Don't just announce it, no. And don't forget, you're not Seekere, the stutterer. You're Seekere... who happens to stutter. Don't let it define you. ...

I can totally relate to this and it makes total sense. I just need the courage to accept it and start owning up to it instead of hiding in fear. Thanks for the great reply....

My fear began going away once I became open about my stuttering. With most people if you just say "hey man I stutter sometimes, it seems awkward for me but I'm totally used to it" or something of that...

I re-read this a few times. I think it only depends on the occupation you are going for, some occupations require more level of conversation and communication than others. Your stutter shouldn't let...

That works too! My point is proabably we are avoiding inner side of ourselves this way may be we can be more positive....

A comment on some of the posts I see here offering help

A comment on some of the posts I see here offering help First off - this a fantastic subreddit. I can't believe it took me this long to think of searching for it! I've stuttered my entire life (I am...

How I've treated my stuttering.

How I've treated my stuttering. Hi folks, want to give you guys my story. My stuttering started in school, almost as early as I can remember, but got under my full control at around 20, i.e. I've bee...

It's a weird feeling eh? I actually don't even remember stuttering in grades 1-8, but when I ask my old friends if I stuttered they all said yes which is really strange. However I do remember one mome...

It's made me more empathetic, but also a better writer. "If I'm not gonna be able to express myself verbally as well as I want to, I had better be able to do it through the written word!"...

I understand where PrinceofTruth is coming from (as you might tell from my own post). I don't like to make assumptions, but here goes (anyone correct me if I'm totally off). It might help in putting P...

I enjoy talking about my stutter but I never ever bring it up. To me it's like an obese person talking about his/her obesity. It seems to put the other person in an awkward position. I welcome questio...

I need some advice and techniques.

I need some advice and techniques. Hello. My name is Aidan and I am 16 years old. I have had a stutter since I was young and it was bad when I was young and then didn't come up until I was about 12-13...

No, I'm Dutch. As I've implied, my stuttering is barely noticable in clinical situations. I think it is mostly because I'm more aware of my tone, word choice, etc., in those situations. Maybe somewha...

Anyone like to practice on skype?

Anyone like to practice on skype? I have a stutter ranging from moderate to severe, which has affected me throughout my life. This year my resolution is to accept it for what it is and try to be more ...

If you're genuinely interesting to her - connecting on more levels than just "wow, you're really breathtakingly pretty, and you seem really laid-back, we should hang out!" - then that's what makes you...

I've learned to stutter less through time. I took therapy as a child and in my early 20's and picked up different techniques to help me get through my disfluency. I still stutter but have more control...

I talked less than I could have in school, so I didn't develop the small-talk social skills, soooo I've avoided parties and meeting huge groups of new people alwaaaaays. Actually that's served more to...

very little actually. My last relationship lasted 1.5ish years, and she didn't even know I had a stutter, until I told her. what it does affect is meeting women. It takes a lot to say hey to a rando...

While I understand what you're saying and I agree with a lot of it, I'm sure many would disagree on what effect skin color has on abilities. Not because of an inherent direct connection with abilities...

No, I'm not saying it to be nice! :P It physically turns me on (don't make me describe the physical effects, please! ;)). And yes, I'm aware of the blocks and also secondary things that can come with ...
