Panic and anxiety attacks sounds like something you should see a professional about. High blood pressure also. How come your doctor-father hasn't referred you yet?...

Can stress and anxiety from stuttering cause high blood pressure?

Can stress and anxiety from stuttering cause high blood pressure? I am pursuing an MBA and I have 2 presentations tomorrow which has been stressing me out a lot. I usually have panic and anxiety attac...

What? Your case is the opposite. Stuttering **CAN NOT BE CURED**. Sometimes it goes away as you grow up. Both things are okay. If there's anxiety and stress, it is because of common people's perceptio...

yes that is very common. My second language is English and sometimes I stutter more in english than in my native language. Maybe in your case it's because of lack of proper practice of the language....

We don't need a phrase to be "opressed" we are the most unheard group of people IMO. We can't even express ourselves to people in person. It's so difficult. All those replies you just said are ignoran...

To me I think its really disrespectful and demeaning because sure it might seem like a joke to some people...until they actually meet someone who stutters and realize it isn't a joke and how we feel o...

Job interview

Job interview Hello, I am a student in uni and I applied for a residence job thinking there won’t be an interview but there actually is and i am scheduled for it. Now I want to know if it is okay that...

That’s what I was thinking, too. This is a really gross take and especially with all the people agreeing with it. I have severe social anxiety as well as my stutter, so even if I didn’t have it I woul...

Yeah that makes sense, I was just curious about what everyone thought because I’ve been seeing the phrase used a lot more often. I was also reading a comment thread on Instagram by someone (who I don’...

I have a generally mild stutter, but I can have a reeeally hard time beginning a sentence. It's like some stutter God just blocks my entire throat. But when it comes to speaking in front of a large a...

I have my voice issue (which most people misdiagnose as being half-asleep or nervous), then when I go to an interview in a mask I can't frickin' see (glasses fog up, even with every single tip I've tr...

Ok, interesting. Then it might be a strong evidence that your type of stutter is caused by social circumstances. As I even stutter when talking to myself, I believe that my stutter is caused by resp...

As a non stutterer for whom public speaking has never been a challenge I agree. People are bitching about "no i dont want to go out there I cant talk im afraid" and whenever I hear that I think of wha...

Correct me if I'm wrong but you're saying that people can have fun with a stutter? Because I don't exactly understand that, it seems to me that if you're trying to overcome anxiety for stuttering, wh...

It’s strange, I was just thinking about this the other day. I remember back when I was in speech therapy, the person asked what we would do if we were 100% fluent, I said I’d give a speech. Fear of p...

You need to get one thing straight, you're talking about communication, not simply speech when you're referring to anxiety related to public speaking. They're not the same thing, speech is only a part...

Why can't a billionaire complain about overpriced items? Who are you to judge other people's standards? Just because we have a very clear disability doesn't really give you the right to feel superior ...

I totally agree. I also hate when people tell me it’s all about “confidence”. Like ok yeah I’m sure if you told a disabled person in a wheelchair to be more confident that they would magically start s...

Just doesn’t make sense

Just doesn’t make sense I’ll never ever in my life be able to grasp or sympathise with non-stutters complaining about public speaking, being nervous speaking to girls, or any form of speech related an...

i don’t think your stutter has anything to do with a mask, personally. it could just be getting worse because your going through a change in your lifestyle right now and you could be stressed, anxious...
