I am not sure which jurisdiction you are in, but you should consider filing a complaint. States (if you are in the US) have boards that oversee judicial conduct. This would probably just be a slap on ...
"No, I didn't. I actually have a stutter and my own name is sometimes hard for me. But thanks for thinking it's funny and pointing it out to everyone." Usually they get ashamed of themselves after I s...
You need to have the sit down talk with her. People that don’t stutter, don’t understand. How can they? Tell her how she can help you. Find ways of helping yourself if you want to gain fluency. I can ...
I agree, guys usually tend to open up more. When I made this post, I was just focusing on my own experience, which was a mistake because a few people have set me straight. They don't want or need my h...
For my friends that I know arent doing it in a malicious manner I'm appreciative because they're just trying to help and I'm fine with that. There is a point tho where you have to say something but yo...
Hii! I've had a similar outbreak recently. I've noticed during my online presentations that I stutter so much that my teachers think I'm having issues with my connection (yikes) and just take over for...
Hey, u/AnxiousAbrocoma5222! Stuttering has no ‘cure’, but there are a ton of methods and speech therapy techniques to help suppress stuttering at its core. With that said, the other commenter is hitti...
I really need to set and enforce better boundaries. The problem is, I can’t bring it up when it’s just happened because I’m too worked up. This leads to them being able to deny it when i bring it up a...
I don't know of this phenomena but you should do what I did, I just straight up told my friends (the ones who would make fun of me) that I don't like my speech or myself in general to be made fun of a...

When I banter with my friends, they know my stutter is off limits. I would probably set that boundary...
Good luck. Life long stutter, 40 years and counting. I worked in law enforcement and now as a Children’s Social Worker and I always struggle but these are fields I have always excelled in such as help...
I have gone from a junior developer to senior to lead and managing a team of developers. Don’t worry about the interviews. Everyone is nervous and struggles. When I am being interviewed I advertise go...
Therapy helped. Mostly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I still get pretty anxious from my stutter at times, but no where near as bad as I was a few years ago. But yeah, my recommendation is therap...
This is the answer. Telling them up front will not only put you at ease, it will convey confidence that you are in top of the situation (even if you don’t think you are)......
This is what I hate about stuttering. What it does to one's development of confidence and self worth. This is a McDonalds job. A McJob, if you will. They are going to be glad to have you. Set your ...
I highly suggest you disclose your stutter at the top of the interview. Your potential employer won’t be confused as to why you speak in that way, they can better integrate you into their workflow wit...
You could carry around little cards saying something like “I’m a person with a stutter (speech disability). I’m having a hard time speaking today, thank you for being patient”...
You can if you want, or you can specify if there's an option for stating in the box what it appears to be. Usually I tick 'no' then disclose it to the interviewer in person so I come across as very co...
Definitely let them know. At the end of the day, it's no crime to stutter and they have no right to ever belittle or stigmatise you for it so what's the worst that can happen? If anything, my speech t...
