The people who made fun of my stutter or judged me based on it I just took them out of my life, look you are going to meet lots of twats in your life, they will judge you because of your stutter and t...

I just don't speak to them again after that. I thought about how much I wanted to wring their neck. That was years ago, I don't have difficulty speaking or saying my name anymore....

My advice would be to not make a big thing of it, the more you think about it when you are in the conversation the more attention you are paying to it, and will probably end up stammering more. Don't ...

Ha, yes. Some of my buddies laughed at it today (they didnt mean any harm, they didnt even know how it hurt until I got up and walked out), and when I returned it was business as usual. No issues at a...

When I was first learning Spanish, I didn't stutter much at all. I think that's because I was really focusing more on learning properly and getting things right. As I got the hang of it, of course, I ...

I mentioned it to an employer at costco, but I was doing so well she hardly noticed. I think at that point that's where you mention it, if you can control it. The employer will be impressed....

Dont tell them you have a stutter. Employers tend to judge based on a stutter. Something about not being able to communicate. Just remember to talk slow, do some practice on words you know you will st...

You might find this is more common than you think. If I prepare a particular sentence to try to avoid stuttering on it, I'll know the word(s) I'll struggle with. The weird thing is, if I feel more i...

I can say my name fluently but only if I say it quickly in a way that's hard to understand. So I get asked to repeat it and I end up stuttering anyway. Catch-22...

I think that sometimes, but in reality struggling to get out my name is no fun for me, or the person I'm talking to. It's so tempting to chose an easier name to say. But then again, i realize it's...

I gave myself a new name, it's shorter and I never stutter on it. Anyone else use a different name? ...

One liners for removing the stutter-taboo. Often when i meet new people someon plops out something like "You cold or something?" And i mention i always stutter. 90% I can feel the other person think "...

yes.... I went to speach classes that the therapist didn't think i actually stuttered because when we talked about it (what i did the whole time there), it didn't happen. I find, when i stutter and...

No, it's not a cure. It never said it was. I think you've completely misunderstood this course. This is by no means a quick fix. It'll take years of hard work to really get it all down. However, you'...

I have it all the time. I have to answer phones for my weekend job. I have to repeat what I am going to say before answering and take a few breathes before committing to it....

I learn something from a classmate that stuttered. He beat his chest twice and took a deep breath. I though it looked stupid so i made kind my own version of it: I stop the word, mumle loudly "god dam...
