I get so annoyed when that happens. I have to regulate my emotions and try to remain calm lol I think that helps me not to stutter as much....

Yup and I hate it because I was somewhat fluent. Then I'm not when I have to repeat. So frustrating...

Yes, all the time.   Nothing is more annoying to me when I say something without stuttering only to find out they weren't paying attention or missed something I said....

It annoys me so much. It takes so much effort for me to say anything so why would anyone want me to do it again?!...

100% when someone is talking over you and keeps asking you questions like "What?", even before finishing the word is so frustrating and it gets me angry...

But I can understand if you're a young parent it can get frustrating. She was around my age which is 35 and I being 16 at the time. What she didn't know, I was just as frustrated even irritated cause ...

My mom was also sometimes impatient when I was young. Till I said one day when I said, never fucking mind! I can't remember her being impatient again after that. Other people I don't know cause I don'...

That's a reflection of their own impatience, and I doubt they do it only with stutterers. You could be completely fluent, but some people are self-absorbed assholes who can't get over themselves. Thei...

Yes. It's like some part of me knows it's hardly worth talking to someone who isn't listening, while another part of me tries to continue the social convention of talking, causing inner conflict which...

My job requires it quite often. I work in healthcare security and sometimes you have to be very assertive with people. I’m 26 and have been able to curb a lot of my stutter but when tensions get high ...

I wanna raise hell and make this an opportunity for Stuttering Awareness. Fuck this piece of shit....

I've bluffed my way out of a stop. When the cop asked if I had been drinking, I got indignant and angry. Told him I had a speech impediment. He apologized and let me go. Another time, when asked to d...

Yo wut da fuq. You aren't a freaking quitter!! Get your shit together mate, take a break, fuck therapy. Just calm down buddy, you gonna be okay. This too shall pass and remember you are not alone, lik...

My mother once told me to just ‘talk normal’ and I’ll never forget it. So many people just simply don’t get it? Even the ones closest to us, and they also don’t realize (hopefully unintentionally) tha...

I’ve found reading books by myself aloud has helped. Also, failing a lot makes you kind of numb to it. The fear turns into frustration. Which is still negative, but more manageable imo...

Stuttering affected me, a woman, for 30 years of my life and I'm in my 30s. Lots of pain and isolation my whole life. People called me stupid and bullied me. I had tics along with stuttering but was ...

Haha, I got a kick out of the edit. Imagining a divorce solely because “I can’t handle the stutter anymore”....

I relate with this, I had an ableist teacher in middle school when students were picking groups obviously I was left out because of my severe stammer people thought I was stupid but the project was ab...

Big presentation in 3 days

Big presentation in 3 days I've had my stutter my whole life(I'm 16), and it really does affect my life. I'm no less outgoing because of it but I don't participate a lot because whenever I have to spe...

Yeah, in first world countries at least people can hire you for the disability quota or whatever, people that have difficulties can have a chance and get help, i'm in the sixth country with the most s...
