You just spoke for everyone 💯. You would still hate it like anyone else but the stutter makes it 100x worse. Dont worry about the voice bcs i just asked my sister and she said she doesn't listen to h...

Is anyone else completely uninterested in speech therapy?

Is anyone else completely uninterested in speech therapy? I've tried it in the past and I've found it to be unhelpful. It just gives me more to think about when I'm trying to talk, which makes me more...

How are you able to have a normal life?

How are you able to have a normal life? I have been stuttering since I was a child, as a defense mechanism, I isolated myself my whole life because of it. Which obviously had a major effect on my m...

Stuttering at work

I think he’s a great communicator! Nothing to “fix” here. I really just worry about him getting a teacher who doesn’t understand his communication needs and kids teasing him, which goes back to self-e...

Started in 2nd grade a kid mercilessly bullied me to the point of tears in the back of the bus. I was sobbing wailing and everyone was laughing at me. Most recently tho I was working as a delivery dri...

I hate school

I hate school Idk if its just the Norwegian school system who does this, but being talkative at class is so important that even if I get A’s in my written assignments they will still drag it down to a...
