Do you ever have good days where everything is going your way, and bad days when nothing goes your way? That’s what my stutter is like for me. When I hardly stutter, I feel like I’m fluent for once in...
Maybe? I mean personally I dont get nervous when I speak regardless. I dont care if I stutter because I know I will. But on stage, I have to agree, it's a different energy. ...
I always thought that my stutter is a 'filter': it helps me to choose the good people, who accept me and love me no matter what. I don't need those ones who think stuttering means being numb. So if th...
I think it's more likely she just felt bad for you and didn't know how to react. My advice is next to you see her just own it's and show her you are OK with it. My experience has always been if peopl...
Worked as a mechanic with another older gentleman that had a stutter about the same level as mine. We both had the same humor about the stutter, so would joke about it all the time. Occasionally, we w...
Yeah bro it’s all about confidence. I tell them I stutter usually a few minutes in if the topic comes up, but in a way where I show them it doesn’t bother me. And that’s that, none of them have seen i...
Yeah it has. It’s more of getting over the fear of being judged. I just don’t care what people think about me I just get the job done ...
Of course! Glad to hear you have such a positive attitude - I think that's key! Best of luck with the IB exams, they're a beast but totally doable....
Yes, it is! It’s a long story on why the time extensions don’t apply to me. It’s a total mess, really. It’s a story for another day but I’m beyond pissed about it. It’s a harder path (and hopefully mo...
It sounds difficult but sometimes I’ll start by saying “I might take a bit of time, I have a stutter”. Say it confidently. And do NOT apologize for yourself. Then you will feel freedom to speak. ...
Since stuttering is considered cyclical, Im not close to fluency ALL the time, but I've gotten pretty close this year. My stutter was moderate-severe when I was around 11(ish? I dont remember much of ...
Sounds like you really havn't came to terms with your stutter. You claim it isn't a problem but you cannot answer without saying what is easiest to say, not what is true. You don't have to talk to ca...
That was really cool. I am in the same shoes as you are. Thanks for sharing it with us. Amazing bro....
My stuttering journey
My stuttering journey I feel like "journey" is a little too cheesy but whatever I've had a stutter since i was about 7. It all started happening around the time my dad died. It was probably a shock o...
Totally agree. I got over it after growing up. I don’t really care about my stutter now. I give talks and conferences all the time....
They are but I find owning your stutter helps. Take the steps you need/can to adapt to it and see it as a part of you. I realized that no matter how angry I was at my stutter it wouldn't make it go aw...
Hard to say when it started, but I remembered stuttering by early grade school. I say moderate because I didn't stutter every word or syllable, but speaking at length to anybody was torture and any fo...
Yep, that's correct; although if I'm in a fine French restaurant or travelling in Quebec, I can still get a little anxious ordering as I'll flip to rusty French and I'm not super-confident with my acc...
I would say I'm near fluent now just with the occasional block - this would have mad 15-year-old me cry tears of happiness. The biggest thing for me was getting comfortable with just being me around ...
I’m 51 and by around 38 I passed as fluent with most people-ie they couldn’t tell I stuttered. I still had blocks but I had mastered enough tools by then to appear fluent. I still stutter pretty bad...
