Avoiding salons

Avoiding salons This just crossed my mind because I’m getting my hair cut today... does anyone else avoid getting their hair cut/colored/etc often because they get so stressed out sitting in the chair...

Stuttering is the worst. I absolutely agree. But it can be managed. Speech therapy and having a better handle on your anxiety can make a huge difference, especially since anxiety makes stuttering wo...

I completely agree with all of that. I’m hoping they don’t try to put down the fact that Leo’s character stutters a whole lot but i’m nervous it will, making the audience laugh at him. Might be someth...

I stressed myself out for the interview but didn’t even get the job.

I stressed myself out for the interview but didn’t even get the job. Now I’m left wondering if I didn’t get the job because they noticed my stutter (I stuttered a fair bit in the interview) or because...

I wont lie, that was actually one of the better portrayals of a stutter that I’ve seen in a film, at least based on that clip. Although now that I know that the character apparently has a stutter, I’m...

Same. I just had to speak in front of a class of 30+tonight and I want to die. It was bad...

I'm in the same boat as you, I'm 21 and have stuttered for as long as I can remember. I'm interning right now and find it so hard to speak to people I don't know and that's really limiting the connect...

Yeah I agree. My dad only stutter sometimes especially when he's nervous usually at interviews. Unlike me haha. :(...

Life with a Stutter

Life with a Stutter I am a 22 year old Male who has stuttered ever since I could talk. It was awful growing up but I got to a point where I could handle it and I didn’t care what people thought. Then ...

I’m 19 so I’m the same boat as you, and I feel the exact same way. My stutter is quite mild but it still makes me super anxious and stressed out. I try not to think about the future because I have no ...

I think the main reason why I don't stutter when I am on my own is that I don't have to fight for the right to speak. I have full control and don't have to deal with other people. ;)...

Yes, you will be. At least I have. However, things will improve not because you will get better, but because you will have to get better. For me, when I was young, speaking in a social situation wit...

Yep, everyone has dysfluencies in their speech. Feel fortunate that it's very mild. It sounds like certain situations are triggers for you- like stressful situations. Personally I try to focus on dia...

Oh, I see you're not into relativizing the term "suffering" a bit, then. It's become something you predicate about people way worse off. Gotcha. :) I would've told you that stutter is indeed sufferin...

>practiced it in my head for the minutes leading up Stutter tends to not care about what you do in terms of practice, though. :) I think it might actually add to your nervousness if you think you ...

Yes and I have also encountered this when I speak with a heavier voice. But the problem is in pressure situations I go back to my normal speaking patterns due to instincts and then I stutter a lot....

Just had an online interview on Skype and I stuttered a lot. The interviewer didn't realize what was going on so I blamed it on poor internet connection lmao. Anyway another opportunity down the drain...

Wow, I'm sorry that happened. I can totally relate to getting them right before bed and then it makes it even harder to sleep. When I was in 7th grade everyone took turns pairing up with someone from ...

My mom said to my dad saying that I know how my child stutterers, how he suffers every day, even a simple conversation is hard for him.... It feels painful, I was in tears almost but I don't want the...

All the time, man. It's like you suddenly decide to pipe up, stutter over yourself then feel depressed immediately afterwards because you could've NOT sounded like a retard but ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ it's so fr...
