Or WORST of all- when you say something to someone in conversation completely fluently without any stuttering and they ask you to repeat yourself, so you stutter as much as possible...

For sure lol. Another one I've learned is to silently skip the first letter of consonant words, such as "onathan" for "Jonathan". People's brains fill in the slight gap and usually nobody mentions it ...

I kind of understand this, there's ppl moments where I let someone know I stutter, or I'll start saying something and then it'll come out wierd and I'll explain and then for some reason it's like the ...

I always do something like "I appreciate it sir/ma'am, thank you" because once I'm rolling I can get the "thank you" out fine. Saying it in a different pitch, or like more of a happy go lucky sort of ...

yes!! Or when we're going around doing introductions and everyone just says their name but I pull out the whole "Hey, my name is..."...

Finally someone who has a hard time saying Thank you like me, every time I tried it genuinely can’t come out of my mouth...

I find it helps sometimes if I slip in a word before to make it come out smoother, so if "Thank you" isn't going to work I can say "Oh, thank you!" or sometimes even adding something at the end like "...

Yea I have trouble saying thank you. But for some reason I don’t have trouble saying “thank you I appreciate it” so I just say that or if all else fails I’ll do a thumbs up n a head nod....

I know its not what you asked for but you should'nt be avoiding words. It just makes them even more intimidating and stressful when you try to say them in the future. If people get frustrated or ann...

Maybe being the asshole helps, stop the “thank yous”, and be selfishly focused on yourself. Your heart is good that’s all matters....

Well, it seems that you are more interested in making claims than arguments so good luck with that in the future...

All that text and apparently you can't understand simple English. OP made perfect sense, just because you choose not to understand it doesn't meant it's nonsensical. And no, it's nowhere near even cl...

All that text instead of just reading my post. I literally said that not everyone has to be an activist. If you want to invent some valid reasons for OP to not pursue it further, that’s fine. I was si...

Expecting to be treated with dignity and not be discriminated against despite a handicap is not ”living a life of lies”, dude. Maybe you’ll understand when you grow up a little bit....

OP you should write to your local MP or Councillor about this. They can raise it with the council and the government to actually make this happen. If it gets enough support behind it you can definetel...

Please report this stupid commentator. He is in fact a very good example of dickheads which we have to deal with each and every day. Sigh....

I've found that the vast majority of people I talk with are very patient and understanding. If I'm entering a situation where I think I might have blocks, I try and tell the person beforehand and they...

I don't think I've told many (if any) people that I stutter. It is obvious to me. That said, I don't blame you for not telling her. I do think you should tell her to gauge her reaction from her abo...

You have a headspace of what is the best way to have people not be assholes because you have a stutter. Also your going into the medical which also requires a great deal of communication. Under stress...

I think as a stutterer, we should give fluent ppl a chance. Many don't even understand the dynamics of it and don't regard it as a disability. So,,,, yeah I'm biased too, if someone still doesn't und...
