There are some jobs that we simply can't do. If your job completely relies on fluent speaking, it's going to be very difficult to advance in that area. Just like people in wheel chairs can't be linem...

This entire post is ludicrous! Sorry, I do not agree at all. I am a severe stutterer of 28 yrs and my tongue even protrudes at times and this "benefits" is similar to a beaten wife saying her husband ...

For me only point 1 and 2 apply. My stuttering only demotivates me. It prevents me from expressing myself or even having a conversation with people. Even if I do improve myself it would be hard to sh...

I admire the people posting in this thread, but seriously I can't even say my name, so something like this is impossible for me. I'm a truck driver, because I can't be the things I would have liked to...

Yeah, that's how I feel most of the time, and then I wonder how fundamentally different my life would be if I didn't stutter. My anxiety holds me back more than the stutter....

Through my younger years I dealt with my stuttering rather well in my opinion. I had my issues like every other young person going through school like occasional teasing and being self conscience abou...

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...

I can't function.

I can't function. Ever since an extremely stressful/traumatic event a month ago, my stutter has gone from moderate to severe. I find it very difficult to complete simple sentences without getting comp...
