I just started college a couple weeks ago. Honestly, nobody cares about your stutter. I've found that I care about it 100 times more than anyone around me. If they're worth your time, they'll be a lit...

As you build confidence in the language, it’ll definitely get a lot easier. Regardless, I currently go to an American university, and truthfully, very few people actually care if you have a stutter; p...

As a kid it was ”Why do you talk so funny?” or ”Why are you so quiet all the time?”. Now it’s my own set of thoughts about what other people think of me thanks to social anxiety....

As a fellow stutterer, I always tried to pretend like it didn't bother me when I did stutter and it didn't seem to bother anyone that I was speaking to. If they can see that you're comfortable with yo...

Can confirm. Dated a girl with a stutter and I hardly noticed it, and it was something that she was very self conscious about but the right people won't mind or make a big deal...

Yeah I guess the flirting question was kind of rhetorical because I find that in person flirting is so dependent on what you're able to say in the moment. (I don't know I could be wrong, maybe others ...

If social anxiety caused stuttering half the population would stutter....

That’s a good joke. I remember the first time someone told me I wouldn’t stutter if I just relaxed. At the time I truly believed it but my social anxiety always got in the way. I honestly thought I wo...

A little joke I say to myself

A little joke I say to myself “I don’t know if I stutter because of my social anxiety or if I have social anxiety because I stutter”...

Any word that I don’t use on a day to day basis and/or it more than two syllables is always a struggle for me. And social anxiety can make any sentence take a full minute to get out...

I look away because it's generally hard for me to maintain eye contact when a person is talking to me (it makes me concentrate on the eye contact and not on what they're saying). Also, a person with a...

I have no clue. Sometimes I can barely get a word out when talking my friends or parents but when I’m talking with a girl I rarely feel a block. It may be a confidence thing. I would say, put yourself...

That makes sense. That's my mentality with it usually, I guess in these situations the idea of rejection is so overbearing that I lose my regular confidence....

I've found that at least when I'm acting confident, even if I'm still stuttering a lot, it still changes how people perceive me and they don't think I'm incompetent, whereas I think that if I'm acting...

Omg I hate stuttering on my own name! Cause usually it’s when I’m introducing myself to someone and I hate giving off a stutter as my first impression, especially to potential employers...

I get the same thing usually. I feel like people will either ask you about it themselves without you having to bring it up, or they'll be made uncomfortable by you talking about it. People like to l...

Hey man, I know your struggle. Find new friends. Act like you don't give a fuck about what anyone says. Bullies have the most fun when the bullied person starts to cry or get defensive or offended. If...
