I'm 38/M and my journey with my stutter has essentially followed the arc of radical self acceptance over the course of my life. I say arc because there are still days, weeks, periods, etc where I noti...

It’s always been a major fear of mine. Not only for the stutter, but I’m a black woman with adhd, so my meds show up on a drug test. I have gotten pulled over once, but the cops were surprisingly supe...

Don't know what to think. Help.

Don't know what to think. Help. I'm 19. When I started college a year ago I met a guy, he's the best friend I have and one of the best people I know, he stutters (in a kinda severe way) and I learned ...

Those repetition games never worked for me. I'd be perfectly fluent in troubling consonants during a practice session, and then stutter on the same consonants out in the real world. Reading a script i...

I’m so sorry, people can be awful. If you have the strength, you can take this up with an office in your school. There should be an office that handles disability or inclusion, this is awful from the ...

Yes, please follow up with the university to be sure you're not penalized by the professor. He could allow you to present just to him privately. Sue...

Agreed, I don't like stuttering in presentations but no one in my class ever gives it a reaction or something the only reaction I got was my friend saying"i can see presentations are harder for you" b...

First of all, I'm sorry that you experienced that, you did not deserve to be humiliated, in fact, no one deserves to be humiliated like that. I'm more disappointed with your professor though. In my Se...
