I realize that they're trying to help, but it doesn't make it less condescending or patronizing. I dislike the immediate assumption that I'm incapable. I also dislike that I'm put in the position of h...

This is literally the only thing anyone with a stutter will ever ask of anyone. Half of the anxiety that I associate with my stutter is thinking about people filling in my words to begin with....

I used to smoke weed like three years i stopped year ago, at the beginning it was great it made me more relaxed i dont remember how my stutter was bad or good but i had a great experience, until the t...

For me it doesn’t really do much except make me a little more relaxed about it. Low dose helps but getting baked makes it a little worse because it becomes harder to put the thoughts into words which...

I don't smoke weed anymore but I smoked for a lot for about 6 years and I think being high makes you a little more anxious socially then when you are sober. It is a drug in my experience that should b...

All I can say is this: It’s clear that your biggest problem is NOT your stutter. Your biggest problem is your FEAR of stuttering. The only way you’re going to overcome your fear of stuttering is to st...

Anxiety about transitioning into adulthood Its just a vent , these are the feelings i ve been having for a long time Okay so my teenagers are almost over . Im 19 now and im terrified of being an adult...

I would survey your options and maybe try to find something that can help you build or get experience in an area you may want to have as a career. Or, find something with better than average pay and w...

How do you deal with having a stutter in this world?

How do you deal with having a stutter in this world? I just...i get overwhelmed sometimes. A lot of the times. I hate having to introduce myself to people, I hate how fucking rude people can be, I hat...

A few of my co-workers do the same thing to me. I wasn't annoyed by it much but it's dumb how people don't understand how hard it is. One of my mangers believes i stutter because I'm nervous.. Stupid...

>I overheard my manager saying to the district manager, "She's doing really well, we're working on her customer assistance, but she seems to be stuttering a lot, which is fine I guess. We will work...

If I can give you some advice, if you are a teenager now... this is the worst it will probably be. At least, that's what you should keep telling yourself. Dont be afraid to stutter. Don't be afraid to...

I get you. I got pulled over once years ago and the cop thought I was on something. I told him I stutter. I just got off work I was exhausted and just wanted to go home. He made me do a field test I p...

Ordering drinks at a noisy bar is the worst. Stand there for like 5 minutes with loads of people behind you, having to shout for the bartender to hear you, not able to get your words out because of th...

Dude just the tiniest bit of anxiety that butterfly feeling in my stomach causes me to stutter and usually it's a snowball effect. I was able to block out my stutter most my childhood by avoiding talk...

Thanks for your reply. Some people know but I rarely talk to anyone at my school as all my friends moved to a different school. My family knows too but I've never really thought about therapy. I think...

You're still young so I'm going to tell you something that you really need to hear. Do not be ashamed of your stutter. If you do that, it will only become worse and you'll soon resort to escapism wh...

Can't say, it's personal and pretty unique to me. But that's why I encourage everyone to go on their own journey - there's hope to beat this if you feel it's down to anxiety...

I think it’s also a bit of the pressure of feeling judged that you can’t even say your name. For me I definitely feel like the more I try not to stutter. The worse I do stutter. Then of course when I...

Yes! Whenever I let people know I have a stutter (like a professor) or if I am meeting someone and I know ahead of time. If I let them know, it relieves my anxieties and all the fear of how they might...
