I agree completely also in college and had to take a break due to me stuttering in front of the whole class for my final presentation. Just know you’re not alone and many people deal with these same s...

I see, you mentioned it's happening outside of work too. The eyes flickering and body spasms sounds like it's affecting you quite a bit. I unfortunately can't think of what might be causing it. Did yo...

Yeah I totally get the extreme pounding heart beats, if I rehearse or not it normally ends up the same embarrassment, I think its worse as well by who's serving you, some people just seem to put y...

I'm afraid it's part of living with a stutter, I find the anxiety way more worse though, just going to the shop knowing I'll have to ask for a specific item is a nightmare, I play it out in my head...

It would probably be best to involve him in group activities. Maybe a guitar jam session with other kids at school or at the music-school. He would definitely make some friends there without the press...

I am sorry to hear that. Good you talked/reported to someone in the office. That kind of behaviour is not alright especially in school....

They’re a lot less likely to judge you if they know you have a speech impediment rather than if they think you didn’t do your work...

I think its because of my fear of being judged. I already mentioned on our first day that I have some speech problem but I didn’t specify it, but my friend on the presentation knew about my stutter an...

Why does your teacher (and group mates) not know this ahead of time? It’s something you should tell them if you’re going to be giving presentations and being graded on your ability to present. It’s no...

That’s actually awesome though that your fear came to life. Now you know you can survive it and use the experience as strength going forward in life. Now you don’t have to feel a need to dwell on an i...

When I was younger it felt scary to tell them. As an adult, I kick myself for being scared to tell them. They're just a human who should have the decency to understand speech impediments are something...

When I was in school, I told all my teachers I have a speech impediment and doing presentations, reading out loud, etc, will be hard for me. I tell them its something I'm born with and can't change it...

reherse what youre going to say in your head. and when i was presenting i noticed how everyone was just on their phones, and no one was really paying attention..so dont sweat it...

I don't think it's bad advice, it's simply an option. I don't know how old OP is; but when I was younger, I had no choice but to do what the teachers told me to do. School gave me terrible anxiety. I...

Hey op, how did the presentation go? You seem like you might be a lot like me, not a bad stutter by any means but still nervous about public speaking. I have a presentation tomorrow as well so I was w...

I think this is terrible advice. This is how you end up completely inept at public speaking which is one of the most important skills you can have in a professional setting. Doors close for you. You...

1. **Has your stutter changed over the years? Did it get better/worse when you got to adulthood? When did it begin?** 2. In primary school I started mildly. In high school it became severe. In Univers...

I live in Canada but I'm sure it's quite similar. I have my finals coming up this winter, if I stutter more than expected and get penalized, then I'll definetly do something about it....

All the god damn time. Like in class, during round tables, just for that participation point, I would have a great point in mind, but I would just mumble over that shit...

Accounting student, but it's very hard to study, I try, but I'm always on the verge of being expelled due to poor academic performance. I am 100% a humanitarian and have never understood mathematics. ...
