Yes very hard to watch / hear for me too. I think the reason for me is that I internalised the belief that people who stammer are somewhat inferior (as I probably think so of myself) therefore any tim...

Yeah it triggers a lot inside of me.    I've gotten better at it but overall it makes me uncomfortable which is a shame ...

It is so unhinged that I don't want to see myself in that position. May be that's why my brain forces me to not watch....

Am 59m, i simultaneously wish a video (or audio) of my younger self (~9-20) exists and at the same time am so happy one doesn't! I know i had horrible stutter - but really don't recall specifics. I ...

Is it just me or you guys also can't watch a video of someone/yourself stuttering?

Is it just me or you guys also can't watch a video of someone/yourself stuttering? I have noticed this thing in myself where I just can't watch a video of myself, or someone else stuttering. It brings...

Oh my god. That’s one of the reasons why I stopped talking. I just keep to myself and shut my mouth, because I know anything I say will result me in stuttering...

yeah i feel you. it really hit me the other day when i was trying to read something to someone and they said "i'll just read it for you" and had me hand it over. i felt so useless, ashamed, and angry...

I have nothing positive to say about Lee Lovett. For all his advertising of a "cure" for stuttering, you will still have a stutter; you will just put in more effort to hide it. I've read half of this ...

I had a teacher in high school that was convinced my stutter meant I hadn’t studied (because, in her opinion, it was showing I was insecure). I literally memorized her lessons word for word, and even ...

I don't know man i CAN or better i could speak English and Telugu but I stutter every single word that comes outta my mouth regardless of language. Doesn't matter if I speak at a slow and relaxed pac...

Horrible. I stuttered, wore glasses and had a massive overbite. The bullying was non stop. By the time I got to high school, I stopped speaking completely....

the issue is that I think all this stuttering happened bcz I get a trauma from finding out that I don't have a father bcz he left me and never looked for me and having only my single mom living in my ...

I’d rather have blocks on every word for the rest of my life than be this person. They must have a miserable existence....

Yes, but my stuttering is so mild and random that, when I randomly stutter people are surprised and their faces show horror and pity. I hate this. You have another issue but, nevertheless very embarra...

I feel you. 5 years back, I used to say the exact same things youre saying, and i used to come up with qll kinds of explanation on why i was struggling at work, why i had high anxiety, etc etc. Then ...

The shame you feel comes from the part of you that doesn't want to 'accept' the stutter, and thereforefore fuels the negative feedback loop. Imagine you're talking to a baby, or a dog or a wall, would...

Not caring about it actually dwarfs the anxiety that comes with stuttering so you can speak more fluent and also think/react better in the situation. But you should psychologically figure out how to d...

Strangely for me it’s the opposite. When I put myself out there and manage to be fluent, the more fluent I become. Whereas if I put myself out there and stutter, the shame reinforces it and then I nee...

Only recently, after i had uncovered what i think the root cause of my stutter is* had it even crossed my mind. But yes, i wonder... i ponder... i dwell... i spiral (just a little). I mean, the stut...

I heard it from a girl I had a minor crush on and it totally took the wind out of my sails on that note...
