Negative reaction- I think to myself “oh this is foreign to them it’s no biggie” but if they say something again while they know I stutter than there is an issue...

I broke up with my ex-boyfriend for mocking my stutter. Didn't even bother to tell him to stop it because I shouldn't ever have to do that. People who makes fun of my stutter is not welcome in my life...

I can see what you mean. I’ve had some people make fun of me that I thought understood so I was hurt by that. I could explain that it’s something I don’t like joking about which kinda helps make thing...

I cant say thank you at all, I always say "thanks" though ive been remarked by people how just saying thanks by itself is rude and I honestly have no clue if it is...

this is a kind post. thank you \>> you shared: *I would like to protect them from embarrassment, but I also don't want to meddle and end up creating embarrassment for them.* \*pws not to be...

Great question. I lacked the courage to disclose until about age 25. The opposite of disclosing is trying to keep it a secret. Secrecy does not provide harmony within the pws. Like Jekyl and Hyd...

I agree with a lot of the other advice here. I’ll keep it short: Whatever you do, don’t think of yourself as trying to “help them”. They live with their stutter every minute of every day and your atte...

Thank you for replying, and yeah I’ve witnessed people picking at my boyfriends stutter but I didn’t know wether to intervene or what, afterwards I did drop that person a message and called them out. ...

I used to hate it. Sometimes it really annoys me, but I get more annoyed at the people who treat me like dogshit when I stutter. Now I’m definitely more accepting of it and 100% more likely to call ou...

so there are 3 things really here. 1. the first is how you personally should react when the person stutters. I would say, if its mild- moderate- as in its noticeable but does not lead to a break down...

Stutter Badly but Saved a Person's Life Long story short: One of the people I'm flatting with was unresponsive on the kitchen floor. Initiative took over and I dialed an amublance and had to explain i...

Hahaha! Totally know how you feel man. Just keep letting them know. If they feel offended then screw their feelings cause you were trespassed first. You need to not be interrupted like any other human...

Depends who it is. My family knows better. If it's a stranger I'll try to calmly explain to them to never do that to a stutterer. If I haven't consistently taken my meds recently, watch out. I'll prob...

I hate that line of reasoning. "He's young, he doesn't completely know what he's doing!" Okay, so teach him. Correct his behavior before it becomes a pattern. Don't just let a problem continue. At...
