This is EXACTLY how I am, my biggest fear is definitely reading out loud because people will think my stutter is a fluke, so they might laugh or something. Then when I go out somewhere in public and m...

A small victory

A small victory I've had a moderate to severe stutter (depending on the day) since I was 7 years old. Recently the lady who trained me at my current job left, leaving me to take over some of her respo...

dude, the same problem has haunted me all my life. both my first and lastname begin with 'H'. answering the phone is the worst. it's ok now, but i dreaded it when i was younger....

I tend to have a really tough time with 'H' sounds, which is a pain in the ass because my name begins with an 'H'. This means that every time I have to introduce myself, it takes me a second or so to ...

My stutter is weird. Some times I stutter, some times I make really long and prolonged sounds whilst trying to get the word out (it sounds horrible!). But usual words I dread to say often start with B...

Does anybody have a stutter that just affects certain sounds or word combinations?

Does anybody have a stutter that just affects certain sounds or word combinations? Hi there, long time redditor, but I just stumbled upon the stutter subreddit. I was so happy to find a place that act...

Whenever I have to introduce myself to someone, I am generally mortified with the entire situation. Saying my name always, without fail, brings out the worst stutter in me. There were a couple times I...

thank you so much for your input. Regimented information, do you mean something with a common script? What type of phone call is most stressful for you?...

I'm a nursing student- I would say where I have to ask for something (I hate to inconvenience people) or when I know I have to give regimented information (the phone if I must explain a situation). ...

Yeah, nothing like being hung up on just as you're about to get the word out. I usually avoid the phone like the plague. However, last week my grandma was in the hospital five hours away from me so I ...

Actually, I forgot to mention the phone in my comment, but I think it's probably the worst for me as well, except possibly reading aloud (although, interestingly enough, I think reading aloud over the...

The situation that causes the most anxiety for me is using the phone. I completely dread having to make doctor appointments, hair appointments, even calling friends. When I worked at a pizza place in ...

First of all, this isn't offensive at all. I don't even have a follow-up to that because I can't see what part of this could possibly offend anyone. So, to get started, obviously, the more people pay...

Same here. I used to tell nobody that I stutter. But some people know, now. But they said, they never realised until I told them. That made me proud, because I have to restructure almost every sentenc...

I am 22 and i have the same situation as yours. I have hooked up with a girl recently, and we talk on phone. i have not told her that i stutter. 2 days back, we had a 5 hour marathon phone session , ...

I used to get stuck on the "What's your name?" question all the time. The thing that helped me was when I got a job at a supermarket as a cashier. We had phones that we could use when we had to call a...

I get blocks. Jaw and tongue freezes and I just can't make a sound. Happens a lot with "g's" which makes speaking German pretty tough. I have gotten pretty good at having a "6th sense" knowing which w...

All 3. Usually made worse when I'm put on the spot, even with simple questions like "What's your name?" Talking in person isn't as bad as talking on the phone is for me, probably because I tend to mov...

Nope, even just thinking about it, I can feel a tendency to get blocked on it. Perhaps because I say "I have a stutter" so often that my brain doesn't really need to think about it anymore. It's lik...
