You know, that might be a good opportunity to briefly mention that stutter thing, if you want. Or maybe just mention it to the teacher(s). Have you ever approached it like that before?...

That's a very bad advice. You can do anything you want to do. Stuttering is just the way you talk, and i feel like if you own it and wear it on your sleeve it might even open new opportunities...

I concur the above comment. Another stutter MD here. Follow your dreams and screw anyone who says you can’t do something because of your stutter...

My advisor told me the same thing when I was young but I knew for myself I wanted to do medicine. Don’t let someone incapable of achieving it on their own stop you from achieving what you want in life...

Im a PhD student and I have to present research and literature all the time and I have a moderate stutter. Dont let anyone tell you that your speech wont allow you to do things. If you want to be an R...

All my advisors suck.. My college advisor was my professor. He would constantly put me down because i didn't have a 3.0 GPA. He would tell me things like, " you wont make it to graduate school, your ...

I studied acting for 8 years with my stutter and now i am studying to become a psychiatrist. Dont listen to that person. If this is what you want to do as a job than go for it and dont let anybody tel...

None. This may sound crazy or insensitive, but stuttering is a weird thing. Most people don't do it, so it looks crazy when we do. I don't blame people for wondering wtf is wrong and cutting the tens...

That person can pack sand. I wanted to get into the Navy and into submarines. My stutter was picked up on the screenings and I had to go through extra scrutiny, but I made it. I actually had a such ...

Honestly, fuck that counselor. I was worried I couldn’t be a lawyer with my stutter and I’m about to be a litigator. The truth is most every job requires communication, and you shouldn’t have to isola...

I work in a job that requires a lot of communication. My coworker here also stutters worse than i do. Report that adviser....

Honestly I don’t understand how your advisor can be so unprofessional. Are they new at this? I’ve been in higher ed for 15 years and I feel like I have seen the FULL RANGE of the human tapestry. So ma...

Nope nope nope they are wrong. I am a college advisor and I recently advised a student with a very severe stutter (along with a variety of spectrum disorder related disabilities). He just graduated wi...

Fuck. No. Just no! Who controls your path? Some college advisor? No! You do. You decide what to do with your life. Not someone else. If you want to become an RN, no one gets to tell you that you can...

How ignorant. Your stutter will not impact how well you are able to provide care as an RN....

Please ignore that advice your advisor gave you. You should strive for whatever you want in life and never let your stutter influence or dictate your career path. I'm sure it was very defeating to hea...

Na, ignore that person. I'm an MD and I communicate day in and day out. That person needs to find a different job, themselves, because they don't know what they're talking about....

Yeah, I think it would have definitely helped if the speech therapist explained why were using the rudimentary materials. Although when I was younger I had a lot of frustration and anger built up as a...

I’m going to get a tag or badge that says **Hi, my name is XXX, and I stutter. Please be patient”**....
