I was able to use it to my advantage. Whenever I would trip up I would explain my stutter and most of the time they would be very understanding. They would take the time to listen to what I had to say...

Yes, this does happen and it’s really dumb. I’ve literally been told it’s why and other times I haven’t been flat out told but it’s pretty obvious that is why. I’m glad they show me who they are up fr...

Me. I have a great husband, I’m a serial C level employee ( first became a CFO at 28). I have a great group of friends. I even recently gave a closing keynote in front of 350 people about overcoming a...

My take is that if your opposites act rude towards you bc you stutter then just let him go and that is not your problem at all. If you get mad at them you are just making urself angry with others' fau...

Exactly what u/ColterR123 said, it works for me! It's disarming, and makes you real / relateable. Everyone has someothing they're super scared others will notice - our thing is just more noticeable. T...

Be moderate in how you do this, but like what the other commenter said, lessen the importance of other people when talking to them. Don't be a dick because you might be get TOO comfortable lol, but j...

What I've found is most mature people don't care whether we stutter or not. I recently had a interview for an internship (couldn't take it due to conflict of hours) but it went really well, which was...

This is the answer. Wait patiently and keep good eye contact. Behave EXACTLY as you would if he were not stuttering. This will be challenging at first, but will get easier!...

You need and deserve a much more understanding and patient employer who won't turn your stutter into a big deal. I wouldn't go back! You can still be confident regardless of stuttering. There's no nee...
