I filled them both out. Thank you so much for being on the front lines doing all of this research! I actually contact Dr. Jackson not too long ago asking for one of his papers, but also to ask about ...

Thank you for completing the survey! It's not meant to invoke sadness. But, the point of this and a lot of our research is that there's broader impact to the stuttering condition than researchers, cli...

My reality of stuttering

My reality of stuttering (17m)- I don't know when this happened, but sometime in the past, I realised a truth. Life doesn't get easier, it only gets worse. No matter what, someone will always make fun...

I am going to see a Therapist after all this Crazy Shit is over with. i'm the same way as you i like to spend most if not all of my time in my room/Hanging out with my parents and my Brother but that ...

If u can't go to a doctor I don't think there's anything for you to do really. The only way I cope with my anxiety is never leaving my bedroom so if u're not the type of guy that spends weeks without ...

Exactly! On the outside always looking in. Most of my friends feel very embarrassed about my stutter, and my family thinks it’s annoying. If you have someone you can talk to maybe just over text, that...

Yeah I’m awkward as fuck. I’m convinced that I’m socially stunted because of my stutter. When I was 4-8 or 9 my stutter was really bad. I still stutter but not nearly as bad. I only spoke when I absol...

It's been hard. When I've tried I've been rejected. Now I'm too scared to even try. But, I am not desperate though. I kind of start to enjoy my own solitude. I think it's important to know that life g...

It does suck. But at least 1% of all of us know what it's like. That's better than being the only one. Anyways, message me if you want to chat. Isolation sucks more. Zoom is booming right now too....

I am a suicide survivor. In my teen years, my stutter was so severe that I had zero friends. Living a life of isolation from age 6 to 15 really breaks you down. Please reach out for help. You ...

I kinda tried to kill myself once I guess. It wasnt necessarily because of stuttering, but since stuttering affected all the other reasons I assume that if I didnt stutter I wouldnt tried to kill myse...

It’s a very lonely life at work. I have a very severe stutter, so I rarely talk to my coworkers and they never talk to me (in the context of casual socializing to bond over non-work stuff). They’ll on...
