I think it's because we put pressure on the sentence in our head and we don't want to stutter but still do. If you didn't care it wouldn't happen....

Thats so good to hear man. Did you just explain your situation at the start of the interview? I feel like my stutter mainly comes out when I feel nervous or tense. I just tried contacting a few speech...

Anyone else stutter only with specific people?

Anyone else stutter only with specific people? I have gotten a lot better with my stutter over the years but for some reason now every few months I get anxious and stutter when speaking with my father...

Did you ever treat your stutter? I'm about to apply for jobs and I'm just so nervous about stuttering during the interview sessions....

This has always been the biggest fear of mine. Or being pulled over and the cops think ur drunk driving...

Ya I get like that too when my stutter gets worse around people I’m comfortable with. That’s how I know I’m really stressed out (when I struggle talking to close family/friends)!...

I kinda agree. If people see you have sensitivity surrounding your stutter, they can use it against you or view you as weak or reactive. It’s better to not react sometimes....

Definitely not alone. Past experience, when I have applied for jobs. Company sends me emails all of this stuff so excited, and they want me. Until they call me on the phone. Then it's like their whole...

Ever feel like you are just lucky to have a job you don't deserve

Ever feel like you are just lucky to have a job you don't deserve I have a mild stutter (sometimes its really bad). I work as an analyst for a hedge fubd and it is a high pressure job. Most of the tim...

My mom told me that I used to bang my head on the wall when I was 3-4 and got caught up on words. Just out of the frustration of not being able to form the words I was thinking. I took speech classes ...

I've sort of tried it twice. Two for two they've walked away whilst I'm still blocking on the hello. There's never been a third attempt, and never will be....

Cold approaching with a stutter? :(

Cold approaching with a stutter? :( I have a somewhat mild stutter, I get blocks every now and then. I want to start approaching women but my biggest fear is blocking mid conversation. Anyone ever col...

That's super painful, I know. Especially because you know the person you can be. You know your potential, but the repressiveness and fear inside is stronger, at this present moment...

Authority figures, 100% The more value you place on their judgements, the more you will stutter. This is why we stutter more when we think someone is "cooler" than us. Do you find that as well?...

Oh my god the dreaded "Hello" or "Are you there!" So for myself, the way I had to deal with it back then was something that tends to be frowned upon I think. I would get locked out entirely as soon ...

Bruh you just described my whole life.. kind of. I developed my stutter when I was about 7 or 8, and it was quite severe but it went away mostly. It's sort of always been there since then, but only mi...

Phew I totally understand how you feel and I’m glad you ranted. I know personally when I have days like that I ask myself what is causing my stress because usually that’s when I stutter more. Then I j...

It's just a habit ( bad frustrating habit ) nothing else. When i want to troll my brother, I speak fluently. I get f**ked up when i come out of home and speak to stranger....

Fellow Canadian here, and I’ve had my share of customer service workers who’ve laughed at me or otherwise treated me with disdain. I’d hate to find out what the American counterparts are like. I’ve ...

It's hard to say how I'd handle it because it's so easy to take the high road when you're not in the heat of the moment. This kind of thing motivates me though. I mean I would work out, try to make ...
