Confidence is key man. People don't react to your stutter they react to how you react to your stutter ...

I know what you are feeling, because i tend to do the same. I'm 22, been hiding my stutter for years. It's not severe, but more than enough to bother me and affect my life in many ways. Over the ye...

I met my wife in a nightclub. She likes me the way I am. Thats why she became my wife. We are happy together and we have one daughter....

It’s not that bad to call it inspirational tbh. I get some of us with stutters wouldn’t like it, but I guess that’s just personal preference and kinda irrelevant to mention. Honestly I would call th...

Hi! I know you have wonderful intentions but I hate being called “inspirational”. I think I find it more cringe-worthy as I had breast cancer and it makes my eyes roll when people tell me I am an i...

I think the key is being confident. If you confidently tell someone you have a stutter, it will make them comfortable because you're seemingly comfortable with it. If you don't mention it, or act emba...

That's really a great idea about adding your stutter as a strength. Dealing with the reactions we get on a daily basis really does add strength to our character. I know I am very forgiving of people w...

Thank you for this comment. This is so important and it took me a long time to figure out that accepting, owning and managing my stutter was going to be the only way to live my life the way I want. AN...

I was thinking the same thing. I used to hide my stutter and people would treat me like I was crazy when it happened. When I started telling people I stuttered, it changed their perspective completely...

I'm going through the same thing, We grow and we become comfortable in our "home" with people that know you so well, they don't judge you, they know the way you are what how you are- and they accept...

Being a vet, when I passed out of my masters, I had an offer from a very reputed MNC. Went there for an interview, the panel was astonished by the depth of knowledge I had, it went quite well but with...

My best advice is diaphragmatic breathing and good relaxation techniques. You can practice this a lot at home and then it will become much more natural. Also, slowing down a lot when speaking helps. ...

How about simply accepting the fact that you'll stammer/stutter? Can't comment how effective that will be for you, but often, just the mere acceptance of fear is enough to get rid of it....

No need to feel defeated. I've stuttered my whole life and I don't feel that way. Wish I would have stopped at 6 though, you missed the worst part of it! I think the more you are aware and think about...

I am 47 so just don’t care anymore but it took me a long time to get to that point. I love Mexican food and always struggle on burrito. I have asked my friends to order from me and it’s during those...

Agreed. And the kind of people that are jerks about it are just that...jerks. You don't want those kind of people in your life anyways. ...

I used to be like this, but as I've grown older it doesn't bother me as much. Most people I've come across aren't dicks about it and will genuinely try to be helpful, and if they're rude I make it cle...

Yeah mine was recorded as well. My teacher was really nice and understanding and said she would not remove any marks for the stammer because she saw that I knew what I was going to say but just had tr...

I agree. It does help to come to terms with what you're feeling. Reflecting through such episodes has gradually allowed me to accept them as part of who I am, even though I still hate them and it feel...

Yes, but maybe not in the way you think. It was the journey through college and everything that went with it that improved my speech. It was all the presentations, phone calls, projects, etc. It was v...
