I mean OP literally said that after they disclosed their stutter, the interview got immediately canceled. Yes I'm pretty sure they found another person in the exact same moment! Just because hyperse...

Well I use every time whenever I feel block is coming,I just stop reduce the tension then I could pronounce the word easily ...

Sometimes get blocked on Q, K words. I reset my mouth, take breath and then speak. Basically a block comes for 3 second so you have to show other that you are saying it but slowly. Other person will n...

Funny how fluent people don’t even think about it, often just saying whatever comes to mind, while we deliberately try to choose every word. It could be a strength for us though - when a silent perso...

There’s a difference to getting rejected because of negative traits and personalities, and getting rejected because of a disability you have no control over. It’s like saying that white women die of ...

Definitely give his Short Course a read. I read it sometime last year and it’s been helping me tremendously. Still not where I want to be, but day by day my speech is improving since I have heavily re...

I have the book. It has helped me a lot. Not saying everything in there I agree with or I think is perfect. However, I think the main idea that the book provides and that has led to success in my life...

The fact that I stutter myself changes the nuance here. My stutter may actually be worse than yours, yet I consciously make an effort to speak slowly. You may have taken my comment the wrong way — but...

I don't apply to any jobs which are talking oriented. Only jobs which require no talking OR jobs which would otherwise require communication between coworkers (which is 95% of all jobs), but the ver...

I am not gonna be like toxic positive stutterers so I am gonna tell you the actual truth of life as a stutterer. If you have a bad stutter just give up on jobs where more than 50% of the job is talki...

I know, you can't tell for sure. That's why I said the best you can do is point out inconsistencies. Like if you have a back and forth conversation with a recruiter online, and then you disclose your ...

" stutterers get hired for jobs every day" Not when you disclose your stutter and they cancel the interview. That's happened to me several times. Including minimum wage blue collar jobs....

It's good that you are seeing hypersensitivity. This is something we can address ourselves. Yes, I'd imagine most if not all stutterers are very sensitive about public shame and embarrassment from the...

How do you know for certain you got rejected for your stuttering if they didnt mention it? It's currently a rough economy for everyone out there, which makes finding a job hard for everyone. Starting ...

I used to hire lots of people over many years (as a stutterer). There are many criteria for hiring the right person for a role. Technical skills are only one factor. Attitude, presentation, interest i...

It’s interesting how the same anxiety can hit someone even if they hardly stutter. It sounds like you’re punishing yourself for absolutely no reason. Give yourself a break. Let yourself be imperfect l...

I've done great for myself despite having a very strong stutter, but goddamn I'm not ashamed to admit I still fantasize about the day I can attach a little black mirror bullshit to my temple and be ab...

I’m speaking slowly and picking and choosing what words to say and what words to avoid saying, that’s why you can’t tell. If I were to speak more naturally you would see the stutter. Other then that m...

Thanks, yea if I slow down and carefully pick and choose my words then not may people can tell If I stutter or not....
