I saw this in a couple of posts already and I genuinely wonder why fellow stutterers feel this way. Not being able to express and not having are totally different things. In my case I would argue ...

I still think its pointless anyway since confidence is often mistaken for proper fluency, you could make your point and people will still say or think ‘oh he can’t get his words out he doesn’t know wh...

People also describe be as very approachable. Even have asked me to speak with people with, and I quote, my “aura of care”....

Yeah since we are essentially relying on peoples character and hoping they are decent enough to acknowledge you regardless of disabilities, I think me and you built a very strong trait in the sense of...

What type of judgement is that? I’ve also developed a very good judgement on first impressions. But I attribute it more on a turbulent romantic periods which led me to value actions more than words...

I have to agree with this, i think the avoiding arguments is a big plus, people who speak normally will argue just for the sake of arguing. People with a stutter don’t have the energy to try argue bac...

- Quick Wit - I speak less than average so when I do it’s usually a good addition. Probably a good sense of humour since it’s also a way for people to like me. - Avoidance of arguments (especially ...

Invisible or visible disability? Is it even a disability at all?

Invisible or visible disability? Is it even a disability at all? Was having a conversation with my mum about this. I was saying that stuttering can be an invisible disability because the person might ...

Most importantly don’t worry too much about it. I you pay attention to other people you would also notice that they often repeat a word or just say “ughhh” while they are thinking the next word. For ...

I found that I don't really stutter when I'm not thinking about stuttering at all (which is kinda rare)...

You'll find that it's the people who make you stutter because you're not fully comfortable around them. I don't really stutter around my close friends and family anymore, might get a knee perk here an...

Hah, minimal is possible, but to be honest it wouldn’t matter. You’ll look the same amount of “weird” if it’s minimal or a bit more. No way to hide it, so no point in trying. Be confident with yoursel...

You are gonna stutter, focus on answering the questions. No use avoiding the rain when you are already completely wet. Ppl will feel sympathetic, it's much like how you feel when a person is limpi...

I agree it's matter of mindset. If you keep thinking about it you are just overthinking all the ways it could go wrong. For me what seems to work is that I just don't care about 99% of the people who ...

Last month I presented online in front of 200+ people. I was asked to cover for my manager in an all-hands meeting in front of the entire company. I had a choice. I could have easily said that I don...

How do you get over them thinking you have something to hide due to being "so nervous"*? *People tell me "Oh yeah, I stutter when I'm really nervous too." No no, this is just my voice....

I don’t want laws in place. I don’t want to have a legal disability. It would hamper my life/job. I prefer to go through life pretending I don’t stutter- I haven’t had any real issues come up by doing...
