I have a stutter that's mild but can become moderate in stressful situations and I just had a job interview a few weeks ago for a healthcare position. There were many other people at the interview who...

Bro this is just rude. There's a ton of people who have trouble functioning because of their stuttering. Social anxiety from stuttering is a real thing. What are you trying to get from your comment?...

You are welcome. I am passionate about nursing. I am also like you. I have a very mild stutter, but can pass as being a fluent speaker most of the time. But then it comes in waves that I have no contr...

Thank you for such a thorough response. I work as a resource nurse and I float between the ER and pretty much every other ward in our acute hospitals. I think the floating is now getting to me... addi...

I know people think they're being helpful but like... What makes you think I need help with the last word of my sentence? Unless I'm taking a ridiculously long amount of time thinking of a word and it...

This hit me right in the feels :( I've been through that many times and most of them turned out exactly the same. I guess I was just very nervous and anxious. The only thing I can say is to keep going...

How do you know you failed the interview? Did they tell you that you didn’t get the job? I’ve had many interviews that I felt I “flopped” because of my stutter but ended up getting the job. And other...

Been there man. I was reached out to by a recruiter where they were hiring for basically my dream job. I was able to be pretty fluent with the recruiter, but when the time came to talk to the employer...

I had a phone interview today, I'm well beyond 18, and feel the exact same way. I wrote two pages of notes for a 20 minute call and was able to *maybe* get through 1/4 of it. This was for a senior e...

I get what you're what saying but doesn't most of that fall under the social anxiety and self consciousness part I talked about? There are a lot of things in human conversations that are not there i...

hey, i am an organic chemist, too! i have a phd in the field, did a post-doc, and am now working at a pharmaceutical company as a process chemist. ​ i'm a real-deal, bona-fide stutterer. ...

As an aside, fear doesn't reside in "the subconscious". Fear resides in _you_ - which is where you did the work. :)...

Feeling down :/

Feeling down :/ This is just a vent message. I don’t know anyone who stutters in my circle of people so it’s nice to come here to talk to people who understand what I’m going through. I’m currently ...

I agree with your findings. As many people already said, when you are free from anxiety in situations, stuttering would be considerably less. I think same is the case with your experiment with the bot...

I've found that speaking in front of a camera is a very anxiety inducing experience. Even more anxiety inducing than talking to a person. You become really self conscious of your appearance and every ...

But aren't you virtually doing the same thing in the experiment as you would in a real conversation? In a conversation, your brain first hears the message and you spontaneously think of what to say an...

That's really cool to hear. There's a lot of stories about stutterers who were able to become succesful actors, but none of those people seemed to stutter on stage. Not being able to say my lines, blo...
