Wow, he is good. I want to learn how he manages his stuttering. I stutter but my words can't be understandable. I often opt to text people rather than call them because I stutter so bad. ...
Oh my God, I hate phone interviews so much! People ask me, "Are you nervous?" I tell them no, but then they're like, "Well, why are you stuttering?" or "Why can't you talk?" There's no way you can tel...
Thank you for the detailed response. Unfortunately, I'm not a stutterer at all; I only block. I haven't always blocked; I was completely fluent for my entire life and then unfortunately around 2 years...
Firstly, I don't think people *will* think you have a mental disability if you're blocking. The truth is, no matter how much we mind read and gleam, we don't know what people are thinking. A few bad e...
You could learn sign language to communicate with them. How you'll avoid the rest of the world, I dont know....
But what's the point of doing all of it? For instance, for stutterers, the end goal is that you are confident about it, learn that people are totally accepting of it, and you are able to stutter freel...
I know I have a stutter as I can feel when I am/about to. I'm not sure if it is the same for lisps because I don't have one. Or at least I don't think I do... ...
It's beautiful advice, but its real world practicality varies. When I'm in the middle of a block, I can slow down all I want, but I'm still there with my mouth gaping open making choking sounds....
I've noticed this as well. After the first half bowl or so, I think my fluency gets way better, but by the time the bowl is finished or after a second bowl, I tend to block a bit more. On top of that...
My stutter gets significantly worse after smoking. I get major blocks to the point where I just stop talking. This tends to extend into the following few days too. ...
Oh geez, too many to count... but here are some of the more worse ones: 1) In my senior capstone class, we worked with a customer to design and implement some software. The first part of the course i...
I was in high school and the class was reading Arsenic and Old Lace aloud. I was called on to read and I started blocking really bad. The teacher just kept saying, "Do you know where we are on the pag...
I was never asked if I forgot my name, but in high school the teachers always asked me to read aloud in class. I would start blocking and they'd say, "We're on the second paragraph." I'd be like, "I k...
My stutter is moderate and I am generally in control but a few years ago I got very sick after a trip to China and all of the doctors I saw told me it was asthma and put me on steroids way too often. ...
Last year I had a question about my laptop, so I called the company. It turned out the question I had was actually supposed to be directed toward the store where I'd bought it. The person on the phone...
Generally I don't have a problem with stuttering but it still comes out. My worst experience was a few months ago when I got a phone call about a job application. The lady asked what previous experie...
I was in a bus ride. The assistant (or whatever the person that brings coffee is called.) asked me where was I going. I started stuttering and opened my mouth uncontrollably. I saw the moment when his...
Ahh, it still makes me cringe. I always HATED having to "go around the room" and say shit in high school. My stutter isnt severe so for the most part I got by, but one day in class we had to say our n...
Third grade, I was asked to read out loud from a book in class and for about thirty seconds I struggled and failed to get the word "says" out before I finally had to pretend to not know what the word ...
I stopped counting them .. But if i have to answer, i'd say that i have a very heavy and intense stutter. and i made a lot of effort to pronounce a single word. Years ago, a man who was really distu...
