I totally agree with you! I'm a 23 years old doing my masters, and in college I realized that the best way to improve my speech was to not avoid conversations, presentations ecc. Some days are bad, bu...

I understand this. I've had this happen, but I try to really laugh it off the older I get so people don't see my anger behind the stutter. I do get angry at myself, but it always goes down better if y...

I don't think it's a big deal; non-stutterers don't realize how rough stuttering is, so they don't take it too seriously. Honestly, that somewhat relieves me, because it implies that if others don't r...
