I’m 18 right now and from the age of 2 all the way to 15 I was severe abs afraid to talk at all. Ever since I started talking more ironically I’ve been down graded to mild in my freshman year of colle...

Agreed it's not worth it. Stuttering always kills the vibe it's better to just keep quiet...

Late onset stutter

Late onset stutter Hello, I’m new to this community and have been reading a lot of your guys posts on stuttering. I am 20 years old and didn’t start stuttering until about 2 years ago when I was 18 an...

Well if I stutter when I say a joke no ones gonna get the joke...

Oh everyone takes the time to hear me out. But the point is I can't make a quick, humourous, remark, and it's obvious that they're often uncomfortable and unsure what to do when talking to me. Many ...

I really sympathise with the notion that life would be easier if I were mute. So much of friendly relationships (particularly less in-depth ones that you might form with work colleagues) is based on...

No one laughs at my jokes. It's just several awkward minutes of me struggling with a punch line for a malformed and long since forgotten set up....

I have a weird thing. Most times I can control my speech to like 95% fluency. But on the phone it drops to like 60%. One of the words I cannot say when in control of my speech at 95% fluency, is "I st...

I think you should also do some other topics. And maybe use the jokes about your stutter as an introduction?...

Cmon. I read one comment saying how stuttering is something you are “born with”. That’s a myth. I haven’t stuttered all my life. There were times when I didn’t stutter. My stutter came to be cause of ...

I'm okay with people finishing words for me as long as it's completely obvious what I'm trying to say; it's when people just start repeatedly guessing that pisses me off. If you think you know what I'...
