I run a [YouTube channel](http://youtube.com/moneyonlywithjosh) and I stutter. Just make your video, stutter as much as you like, and edit it out. Or, just stutter and be yourself....

I stutter, yet I didn't care and went ahead and did my video: https://youtu.be/DswtQsS-JLc...

Speak loud, proud, and powerfully. I've always found that when I'm acting for a play or anything like that (even school presentations), I don't stutter. It seems like I stutter wayyyy more in casual c...

That's the hard part about my severe stutter. It feels like I can't show the real self to other people, because my stutter acts as a wall. My real self is a talkative, assertive and extraverted person...

I seem to have to clear this up a lot on here. But if you stutter more, and avoid less around a person, it's because you're more comfortable with said person. You can make people think you're fluent,...

I regonize it that stuttering gets worse if I talk to people who I'm more comfortable with. Strange but true. I think I'm relaxt about my stutter, it's okay to stutter then, I can be myself. For me, ...

That is definitely a different paradigm than I'm used to, I've always tried to hide it. It seems to be echoed throughout this post though, so it's obviously something worth looking into. Thanks! ...

That is really awesome! You chose to do it because its what you're passionate about. You accepted the fact that you stutter and you do what you love. Is it hard sometimes? Probably, but you'll look ba...

Good question. I've seen a lot of people comment on the fact that voluntarily stuttering more seems counter-intuitive. This is solely my own experience; I know nothing about how you stutter or you a...

Im still a very social and outgoing person but i do believe i would have been more succesfull in life if i didnt stutter. ...

Honestly if I would not stutter, I would first be a quite smartass and surely annoying to other people. People like me now because I dont say everything i think of. Stuttering is annoying as f***, but...

Awesome, I really like the last part you wrote; the frustration of avoidance being worse than the frustration of a hard moment of stuttering. I feel like I'm getting to this tipping point. My avoida...

Been there, done that! Through the years I became more open about it. But the last years are special stuttering years for me, haha. I delete the avoidance for 99% of the time. True, I stutter a whol...

What had the biggest positive impact on you opening up about your stuttering and eliminating avoidances? Any successful stories or defining moments that stood out to you?

Sometimes I rarely or never stuttered as I used to be very good at paraphrasing and finding synonyms. So I haven't learnt to be desensitized to it. It's just not an option. My society doesn't get it. ...

How much do you feel that your speech problems are connected to anxiety?

How much do you feel that your speech problems are connected to anxiety? I'm sure just about everybody with a speech problem has anxiety about it, but I'm wondering about anxiety as a cause or aggrava...

I'm social already, but I'm positive that I would be more outgoing if I didn't stutter....

Without a stutter, do you think you would be a social person?

Speaking in a different language has completely eliminated my stutter

Speaking in a different language has completely eliminated my stutter I've struggled with stuttering my entire life. Middle school was hell, and high school wasn't much better. I've been learning Ital...

>It's a self-fulfilling prophecy; I'm afraid the word won't come out, which makes me anxious, which makes it impossible to get the word out. Ha, this is so true. I mean, a block is going to happen...
