I just started University this year. I present whenever I can. I realized that when I stand up and speak, I speak better than when I'm sitting down. I developed this over 2 years of presentations and ...

Yes. There are too many times where I really want to answer questions I know, be a more open person, actually be able to tell jokes, and not be afraid to talk to girls for the first time. I'm managing...

I haven't read all the comments, but most seem to lean on the negative side and how this is only temporary. That's destructive speculation. I guess the temporary part is true, but good for you! Doesn...

Try to talk to someone and try your best to speak fluently, even if its one sentence. You should get some sort of excitement from the success and use that excitement towards the need to talk more. ...

Sorry, but I just disagree and can't relate to that. Suicidal thoughts are not caused by stuttering. All the things you listed--bullying, lack of support, dismissive parenting--these have nothing to a...

I've gone through hard times. I've lightly contemplated suicide at times, but nothing serious. I think deep in me I know suicide won't solve any problems, it's the easy way out. I've always thought th...

I stutter and I've been a teacher. None of my kids took up stuttering, except if I stuttered modeling an unfamiliar word to some students, they would repeat it with the extra syllable, and I would sto...

I don't believe that stuttering is something that you overcome, rather it's something that you learn to deal with. I have a moderate stutter and until this year, I always used to hide it. I'm 35. It f...

No problem. I say it's not as tough as you think because if you learn to accept your stutter, that's a huge step towards overcoming it and being in control of the way you speak to a certain degree. I'...
