I'm sorry you're going through a hard time, I've been there myself quite a few times. But I've learned something, everyone is going through their own crap. We're stuck in a world of verbal people, we ...

Haha. All the best in search man. For me, stuttering sadly has stripped me off the need for any emotional attachments. Just too many rejections......

The only things I have said today was "Hi!" when I passed the neighbor in the hallway and "No thanks." when the cashier asked if I wanted the receipt. I live alone in a one person student apartment an...

Meh, just went to classes then went to a college basketball game but left mid way through because I was thinking about different things and just reflecting on things while watching the game/ occasiona...

I was utterly exhausted today but other than that, today was a good day. I really did not speak to too many people today outside of email. Thank God for email....

I really understand your frustration, I speak a lot with people I know, even if I stutter, I just keep going, and I don't mind to laugh about it. The thing is with people I don't know so well, I just ...

I most often know in advance when a word will become a struggle, which at least gives me some time to think of similar alternative words. The problem is that it often makes me choose to stay quiet whe...

My stuttering is never going away, is it?

My stuttering is never going away, is it? I'm a 16 year old girl that has stuttered really badly since the age of 11. I never had any kind of speech impairment before, it came out of the blue . I've b...

You’re not alone my friend. All my friends (From Highschool) are all going out and stuff and I’m just here alone.:...

I just joined reddit about an hour ago and stuttering was the first subreddit that I joined. Others may come here and tell you that you should seek help but I must say I have thought of suicide a mill...

I deal with block stutter a lot too. It's so frustrating when I'm listening to a bunch of people talking and I want to say something but I just can't get it out. It's probably the reason why I keep to...

Depressed and alone... stopped trying to hang out with people because they think I’m rude for being quiet. When I tell people I stutter they say “oh I didn’t even notice” - yeah because I don’t say mu...

Yep. I definitely isolate myself often because it is so exhausting dealing with people. My happy place is inside my home while hanging out with my pets. I am so bad at carrying a conversation. I am ho...

i've been to one of the manhattan meetups. they were good people but i didnt feel like i could connect with anyone there. they all stuttered like me, but it felt like stuttering was just a secondary t...

But wouldnt your stutter get worse after years of not speaking or interacting with anyone ? Mine does , if i dont step out of my comfort zones and gake the initiative in conversation for a long time...

It’s part of accepting who you are. I stutter all my life. I hate socializing with others cause I know I’m gonna stutter....

Perhaps we should analyze this notion of uncomfort a little. How do you conclude that people are uncomfortable? And to which extent does it happen? I'm also suspecting a feedback loop where you perc...

Absolutely. And then suddenly I just go nonverbal because I'm left with no energy whatsoever. Whenever I have a busy day ahead where I know I'm gonna have to talk to people, I wake up and immediately ...

I don't feel like it's unhealthy. I'm not unhappy and I can still connect with others. But I think every stutterer can relate to an inner anxiety that they won't be able to fulfill a duty (social or o...

I don't mean to alarm you, but that does not sound healthy. At all. If your only expression of helplessness is to make a loud noise while you're alone, I think you've really isolated yourself. You've ...
