I don't think there is a certain way to cure it. You should work towards having a better control over stuttering. The most important part is not worrying about it. Say fuck you to those who make fun o...

Yeah I got you. I’m just making sure you do everything you can to make it easier you know? The less you have to worry about the less anxious you’ll be. I was telling my teachers, “ look I’m getting ...

The best thing I did in classes was tell my teachers before the very 1st class that I have a speech problem. They understood and wouldn’t just randomly call me to talk or read out loud. And just tel...

It's not embarassing. It's just a thing. Other things happen to other people too. There's no secret involved here. A stutter is just a stutter... and if your life is improved by informing the people a...

So do they know what stutter is? Have you ever talked to them about that?...

Do you think getting out ahead of it would be helpful? When you start to stutter or if people look at you confused when you're introducing yourself, you can say "yeah i have a stutter". If they laugh ...

In general, it seems like I don’t get talked to “normally”. My co workers will give me less responsibilities, talk to me slowly and less conversationally, when I’m talking to them they’ll constantly n...

Question: Have you had some sort of class introduction? What I have in mind is informing those around you that you stutter. Less pressure on you, I reckon....

>no one likes to hear a person repeat words over and over and make weird face movements while trying to get words out The only person you have to worry about is _you_. This is your life. Fuck ever...

It's up to how you feel about it as to whether it's OK or not. I'd just tell him you know he's not trying to be offensive but you don't like it and I'm sure he'll stop. ...

You need to advocate for yourself. Part of that is telling people when you're not ok with a behavior, stuttering related or otherwise. Sounds like he wants to be friendly with you anyway. I would s...

I hate this too. It's a common thing to hear "don't finish their sentences" on educational materials about how to make people who stutter feel welcome, so I wish more people were educated about our di...

Yes, I don’t like people finishing my sentences either. I just started a new job - great team, great job (kind of my dream job) but I’m going to have to let them know not to do it. I know most of th...

I always hated this advice. If I were a woman, an African-American, a homosexual or an arm amputee, I wouldn't disclose it (and I wouldn't want to be hired (or not hired) because of this), so why woul...

Yup. It’s the fucking worst. If I’m out with a friend or my wife I always pray they’ll just introduce me and spare us all the awkwardness....

Yes, I’m a Regional Director making $130k a year. I sit in weekly round table meetings (that always do the dreaded name introductions) and have to present frequently. I would say my stutter is mild to...

Clinical Research Associate (CRA) here. I own my own small business (really small, like me and my wife small). We do contract work w Sm biotechs to lg multinational companies to help them manage their...

So they know you have a stutter and still punish you or they just think you suck at speaking the language? In USA you can probably fight that..I'm not sure though I don't think it is officially labele...

Going in with the mindset of not stuttering will only add more pressure and if that doesn't make you stutter more, it will leave you feeling worse about yourself if you do. The best advice I can off...

I think it's good to call people out for insensitive jokes like that, especially if you can do it as a light hearted joke. ...
