly at a local wild animal rescue. I suppose it’s much easier when yo...

I feel fine, there maybe a bit tiredness, but not much, I'm definitely not a zombie and can get through my days just fine. I'd say it's more I'm not scared to talk anymore than anything and it just ...

Disclosing that you stutter can help psychologically. You won't feel the need to hide it, and therefore you can stutter freely. For me starting to speak slowly and methodically helps with bad blocks....

I find it’s important to do something that relaxes you on the first date/ gets you out of your comfort zone. If you’re old enough to drink, go out for a drink and get comfortable! I find it’s easier t...

Yup, feeling out small talk is key for any relationship, especially if you want to see how they'd react to your stutter (most people won't care, the ones that do definitely make it obvious)....

Honestly, just be yourself. You don't need to tell them about your stutter but if you do maybe it will make you more comfortable = less anxiety. From my experience I've never told any girl that I st...

20 MG of Celexa and sometimes with 1 mg Xanax is helping! Nervous system / anxiety issue I'm not sure if you all can see my previous messages regarding stuttering or not, if not, long story short I've...

This is my worst nightmare. Someone needing my help or having to call 911 and not being able to speak or it taking too long and they die :(...

I deal with it by being forthcoming about it beforehand. First impression is super important, and we’re kind of fucked in that regard, so preparing the interviewer for it takes some of the surprise aw...

THIS! I've had a stutter for as long I can remember and always thought it was something that held me back (it is). So whenever I would stutter around people I don't know I feel embarrassed and withdra...

Mine is mild too but it rules my life…I wish I would just forget about it. Mess up that’s ok...

Thanks for the reply! Yeah i definitely consider my stutter a mild one as it hasnt impacted my job or relationships, just my own confidence in public speaking. I like that line 'it isnt who we are it'...

I'm in the same boat, I'm moving for uni soon and I'm terrified that my stutter won't let me finish the university and that I'll be left out because of stutter...

I hate when people say be confident. Christ I stutter when I talk to my family...
