The biggest thing is going in with confidence, not being afraid to stutter, and just being yourself. If you show people that your stuttering doesn't bother you, then it won't bother them either. Somet...

This is awesome, and completely accurate. As someone who has also come to full acceptance with his stuttering, I can say all of this is exactly what helped me get to the point I'm at. Once you can acc...

General advice for everyone with anxiety coming here.

General advice for everyone with anxiety coming here. Alright, I see an enormous amount of posts linking anxiety and stuttering together. Mostly young adults. I'm not a frequenter of this subreddit, b...

No one is going to call you names, don't be fucking silly. For one, online dating is a mess. It's just not worth it because all the guys are on there looking for women, and even the worst women have ...

Thanks for the encouraging words. I agree with everything you've said, but we all know it's hard to put things in to practise and be positive about our stutters at times. I'm just in one of those funk...

I know first hand the kind of anxiety stuttering causes. It's crippling at times, and can wreck your self esteem. That being said, don't look to medication for your first solution. Taking pills should...

Not just women, people in general like confidence. I would recommend that OP concentrate his efforts on going out into the world living an awesome life. Online dating can be a huge time-sink with a ti...

Reading this made me feel very sad, and glad my family have been so awesome about my stutter. Basically, what your dad is doing is not cool. That is NOT how people treat you in "the real world". Besi...

My attitude about my stuttering is changing a lot these days. I've started blogging about it (helloistutter.com!) and have been talking to way more people who stutter. The biggest thing is overcoming ...

I really think this is a really important question. I'm pretty satisfied in my self-acceptance. I still stutter, I acknowledge when I stutter, I occasionally get frustrated by stuttering. But I accep...

I'm 17, and even though some stutterers would say I have a mild stutter, I still struggle and I still hope that one day it will go away - except I'm realizing it will not. But this slow realization t...

I definitely know what you mean, except I do this with other things other than stuttering. I think that's just our fear throwing fantasies over us so we just stay dreaming, feel good, and dont take ac...

I do feel this way a lot. I'm only 16, and I've been hoping since I was about 8 that my stutter would go away when I was older, I've kept telling myself it will get better... It hasn't and this has l...

Man I really wish you were at the NSA conference or I could find the video from the close ceremony. There was a father who was there for the first time and he got up at the end and went up to the podi...

Preach it, brother! OP - As it happens, increased fluency seems to often come with the increased confidence. Regardless of that though, most of the stammerers in the group I go to are much better com...

I personally strengthened a lot of my beliefs in what I need to do to get what i want. My goal is definitely not fluency, it's not even effective communication so much. I think I know how to communica...

Rapper with stutter

Rapper with stutter I suffer from a stutter, I've had it all my life I thought there was nothing I could do about it, nothing I could use to counter it but I have and that's rap, I started listening t...

What you're going through isn't easy. I've had a stutter since I can remember. I know it feels impossible to get out into the world and interact. I think the best thing is to take up a hobby that inte...

She gives me such confidence. If it wasn't for her, I would probably stutter much worse actually! She supports me on every sort of "public social event" such as ordering food and things like that. She...

presentation to you all, i have had a problem with speech since childhood (it feels like i always stuttered) that terrorized me throughout all public education and most of college. today, i was a mem...
