Well, it depends on how bad it is and how well you take it. For me it was quite bad, basically stuttering was causing stress, strong anxiety and embarassment in almost every speaking situation I got. ...

Hey dude! I'm about to start my sophomore year of college and I'm still dealing with my stutter after about 11 years of speech therapy (although I have definitely gotten better). I am a CS major and I...

I've been on live TV two times,and I stuttered once or twics saying my name and some other information - it was stressfull,you guessed it,but nothing more than talking to any other unknown person in y...

will be a junior in college (kind of, dont have the credits to be a junior), but am studying computer science, hoping to get into game development ...

Law school works a bit different here. See a few posts below for an explaination. It was quite challenging for me to go through law school. I discussed my stuttering with the school board before app...

Having a job is definitely a great thing and takes off a lot of pressure. I assume you're not from America but did you pass the equivalent of the Bar exam in your country? Like /u/gutter_baller, im a...

Would love to hear how law school was for you sometime. Pretty cool you got through it and graduated with what you call a 'severe stutter'. My sister showed me around her trial classroom once when I...

I went through the same thing when I started college. Honestly stuttering sucks but its who we are, something that I do when I start to stumble a lot is I start talking in gibberish for a few seconds ...

Hey man, I read the first few posts; I like it! As a college as PWS, I get your experience totally. It's a scary time, and being unable, or less able to physically speak can make it downright terrifyi...

I'm in college right now, and the strategy I've been using is pretty similar to the ones recommended by everyone else. I'd say to definitely speak to your teacher face-to-face, a quick minute-long int...

I kinda felt the same way you did. I think talking to your teacher will help put you in a little more ease. But ultimately in my experience, it's not going to help a ton because it's not as big of a p...

You should definitely talk to your professor about it, and you should say you don't want special treatment. You should try to get a copy of the syllabus before hand and see what, if any, oral reports ...

I just finished grad school and found that letting people know up front worked very well for me. Any time I had to introduce myself or give a presentation I advertised it. By addressing it openly you ...

I kind of had the same feeling. A lot of my classes, my professor had us stand up and introduce ourselves to the class (name, major, current job, etc). This was the worst for me, especially if I was o...

I started college after stuttering all through elementary, middle school, and high school. I was incredibly internalized at that point so I was dreading my speech class the entire summer beforehand. ...

Regarding your three factors, I felt the exact same way when I was your age -- I'm 35 now. What I will say is that I regret not talking in the foreign language more. I'm a native English speaker who l...

I had a speech class in college. I was really nervous about it. But honestly, I only had to speak infront of the class for my 5 speeches during the year. The first one your really nervous, and it actu...

I took speech in college a few years ago. It really depends on your professor and you. I talked to mine the first day to let him know I stutter. They are usually understanding and will offer alternat...

I had to take it as a pre-requisite. Definitely wouldn't have taken it on my own free will. I approached it with a positive attitude though. As some people have mentioned, it's much easier to inform t...

Well i had to take a comm class in college and it was one of the most fun classes I had. I am a fairly severe stutterer so since introductions people knew I stuttered. But it was a fun class and i was...
