I personally get very annoyed by it, unless I'm giving some kind of cue that I need help looking for a word. If it's friends it doesn't bother me as much, but if another person does it that's not a cl...

I also had a rude friend who I eventually dropped. He was a dumb guy, and what he did was funny stuff. But too much rudeness....

1. texting is your friend (I text both of my significant others every day, I'm known as the well-spoken one in our polycule) 2. work on not sounding frustrated with yourself, it makes you seem much mo...

When people react like that I stare then right in the face keep eye contact for the length of time it takes me to say my piece. THEY can feel uncomfortable about MY stammer. 50% of the time it works ...

I give them the dirty look and keep talking. I’m not taking their BS. If someone does pass the paper, I’ll take your idea....

I’ve stuttered since I could even speak and I’m currently 26. I work security at a Hospital and have to talk to people a lot on a daily basis. These situations are not always good and it can bring out...

this is a good idea. It can be subtle enough that they assume they noticed me rather than me actively trying to get their attention...

Yes, you aren’t alone. I work security at a hospital and need to talk to people all the time. If someone isn’t looking at me what I tend to do to get their attention is make some sort of noise. Exampl...

I have found that explaining to people that I have a stutter works. Most people are understanding and will learn to NOT mock you. The ones who don’t learn, just dont have any saving. I’m sorry this ha...

To be fair. I live in a country with almost zero guns at all. I don't mean you have instantly had to start winding but you don't let people walk over you....

Do the work to fix what happened. Talk to her. Tell her you stutter. If you leave it as is, this episode is likely to haunt you. >just mentally gave up. Don't let that be the end of the story. Don...

Keep meeting people and be who you are. Don't be ashamed and don't tolerate any disrespect. Surround yourself with people who cherish you....

I am in the middle of watching. The part at 2:17 resonates with me. "If someone tells me not to stutter, they are basically telling me not to talk." Imagine someone saying "hey, don't do that tap tap...

Wanted to add the #1 thing that you can offer them to step over the awkwardness they may feel in honest ignorance... Is to, when they make that face say "excuse me" like you had politely held in a bur...

Professional stutterer here for 40 years. What reaction they give should really not matter to you. But if it does bother you, just let them know that you’ve a stutter. I can bet that if I start talk...

Which of the sisters told you she doesn't want the negative energy ? Any you should not talk to her at all from now on, set a boundary with her. If I was you I'd took the chance to be weird and annoyi...

Sounds like you are doing a lot of great things already! Being open about it and not being ashamed is a huge step. I HATED it at first when I was a kid but I used to call places and ask simple questio...

Very sorry to hear your sister treated you like this and made you feel like a nuisance for having a stutter. I went through this same issue with my brother when I was younger (28 now) and what helped ...

It doesn't need to be SUCH a hard stance but if somebody is weird about it you can certainly hold them at arm's length to make sure it's not a pattern/they're not a total dick/they're worthy of more c...

It’s a Great initiative, will definitely like to participate. It would be possible for me to meet virtually! People are usually desensitised towards The Stutter because ‘everyone has it at some point ...
