Preach on brother! I agree that you just have to stop caring about your speech and what others' think to some extent, just be careful it doesn't turn you into someone you're not. I would hate to see...

Not like this always works for me, this is an unorthodox method to stay relaxed and I probably require some professional help for thinking this, but meh. I remember William Wallace's quote in Bravehe...

For all of those who stutter..

For all of those who stutter.. do you ever feel as if you know that you can stop stuttering? This probably won't apply to those who stutter because of a neurological problem, but I believe that most o...

There was one day where I just woke up and said "I refuse". Simply put: I refuse to let this limit my potential. I refuse to let this stop me from making friends, getting jobs, excelling at things I'm...

@PrinceofTruth No point in treating a fellow stutterer like that. He's right in a sense. We have a **choice**. Yes stuttering can have sucky effects. But we can choose to either remain down in the dum...

That's really immature. It shows that you are above them however, so try and don't give a fuck about what other people think! Once you stop caring (or at least care less) you will gain confidence and ...

Another step to coming to terms with my stutter.

Another step to coming to terms with my stutter. So I've had a stutter since I was about 11 or 12. I'm currently 20, so it's been a while. Anyway over the past year I've come to grips more and more ...

That's the same strategy that I use – "fuck it, I'm talking now". It makes me somewhat narcissistic (to people who doesn't know me) and sometimes loud/too animate, but it helps. But I still can't get...
