Stressed out about getting a job

Stressed out about getting a job So, I’m 15 years old and I’m expected to get a job soon. I do want a job, but I’m expected to talk more and get my stuttering in check before I can even try to get a j...

Hey, I have never tried effaxor. Heck I don't evan know what that is 😂, but for the last two months I've been living on a simple rule explaned very detailed in a book called "The subtel art of not gi...

New Job on Monday

New Job on Monday Monday I start a new, “real” job in the federal government as a young professional. I’ll be working via video and phone, and I’m a little nervous about the whole experience. I know I...

Thanks man, you have made alot of sense and I appreciate your sentiments and struggles. I have never taken a week of to think of my stutter, my mind has become conditioned to it. You are 100% correc...

same here, way more than i should! and if that isn't hard enough the way people look at you is sometimes enough to silence you for a good while...

Yeah legit I think our stutter brings on the social anxiety which then makes it even worse...

I have the ultimate combo, social anxiety AND stutter 😍😍😍...

Great insight. I think my stutter comes out in the following: * Anxiety - thoughts of **incompetence** and that I'm being judged by my stutter. I have been seeing a therapist to help reframe, but i...

I feel you all.

I feel you all. I don't have a stutter, but I do have a bit of social anxiety. My mom has a really bad stutter and she just finished a phone call where she struggled a lot. Growing up watching her go...

The one that always gets me is "your mind is just moving faster than your mouth can". It's impossible for a non-stutterer to understand what it feels like and I know they are trying to empathize, but ...

If you’re anxious it’s going to be hard to be present. If you’re anxious and a stutterer you’re most likely going to be thinking about trying not to stutter and most likely stutter more. I agree but I...

It’s not insignificant. This is the key. Keep doing little encounters like this until they become bigger and longer. It’s exposure therapy. We are scared to talk to strangers because we perceive ourse...

Yup, that is what stuttering is I believe. It’s not just a speech problem, but rather something else going wrong in your brain that is causing you to stutter. Besides my stutter, I have bad ocd issues...

Comfortability plays a huge role🙌 why do you believe you stutter more with others ?...

Wow you are one of the first people I've seen rationally look at there stutter correctly in this sense. Alot of us believe we need to stop stuttering first, then we will stop feeling anxious but it'...

I see some comments like brainstorm before hand and prepare but honestly that will only put you in your head and we always stutter more when we are in our head. I'm interested in what's makes you stut...

Some of the symptoms you describe kinda remind me of Tourettes, even. With a stutter I believe most times there's not much to do than accept and practice so it gets reduced, and on your position, I be...

Was it always that bad? No offense but I can't imagine getting married to someone who can't accept something that's that significant a part of me....

When I’m timed or restricted by time. Like when I’m recording an audio message and I see the recording timer thingy. And if I have to say something in a small amount of time . Like when someone tells ...

I FEEL THIS! I got told once by my art high school art class teacher my work was a mix of 'the best' and 'the worst' in the class....And thats stuck with me because that's how I live my life. I try to...
