Ive made great leaps

Ive made great leaps I have stuttered since I was 8 years old. Really tough lil one since I grew up abused as a child. It was small in my eyes at the time but looking back it was pretty bad. Recently ...

Just had a conversation with no stutter

Just had a conversation with no stutter I don’t know how I did it. I was just so calm and collected. Stuff like this never happens, so when it did, I was ecstatic. It has really motivated me to go out...

It can be hard but with the right person it doesn’t have to be. I’ve been with my honey for three years now and my stutter hasn’t hindered our relationship at all. In fact knowing he loves me regardle...

This meant a lot, thank you. And you’re right, if anyone has a problem with what we can’t control, that’s on them, it shouldn’t hold us back. Thank you!...

This has just made my day. Knowing that I’m not alone with my problems truly is encouraging because people like u are the support. But to address your comments, I really like how u said we need mental...

I was going to say the same thing about stutter being a filter and will add that my (now) spouse told me how embarrassed she was when we first met and we went to a subway sandwich restaurant.. Any oth...

Yes, but you need to find someone who is patient and doesn’t care. Engaged and getting married next year 😊😊 The right person is out there for you too!...

Yeah... it's really hard to find the right one. Tbh alot of people will be embarrassed by you, or being around you. They're the ones you don't need. The ones you do need are the ones who will listen t...

as a person who have blocks!!it is annoying when ur face freezes and no words come out!!! my friends "say that again until i say without blocks" they help me a lot!!they give me time!!i talk to my fri...

Can anyone else relate?

Can anyone else relate? Was glad to find this sub tonight, wanted to get this off my chest. I think I've always had a mild stutter. Is it awful of me to sometimes wish my stutter was worse? At present...

Don't give up, you're not alone! It's a battle for all of us and it does get easier as you get older. My stutter was a lot worse in my teenage years and it was only when I started to accept it, get pr...

You're not alone. It's a lifelong battle for most of us, even if it becomes more tolerable as we age. I think the first step is acceptance. Then you realize that it shouldn't define you, then you'll b...

that’s very strange, i’m the opposite. though speaking is usually not fluent at all i was classically trained on several instruments and that’s the only time i feel fluent. music is my savior and it’s...

i think you can try it. even if it doesn’t grow, it still means you took the courage regardless of your speech to do what you want to....

JUST SAY YES.

JUST SAY YES. 1.This semester, I had an oral presentation- scored 98% - highest grade ever- with two really chauvinistic or racist or just bullies or just idiotic groupmates to boot. 2. Said yes to ...

I'm actually kind of lucky bc my former stylist never talked while doing my hair which was absolutely fine for me. My current stylist has been a friend of mine for many years so I know it won't be tha...

This is a good way to look at it, to use it as an opportunity to practice. I’m making a concerted effort these days to not do something just because I’m afraid I’ll stutter. It’s hard but worth it ☺️...

Yes, when I was in highschool I never got my hair cut. I had a massive 'jewfro', girls actually kinda liked it. Now I am fine with barbers, I have 1 guy I have gone to for years and he knows... to jus...

How do your parents/guardians respond to your stutter?

How do your parents/guardians respond to your stutter? Curious how they respond when you stutter and their general attitude towards your stutter in general. For a little of my own context, my mums t...

Well, you stutter. So do I. But I don't hide it. There's simply no reason to. People have all sorts of traits - some of them are convenient, some are less convenient, and some are outright hindrances....
