I’m not sure if he does as he’ll look at me like 🤨 then look away whenever I start to twitch . I’m pretty insecure about it so i hope he doesn’t know...

I'm 31 and still stutter just as bad as I did when I was a kid. Even now I haven't fully accepted it as a part of myself, but I have grown to care less. One thing I've learned though is that people n...

I'm 35. Been stuttering since I was 3. My 20s were awful but that was mostly on me. I was depressed and every time I stuttered I would beat myself up. Now I'm on Zoloft. My stutter hasn't gotten bette...

i currently work at a nightclub, not a job anyone really expected from me but it works out great, i never have to speak to anyone unless theyre asking for something we dont have which is rare, and eve...

I have a mild to moderate stutter, and when I have to give presentations (which I do frequently ), depending on the audience, I will typically include an “about me” slide where I mention that I do hav...

Honestly, go with your gut. I decided in HS that I was going to take a stand against my own stutter and began taking jobs where I was the face of the company. Meaning, I was the first-person people sp...

This is what helped me best: 1. Practice “singing” through words. I don’t know how scientific this is, but I’ve heard that singing uses a different part of your brain than talking, and I’ve never onc...

My stutter is severe and I couldn’t hide my stutter or be covert with it even if I wanted to...

People who stutter hear it immediately. I am 100% sure about this. I think that most people who don’t stutter or don’t know anyone who stutters might not notice it so they think it’s rare. One time I ...

Almost everyone who talks has repetitions at least sometimes. Lots of people have frequent repetitions that are minimally impactful, bc they are able to move to the next sound easily. Fewer people g...

A memory wiping machine would work for those who stutter psychologically, one press and boom. No more perpetual torment anymore...

I remember finishing high school hiding my stutter. I only spoke when I knew I was in a phase of reasonable fluency, and here's something that goes against what everyone is saying in the comments: I w...

You know maybe one day they invent a chip that can be installed near the brain and it distracts us or smoothens the connection while speaking so the fear of stutter and stuttering itself goes away...

I’m not entirely disagreeing and I don’t know his life but it’s important to remember that covert stuttering does exist and is still stuttering. I don’t stutter when giving presentations but I do in...
