Hey there, I've had those days too, still do. On some days I'm fluent as anyone else but on some days for some reason I'll stutter everything I say. For a long time I let it get to my head that people...

I'm sorry to hear that. I actually know another stutterer from my NSA group who openly stutters and works in a call center. Some days aren't super bad, other days are really brutal. After the brutal d...

To overcome stuttering you must face it. And it would be easier to face it with other fellow stutterers, we would all be very understanding....

I see where you're coming from, just because you deal with it, doesn't mean it's still not a nuisance and thus, you aren't completely ridden of the negative side effects if it and it still, in your mi...

I've always had a fairly severe stutter so it's always been open. I've read books, been a member of the NSA for a long time and tried numerous therapies and even i'm still trying to accept it. For som...

Pretty much this. Since I entered adulthood, I've begun caring less and less about my stutter. Sure, sometimes when there's a social situation requiring me to speak in front of a group I'll get a litt...

It seems to me that you do not stutter that much if someone who you know a bit does not notice that you stutter :D But as an answer I think no one really accepts it. I can tell friends and adults gla...

My stutter is pretty mild, but I haven't given much thought to it for 10 years or so. I still notice it when I really trip up and repeat a syllable more than twice, but otherwise it's rare that I eve...

Maybe so. I just feel like "acceptance" sounds like this sort of positive and closure-like term. It's not like stuttering is no longer a prevalent overhead, just because I've (purportedly) "accepted" ...

I think so, it is no longer an obstacle or an excuse to stay quiet, rather, my interpretation anyway, it seems to be like every other persons disfluencies. Like op, I usually hide my stutter and so pe...

Hm, I'm not sure I "accept" it. Like, I stutter because I want to speak, but does that mean I'm "open"? I'd rather _not_ stutter, and every time something comes out that's _not_ stuttered, that feels ...

How does it feel?

How does it feel? How does it feel to have accepted the fact that you are a stutterer? I dream of doing so myself, but I'm too scared. And due to my way of handling the stuttering, not many people kno...
