I studied political science and had to give a lot of speeches to get my degree. It actually helped that I stuttered because it helps me be more creative when writing. I would imagine a stutter not b...

Hi there! Thanks for the quick answer, I generally have to agree with most of the things here, especially so with the music. With the point about blaming yourself, you shouldn't beat yourself up about...

It's a usual thing. We all get to face such situations. Just don't let yourself down just because you can't say some words properly. If anybody gets annoyed or dislikes your speech then I think it's h...

I stutter too, and the fact that we stutter is nothing to be ashamed of. Adjust your crown, and remind yourself how special you are and will always be. The way you feel is not strange at all, many of ...

This behaviour is not acceptable. I was chosen among 8 people, even if I stuttered %60 during a job interview. Even if I stuttered, I convinced them that I was ok with that and I didn't let it kill m...

Like so many on here, your story resonates with me. It’s so hard, day after day. Just know, it can get easier. Tricks and fluency techniques can help in the short term, but acceptance really is the lo...

I feel like you too are in the acceptance camp, like another commenter down somewhere. My suggestion would be the same as the one I gave him. Acceptance should mean that you don't try to avoid stutte...

I wish you luck. I was on Zyprexa and Zoloft and it turned me into a zombie. I choose traditional techniques such as diaphragmatic breathing over meds now. I'm happier now that I accepted my stutte...
