Snowboarding the other day, for insight I am 39, two guys come screaming down the hill and get in a fight in front of me. I break it up, accidentally popping the one kid in the lip. I stuttered afte...

When I was younger and my stutter was worse, I ended up shutting up as people would just talk over me and not wait for me to say what I had to say, these days although I do stutter a fair amount still...

I don't mind if someone finishes my sentence as long as i know who they are like friends, family work colleagues etc, if they're wrong I can tell them. I get stuck every now and then and sometimes ha...

Tell them right when you walk in that you suffer from a speech disorder. I've noticed people judge you less when you just break the ice about it....

I think most people are hitting the nail on the head: don't ask us, ask your friend. It's important for stutterers to work through a block, and not find a different word or let someone finish their s...

If he says he prefers "help" don't do it a lot bc it won't really help him share his ideas (that you value) and from personal experience, a lot of people don't guess my word correctly. Not a stupid q...

Personally, I hate it, regardless of who does it. Most of the time when people finish my sentences, they don’t say what I was actually wanting to say, which frustrates me and makes me feel like I’m be...

I would just ask him directly how he feels about that. It’s something that varies from person to person. Some people might appreciate the help if it’s genuine, others might find it condescending even ...

personally I absolutely hate it when someone finishes my sentences it makes me feel like my input doesn't matter that I'm just an inconvenience and makes me more aware of my stutter which gives me an...

Haven't you glanced over the title? I am *Expressing MY thoughts and opinions on stuttering.* What part of it is not satisfying and making you argue unnecessarily? For ME, stuttering is curable. It wo...

I am very well aware of the rules, and I have nowhere mentioned the cure for stuttering. If I have, would you mind pointing it out for me?...

You did the right thing OP. If anything, I would have demanded to see the manager and make them repeat exactly what they said. I’m a very kind person in general, but I absolutely will not stand someon...

I run my own business and had a similar experience with a customer a few weeks back. I am having a relatively smooth day until on the way out she asked "I don't think I got your name." <sigh> ...

I've had those moments, I tell people I may stutter when I talk. I don't stutter when I punch. Lol...

Good for you man! Stand up for yourself! There have been so many instances that I look back on where I wish I did what you did....

Good story, thanks for sharing! In situations like this I would try to make her aware without causing myself the stress and excitement. Because I am no longer a young guy and need to watch my heart :...

I’m a teacher and my principal accused me of “ad libbing” when I stutter and try to break my block. When she first made that comment, I felt so defeated, and wanted to tell her that I was not “ad libb...

Don’t be worried!! I’ve had a hard time lately bc of the masks and people can’t always tell that you’re stuttering. If it’s that bad they flight attendants and TSA workers won’t mind if you carry a ca...
