I would hate to hear my so-called "friend" say this about me. You don't like your friend because of a disability they have and aren't willing to be considerate. That's on you. You're supposed to be...

I can't express how comforting your post is. Becoming a lawyer always seemed impossible for someone with a stutter since the profession demands strong rhetorical abilities. From my experience, when y...

Think I can almost unanimously say we'd all rather be alone for life than have a "friend" like you blowing smoke up peoples ass...

Alright, I’m someone with a neurogenic stutter. I’d like for you to put yourself in the shoes of this other person. They suddenly developed a life changing speech disorder. All of a sudden, people in ...

Thanks! I'm happy to answer your questions. I was the only male in my Masters class and was the only one who stuttered. I've found it to be a really powerful tool that both parents and patients appr...

What’s the worst thing that can happen? You get laughed at. The assholes are going to laugh, worthwhile people will listen to you, you’re not giving people a chance to get to know you....

guys, **success** is not “speaking fluently” but feeling heard. Your stutter isn’t the problem. The way you’re treated when you stutter — that’s the problem!...
