Right? My entire attitude toward stuttering is that it shouldn't be viewed as this terrible, sad, disfiguring characteristic; and that, as a disability, it should be treated as such-- it's widely frow...

Hey brother, I know this was a long time ago but I still want to say Im proud of you!!! Our best weapon against stuttering is not caring. ...

The poster titled the post "reduce stuttering". There was nothing mentioned about cure other than the link to the website itself. I think going by science here is not going to help our situation as p...

Unsolicited Comfort

Unsolicited Comfort I want to know the stuttering community's thoughts on this situation. A couple of weeks ago, I was talking to a friend and I stuttered. This was not the first time I stuttered aro...

Hey man! Been through it all throughout highschool. Truth is.. who cares? Hear me out. You should have that mentality. Here is the main reason; stuttering usually worsens when one feels anxiety. It c...

I have no answer nor anything that will add to already given replies. So, "Like a boss, damn it you will deal with high school like a stuttering baws!" ...

Stuttering is a perplexing problem with no clear way of curing it. Some people just advise to just accept that you are a stutterer and accept that you may never be cured. I could never accept that. I...

I don't know if there's any conclusive figure for inheritability, but it's pretty sizable. That said, it can skip generations or not. I used to worry about it too, but like you I know when I have kids...

Sometimes I really appreciate when people guess. If it's correct I get a huge relief. I never get offended if they don't....

I'm in a fraternity and have a stutter, and all of my brothers are aware of that and it's not a big deal at all. Don't worry about your stutter separating you from fitting in or anything like that; on...

We all do - the thought is that our name belongs to us..we're not able to substitute another word to replace it or escape the situation. You have to say your name, one way or another. I usually end ...

Before I went off to college I was the same way as you. In high school no one carried about my stutter I was fine with it. Going off to college I was scared and didn't want to stand out. For years my ...

Joining a Fraternity with a Stutter

Joining a Fraternity with a Stutter So like most subscribed to this subreddit I stutter. I would say it's a mild stutter and generally only occurs at the beginning of sentences with troublesome sounds...

Some things to consider: * You're about to go on a date with a 10. In my mind, and likely others that means you aren't shabby yourself! You are 10 material, don't forget that! * A good ways to relax...

I have the same problem. I'm fluent in most situations, but when it comes to saying my name during introductions, or if I have to tell my name to someone at a kiosk or a counter, I tend to trip up. It...

Yup, I had a really bad time of it too, especially when introducing myself. Ended up changing my name (not legally though) and I much prefer the new name. ...

Nope I wish there was. Accepting that I was going to stutter on my name, which I do now makes it much easier to deal with....

Yes I stutter on my name considerably. I've gone through phases of not saying my name at all, shortening my name, or just mispronouncing my name so I can rush through the embarrassment. From my pers...

Mention it, if you feel the need to. If she's worth your time, it won't matter to her. As for the date, try and relax, be confident. She might already know. You got a date with her, so she's interest...
