Of course it makes a difference in communication. But it's not necessarily messing up the end goal. And of course it's hard for us. But it's not necessarily stopping us in the general things we want ...

They’re not asking you to ignore it, because you can’t. They’re asking you to overcome it in a way. If you accept that you have a stutter and that it will happen then life will become much easier. Tru...

Humming before you say your name helps. A slight, low hum of the "M" sound, then say your name. For example, mmmJohn. Another way is to tell yourself that it is ok to stutter. Yes, stuttering sucks, b...

That’s great to hear. It’s odd how the things we perceive one way can be totally different to someone else....

People are going to view your stutter in the same light as how you portray it. What I mean is that If they see that you are ashamed of it, that you hide it and are embarrassed, then they are going to...

I have the same problems as you. What I personally do is to not make a big deal out of it and accept that it'll happen. The main thing I do though is make fun of myself, which then leads my friends to...

I asked her, and it turned out that she actualy just came up with it when I talked to her. 😂 It funny how it worked so well when I think about it, but at the end of the day she has a lot of experienc...

I agree with this 100%. I've never really been a big fan of the famous people who stutter whom you never see stuttering. That just defeats the purpose for me. ...

I've been extremely lucky. I was never bullied, I had fantastic speech therapists, I have never viewed having a stutter as being a negative thing. Yeah, its frustrating, it's inconvenient sometimes, b...

Maybe something more neutral? I suspect a lot of people may look up to these succes stories and feel like they _must_ succeed in a similar manner, regardless of whether their own stories are different...

I just found this subreddit, and I already love it.

I just found this subreddit, and I already love it. My whole life I've had to deal with my stutter. I now know there are lots of people like me, and it makes me happy to know there are people like me ...

Thanks for that. It makes sense. I try to take the view that my stutter is something I accept. And any day I don't shy away and go talk to people, is a good day. ...

I thought it was hilarious. I've grown very used to my stutter, I make fun of myself all the time. Pity they changed it. I loved it. ...

I mean, personally, my stutter isn't that bad. Stuttering isn't a negative thing in my eyes, it makes me unique, its a part of who i am and I wouldn't give it up myself. No way I'd give it to my enemi...

Just wanted to share a little victory: I've been consistently running a D&D game!

Just wanted to share a little victory: I've been consistently running a D&D game! **Warning: Longish** (tl;dr at the bottom) My favorite hobby is tabletop RPG's, more commonly referred to as "Dun...

Wrong Adrian Peterson pictured in this Sub... Hello - I just noticed that you have Adrian Peterson pictured in the header of this Sub. That Adrian Peterson who played for the vikings is not the Adria...

That's awesome man. I had a similar experience as a senior. I performed a poem in front of the whole school without stuttering. It felt great. This was 16 years ago. Somehow I've let my stutter contro...

Not really. For me personally, a bit of humor helps me get through my stutter (i love Porky the Pig). If we let little things like these bother us, then it won't help us. I use to be the same way, whe...

Hey guys. I just performed infront of 900+ people on friday. I can finally say I did it. (With long ass story)

Hey guys. I just performed infront of 900+ people on friday. I can finally say I did it. (With long ass story) (Link to video below) I conquered my biggest fear and shit on its grave. It’s my last yea...

When I stutter for the first time in front of someone, I will simply say, “Yes, I stutter” and move on. It has never been an issue. And I, too, have worked with people for years that never knew I s...
