I'm sorry that you are going through this. I found phone interviews got easier when I was open and honest about my speech. Most of my anxiety when I stutter or block is the perception of everything be...

I have a really hard time on the phone with any sort of call, even my family. I need the face to face to be a bit easier on me, so I can’t fathom doing an interview that way. The fact that you went th...

I’m in a different boat in certain ways, as for me stuttering is triggered by anxiety (primarily social anxiety). Like you, certain days I can manage to hide my stutter - in conversation, I do a ‘rese...

Take your ugly ass opinion and get the fuck out of this subreddit. Who do you think you are coming here trying to tell someone who just opened up about how stutter effects their everyday life and stat...

Hahahha you are such a meek guy, I guess people always like to whine on their bad luck. You better buckle up because life wont always cry because you "stutter". Also that hand is just a projection, sl...

Wow, you are absolutely fucking insane. I literally stated in my post that when it kicks off hard and I can’t control it, I stutter all day. What horseshit niche criteria do you judge other people tha...

You can do it. Very few people care and those who do do not matter to you. Your instructors have seen it all and will not hold it to you. Perhaps even, if you speak with them, some may let you present...

I get that momentum thing. It is worse for me in loud environments or with lots of particularly out-going people. And feeling ignored sucks. Especially if it is a pain in the tit to speak. I guess p...

I find it EXTREMELY difficult to gain respect and be assertive. I don't feel like a "man".

Becoming conscious of your thoughts and feelings is an incredibly important step. Often, we just feel the feeling (e.g. fear) and run before we are even fully aware why. It's hard to explain this in a...

What a blessing you have. My inability of flirting with women always piss me off so much. I even think that I know how to flirt with women but I am unable to reproduce it due to stuttering so it ends ...
