Interviews are not nightmares and you gotta bear it in mind. Just say what you want to say and don't cork yourself up bc you stutter. Actually you can try self-closure which advices you to claim stut...

You're already doing well just thinking about how they will be taking the situation. Just stay patient and keep neutral body language. I'm sure prefacing the interview with a "you mentioned your stutt...

Absolutely you should be able to get a job!! Believe it or not I have managed to land a job in my field of psychology, talking to people all day every day and even delivering training, and while my st...

I hated the register as well. Consider discussing it with your teacher(s), perhaps you could say another, easier, phrase? Or just wave, or your teacher just visually confirm and not call you out, or...

I agree with this, just letting them know your happy to accommodate can take a lot of the tension out of the situation. letting them know in advance is very helpful so they don't overstress themselves...

Just let them know you're aware and it's not an issue. Say "hey, we've seen you have a stutter, you've got plenty of time so just relax and don't feel rushed". That's all you can really do....

Speak your mind. But keep in mind that it sounds like they are trying to be nice, in their own weird way. e.g. "That's nice of you to say, but, NO, you really don't wish you had a stutter. My stutter...

My mom used to correct my but sometimes when my stutter was really bad she would yell at me and I would make me feel like trash but one thing that helped me is being told to calm down and breath...

I've got to try that response to people and see what happens will really make them think twice about doing it again 😒😒...

Hate that shit, I generally don't get too bothered about my stutter nowadays but I use that question as an excuse to make them feel bad. "Actually, I have a stutter." Kinda petty, but super funny....

I know, but what I am saying is... a very big part of overcoming the worst part of stuttering (the anxiety) is accepting that its part of who you are. And its other peoples job, to respond in an under...

No! Do never correct your child otherwise he will strengthen his negative feelings from stuttering and he will remember he has random impediments which can for a lifetime do harms to his speaking abil...

It sucks. It can be so hard. Especially at your age. Do you have *anyone* in your life that you can talk to? Someone that doesn't mock or hurt you? If so, put yourself out there. Trust that person. L...

First off you have to eradicate your fears of stutter, like this way: 'Just open your fking mouth and say whatever you want. If he or she can't tolerate your way of speaking, just leave him or her al...

In my shoes if your stutter is really severe so that you can't hide it, just tell your conversation partners you have stutter and you can also judge if they are good ones or ones not worthwhile of kee...

I know how hard it can be, but as others have said people won't care and won't think less of you. I know that is hard to internalize. So, I'll give you some practical advice :I had years of therapy w...

If you don't already plan on doing this, disclosing your stutter at the beginning of the presentation could help a lot. I do it a lot with presentations, interviews, meeting new people, etc. It really...

I've to do presentations in front of 30-40 people regularly (few times a month), and occasionally in front of 100s of people every once in a while. The best thing to do is to make it known that you st...
