Aside from the above mentioned, stutterers know that they are at a “competitive disadvantage” and will work very hard to make up for it in other areas. This is my experience at least....

I 100% can tell when I’m going to stutter. Usually I can word switch around it (which is why I’m perceived as more fluent than I am), but I intimately know the sensation and the kinds of sounds / situ...

I think some people might not even be in the habit of talking about their stutter at all (or have personal means for it). Whether they'll arrive at it one day on their own is an open question, but we'...

I remember the first day of each year in my teenage years in school when I have to say my name, what hoppy I like etc. Those were nightmares and I had to act to go the bathroom just to avoid it. Even ...

The words I avoid mainly just come and go and they are relatively easy to just dance around with how to say them, but I cannot say my older sister’s name (Milana) or my friend’s (Ifani) when talking a...
