I hate to throw a wrench in things, but I have to disagree with asking him if he wants you to order for him. I find special treatment like that demoralizing and belittling. My advice is to treat him ...

Thanks for the advice! I can see how someone could think they're helping but actually coming off across as rude. This is exactly the point of view I need. I think he "blocks". He mentioned getting rea...

Extreme depression caused by stutering

Extreme depression caused by stutering Ive been extremely depressed lately due to my stutter. Its the fact that I think what I could have been or i couldve had, if i had not stuttered. I seriously don...

It's great that you don't let your stuttering bother you, and I can understand having a more difficult time relating to some posts here. But if your stuttering never bothered you before then I wouldn'...

Well..she spoke her mind. I give her that, usually people keep it to themselves giving an impression that they do not actually feel. I'd rather people be more upfront. Stuttering is just another var...

Similar things happened to me, people i thought they were my friends made fun of me when im absent. Jokes like " Don't call him ! He will empty your balance. Message him, that will be enough ". ...

Thought of yet another one, sort of. This isn't *really* a situation where I specifically stuttered, but it's related. At a job I had in high school, a coworker asked another coworker (who was my goo...

"you should have somebody else call and ask your questions for you" That's really awful. When I was a teen I worked in fast food too and I have to say it was actually one of the few places where I di...

This used to be crippling for me when I was in school. My name is difficult to pronounce (and I always get a bad block on it when I try to say it). The first day of school when teachers asked me to pr...

Oooh, I thought of another one. This is a memory I haven't thought about for a very long time. My first job was in fast food. I had just been hired and hadn't heard anything about my schedule yet, so...

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...

Lots of experiences as a child but worst was as an adult when a co-worker who I thought was my friend made fun of me stuttering in the middle of the office and everyone busted out laughing. Hurt my f...
