Scared to stutter or scared to speak?

Scared to stutter or scared to speak? Sup guys, so I just want to hear from you guys and your opinion on this. For everyone who has a stutter or any speech problem, do you guys like to have conversati...

Hmm this might be because you’re more passionate about the controversial subject so fear isn’t an inhibiting factor anymore. For me personally it gets a lot worse lol...

I’ve to record a French presentation and I’ve been putting it off for ages because I’m scared of this happening...

This is truly a tough one because I'm honestly rugged in some departments and sensitive in others. It's definitely made me more tough-skinned in life in general, because living life (F19) with a sever...

It depends on the social context, in my experience. If I'm trying to make a point in a big classroom then it's gonna sound pretty disfluent, but if I'm making a joke at work and I say something contro...

I get so nervous that I have to mention it, but I feel like it has prevented me from getting multiple jobs because they require talking to people so much....

Man. I applaud you brotha. I've been doing intercollegiate speech and debate for this year (until the whole lockdown) and lemme tell you... It has been one hell of a journey. Imagine being in front 5-...

I find that I have to think a little bit longer and more effortful to really figure out which words I want to say and in what order. This makes me stutter because my brain goes back and forth trying t...

Haha yeah being an edgelord is easier for me too. It's probably less anxious when you're knowingly saying something edgy so you don't care about the listener's approval. Meanwhile in general conversat...

Wow that’s really inspiring! That is truly a dream. I’ve been wanting to do a MFA program but the thought of me reading my work aloud has always discouraged me. I even missed out on a reading, even th...

Apparently I'm in the minority here, but it was way too stressful and I only made it like 10-15 minutes in when the doctor was having him talk with marbles in his mouth or whatever....

Yup deeper voice does project us as alpha. I used to get comments from friends like that. it's can be stressful....

Is there a way to practice becoming a better speaker online?

Is there a way to practice becoming a better speaker online? So I've matched with this amazing woman on a dating app, but thanks to you-know-what we're not gonna be meeting any time soon. We're also ...

Still haven't watched it. When I was watching IT I flinched every time Bill stutters, I know it's good representation and more than just actors faking a stutter. But then again, watching King's Speec...

Any Stutterers here work at a call center or a job that requires constant phone conversations?

Any Stutterers here work at a call center or a job that requires constant phone conversations? I usually try to avoid applying for jobs that are based over the phone because of my issues with speech. ...

Yeah that makes sense— you essentially become contempt with the block which thereby releases it. By contrast, if you care too much about that block you will be subject to anxiety and it will be very h...

Why is this happening?

Why is this happening? I’m 19. A year ago, maybe two, i’ve had issues in communicating. I stuttered way too much and struggled to talk to others because the words couldn’t come out. I would want to ...

opposite for me too. Super sensitive about everything and feel a lot of pain and anxiety over social situations, often dwelling on them for days afterwards because I could tell someone noticed my stut...

I got stopped while stuttering amid my valedictorian speech a few years back by some girl yelling “take your time”. She interrupted me, further distracted me and made me even more self conscious. What...

Idk but for me, when someone tells me things, I feel kinda calm. I feel like they aren’t judging me...
