I just accept that embarrassment is inevitable and move on with my life. The number of times I have embarrassed myself via stuttering is easily in the thousands. Once you've accumulated enough embarra...

How do you not relive your bad speech moments?

How do you not relive your bad speech moments? Today in class, I got called on and my pace was fine because I rehearsed the lines in my head but then I stutter. I took a deep breath and tried again. B...

Me too. I flipped out and started beating on a few ppl that kept harassing me everyday but they never left me alone and I ended up getting jumped and sent to the hospital I had to leave my 1st high sc...

Sorry. I overcame my severe stutter by embarassing myself to the point of not caring....

I find that words that are more in your throat and tight in the lips are harder to say. For example, I work in fast food and one word I constantly stutter on is onion. The o is so tight in my throat a...

I understand you 100%. I work at a dispensary and have to communicate with customers all day 5 days a week. People always make comments about my stutter, smile and laugh at me when I’m talking. It mak...

Exactly, you hit the nail on the head. As you pointed out, if we don’t like our own stuttering or feel afraid to show it, how can we expect others to accept it and be comfortable with it? It’s somethi...

Thank you for the advice. I had not been self conscious of it for a while until this just happened. Going to try my best to put it behind me and move forward....

Thank you. I thought I had accepted my stutter and it hasn’t been as bad the past few years but for some reason I just locked up at the worst time possible. Going to try my best to put it behind me...

The worst just happened

The worst just happened My first week at a new job. I’ve been through some layoffs, bad jobs, etc. so this one really means a lot since it took some work to get here. We have a zoom meeting today wher...

But like you, i did dread the possibility of having kids who stutter before my son was born, so it wasnt as easy or straightforward as my earlier comment made it seem. thinking back now, a large amo...
