I've only ever been teased or mocked about my stutter two times. I'm only 23 so maybe I've got plenty coming my way, but yeah first time was in highschool. The second and third were both at places of ...

I look them in the eye and say, "I actually have a stutter, can't help it," and I go on with what I'm saying. They'll shut the hell up about it, 9/10 times....

Do they know that you stutter as a condition? Perhaps a chat individually or redirecting a question at them such as "what is the point in mocking me for a speech impediment that is difficult to contr...

Your coworkers may not understand what stuttering is and maybe you could try to educate them on stuttering if that happens again, or just try to avoid those jerks. ...

I always tell people beforehand, mention that I'm so used to it that it's not a big deal to me. Then I'll make a joke like "just wanna let you all know what's going on so you don't think I'm having a ...

I recommend going out of your way to talk with them just to show that you don't mind talking directly, in case that is why they are messaging you....

I don't have an answer, and I'm not sure if this comment will be welcome here but I just wanted to point out that you can't ever know the struggles of others. The people you meet may be struggling wit...

I was called a broken record when I was growing because of how bad my stutter was. My best friend always had to be by my side, she was the only one that could understand me. I went to speech therapy ...

Your stutter didn't ruin your relationship--you did, by not being honest and open or willing to really try. Do *not* blame your stutter for that. That is all you. The sooner you accept that accountabi...
