Good luck my friend, I hope it all goes amazingly well for you and that you are able to manage your stutter or get rid of it completely. And if it doesn't work? then that's just the life you, I and m...

That is really, really tough about your mom. I assume you're a teenager or young enough to be living/dependent on your parents. A good speech therapist SHOULD be talking directly to your parents/mom a...

You become uncomfortable because it's like a mirror and you (subconciously) worry if it looks like that when you speak too. There are people who don't stutter that get uncomfortable when listening t...

I had a teacher at my school who has a pretty bad stutter. It honestly really helped me; he was very confident and would often crack jokes. It showed me the light at the end of the tunnel....

It helps my migraines mostly by 1. dulling the pain. 2. making me forget there was even a migraine to begin with. Number 2 happens more often that #1 does (it's very easy to go from mild to m...

Has anyone here "grown out" of their stutter as they got older?

Has anyone here "grown out" of their stutter as they got older? Lifelong stutterer who just discovered this subreddit. Anyways... When I was younger, like in elementary/middle school, my stutter was ...

I think it's good you've come here for support. If you talk to enough people here online, they'll tell you about many other techniques and strategies we've used to cope. Suicide is definitely not the ...

Wow, that's fascinating. My friends and family know what's up with my stutter, so there's no pressure. Cheers to hoping your stutter gets better! ...

Usually after a stuttering episode, the teacher and students will act as though it never happened. Its nice having the elephant in the room addressed....

The best way to talk to someone with a stutter?

The best way to talk to someone with a stutter? A good day to you all! I was wondering if your community could help me? I have just made a new friend who has a minor stutter and I am after some advi...

It's nice knowing someone else is going through the same issues. Maybe some day we'll get out of this stuttering funk :) thanks for your replies I really appreciate it <3 ...

Good on you for offering the help. It is pretty rare to encounter other stutterers in the real world I have found. My world changed when I joined a group. Giving back is a wonderful thing to do. ...

I think you're spot on when you say that people don't mean to be rude. In their mind they're trying to be funny. I also get the "your stutter is cute" bit. I often don't know how to think about that...

I actually kind of love when people hear it for the first time and either make a joke or ask something like "what the hell was that, are you alright?" and watching their reaction when you say you have...

Thank you so much for your feedback. I totally agree with you also. I'll give someone a second chance on a joke, but some people just really aren't worth it if all they do is try to attack the surface...

Can't even tell you what inspired me to search this... but it has made me feel like I'm not alone. Sometimes I feel like the ugliest person in the world... and that I will never be able to do everyth...

It's about 1% of a population will stutter. So, most cities of any size will have a small community of people who stutter. Like, my university has 48,000 ish people. That's still 480 people who stutte...

well, we've got 7 million inhabitans. stuttering is, what a few percent? maybe even less. it's a lot of people if you put them in a room together (would recommend a great big hall, though), but outsid...

That's crazy. It's so bizarre that there isn't really anything for stuttering around the world relative to anything else. There's over 3 million alone in the US who stutter, but there really isn't muc...

Rule sticky's are always good. In regards to rule #2, i think some people just need an accepting place where they can come and vent frustrations to people who understand that they might not be able t...
