I'm in my late 20's and even though I'm positive I do have a temper, but it's reserved for insensitive people. The thing I noticed growing up is a lot of life is all about how you let things affect yo...

Exactly! But it is hard to achieve. I remember the younger I was the less I had these issues because I didn’t give a sh*t. In your place I wouldn’t stress so much, 99% fluent is good enough. Nobody ca...

I'm not sure acceptance is something I 'achieved'. It's more something I do when things are less than ideal. How I got to the point of being able to do that in regards to stuttering was a bunch of thi...

Started realizing it lately. I blame my stutter for 'holding me back' in life, but when I stop to think about it I'm not sure I'd change things if I didn't stutter. So I need to work more on myself wi...

Hear you. Also, don’t think it’s anger that activates your flow and fluency. https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/s/NsBvvQq5Zw...

What other people say is their choice and speaks more about them then you. What you do with what they say is up to you. Sometimes things hurt, sometimes something in us wants it to hurt. Maybe the pai...

I believe acceptance comes with confidence of yourself. You're going to stutter, so make people focus on other (POSITIVE) aspects of yourself. Work out, go to college, join the military, etc etc. If y...
