I've been a stutter since I can remember and I am currently a 16 year old junior in highschool, it is really getting to me. It's not fair. It's just not fucking fair. Why am i not allowed to speak lik...

Just not talking wont get you anywhere. I will also have my 20th birthday this april and yes these escape situations are really annoying. I know I could do better, but I dont because of my stutter, f...

I know how you feel. In my school years I thought of ending it all, but what would that help? There are things worth living for. For me, it is marrying my fiance one day, having children, having grand...

I hate calls, forced introductions, and roll calls. Luckily they don't bother with constant roll in college or work. Take it as a reason to be punctual--the tardy people will always be asked their nam...

I just turned 25 and still haven't had a job. I'm very behind in college because I dropped a lot of classes due to my inability to cope with presentations, and now I'm shying away from the first co-op...

My son is 8 with a stutter and I also worked as a psychotherapist with kids so I've been doing my best to help him through everything. One major thing with him is that he is sort of "afraid" of people...

Thank you for taking the time to write that. I actually have joined a group that meets weekly to practice for about a month now. Its been good, it helped me do a presentation at school. I'm actuall...

I'm a first year med student with a stutter and I worry a lot about ending up in a situation where I get passed over for a residency spot because of it. You perfectly described how I feel when my stut...

I know what you mean. Speech therapy helped me a lot and I was able to overcome it enough to go through college and land a job. ...

I've been feeling exactly same. I just can't stand hearing someone stutter. It's weird considering I have same problem but I just want them to shut up. Though, this is only with people who are talking...

I sometimes wish I can just end myself to end this nonsense. At least I won't be going through embarrassment and emotional torture on a daily basis. edit: Just viewed one of my courses' learning pla...

I've actually had rock bottom stages like this. Points where I've embarrassed myself where I couldn't even say my name. I feared going to every single class except Maths because I know there was no co...

Happy Holidays, everyone! My tough thing is making toasts on new years but luckily im usually a little sauced up so its not that bad lol...

>I've been stuttering since I was born but since like 6-7 years my stuttering changed into some kind of locks..i mean sometimes its really hard to say a word also i can't say sentence longer than f...

I try to tell my close friends. I don't pass it off as a legitimate stutter unless they're pretty educated or else it just ends up in an endless conversation about how they can try help me, "slow down...

Just be upfront about it. Say that you stutter. You're still in high school. College is easier, socializing-wise....

I know it's not a job per se but I am currently a student doing languages at university, with a focus on translating and interpreting.. obviously the interpreting involves a lot of speaking and French...

I've had speech therapy since I was 4, up until I graduated H.S. In all fairness, I still stutter. It was never that bad, but it's not gone. I always saw it as something I had to do. I could never g...

When I was young and still in primary school (think 1st/2nd grade) I had some speech therapy to get rid of the worst of it. However, I didn't really like it and found it counter intuitive. To me sitti...
