I own my own gym… don’t let stuttering control you. Take the good days with the bad days...

Well, this comments section is a ball of angry hornets. OP, it’ll be ok. Each of us had our own horror stories of stuttering and lived experience with this burden. To some of us, its crippling, to...

A local NSA chapter opened up near me. It has been a blessing to meet other people who stutter. You can have fun and just not care about your speech for the hour you are there. It also helps prevent m...

I try making eye contact. Sometimes I do great but other times i block so much my head won't stay still lol. Does it make you flow better if you don't make eye contact? I've been stuttering 40 years...

October is International Stuttering Awareness Month.

October is International Stuttering Awareness Month. There are several of us who stutter, and with our unique voices, we show that stuttering does not make us any less capable of communicating, creati...

I am heavily into TTRPGs. My speech is still terrible but I don’t care. Everyone is patient. Love it! Recently finished up a 3-year Pathfinder campaign. Whole campaign was online. For our last...

Absolutely- when I feel low about stuttering I tell myself that. It’s honestly quite helpful. ❤️❤️❤️...

I’m an RN as well! Charge as well! Yes I stutter… sometimes it’s nonexistent, sometimes it minimal, sometimes its severe. Yes people can be jerks but I just give them a deadpan stare if they chuckle o...

It feels nice. But you don’t notice it untill you start stuttering again. I have had a quite severe stutter but have improved a lot. I have phonecalls occstionally with my parent where there is basica...

What if your ability to not express yourself is possibly influenced by a negative attitude about everything? Most accounts I’ve read say that when your outlook on life changes even your stutter improv...

I totally agree with all the things you mentioned and i was exactly the person you mentioned 1 year ago but since last year, I've been putting some effort into changing it and push myself out of my co...

Hi, all. Wow! I'm a newbie to this group, and just looked in to see what response my post had. Lots of negativity, for sure. Is it intrenched? Probably for most (the negativity). Yeah, a new idea come...

I could be wrong surely, but I can’t help but feel like there’s this undertone that if a stutterer managed to use positive thinking to get past their pain and struggles, surely their stutter or bullyi...

Wow, that is horrible. Porky was one I loved as a kid too, in spite of my stutter. He didn't make me feel self conscious for some reason (similar things normally would). With that said, I don't think ...

I am puzzled by the downvotes on your post and comments. We all share different degrees of this struggle, and those of us who were emotionally wrecked or paralyzed by shame and grief earlier in our li...

I am not covering a shit, I start talking, people see my stutter and they are like "nope Remember to not talk with him next time" People don't owe us anything, they have their own life. I guess you ...
