I will fake an incoming phone call and leave the room if someone starts playing a name game for introductions....

That's so real, in my country there's a board game really similar to UNO, and there's the exact same rule but you need to say "last card in my hand" (in my language it's different of course) and I don...

UNO, i can't say uno when im down to one card. So, basically, im doomed to never win because i always end up drawing 2 cards hhhh, stupid ass rule...

What's the most random thing you avoid because of stuttering?

What's the most random thing you avoid because of stuttering? I avoid wearing band shirts in public because I'm afraid people will ask me to name 5 songs and I won't be able to say it and they'll thin...

this is kind of a weird tip but….if you bear down like you’re going #2, you activate your vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system. it sends your body’s attention away from the sympathetic nervo...

Help me overcome my stuttering

Help me overcome my stuttering This is the first time I've talked about it in a community, I'm a 23 year old stutterer and I think I started stuttering when I was 8 or 9 years old. And I think that no...

Speech Therapy as Adult UK?

Speech Therapy as Adult UK? I did speech therapy as a child when I was 6 or 7 years old. I remember a lot of it was me reading from a comic/magazine and the therapist clicking a button every time I st...

It always helped me to disclose that I stutter at the start of an interview. Kind of put me at ease like I wasn't hiding anything anymore, and helped me be more fluent. I find we stutter the most when...

Does stutter makes you apear soft

Does stutter makes you apear soft when I stutter or my speech gets tense, i feel how other perceive me as soft or overly gentle .. like I’m fragile or less assertive than I actually am It’s strange b...

I think doing this could be harmful in the long run, because eventually you’ll have to face countless job interviews after finishing school. Avoiding these challenges now might only make the truly imp...

But you don’t stutter now? That sounds like a developmental stutter. Which is, I believe more common than a brain defect which causes life long stuttering. Which I have. I went to speech therapy in mi...

I second this comment. You either do or you don’t, if it is we a developmental stutter as a kid, that was fixed with speech therapy, okay I get it, you used to stutter. But when it’s not a development...

You are wrong. Thousands and thousands and thousands of stutterers around the world are happily married. In fact, \*most\* people with stutter have a happy relationship. I'm pretty sure that even if y...

Way to misinterpret the post. I’m saying people who don’t even speak English as a first language can present better than me, that’s how down bad I am. It’s like me presenting in Chinese better than an...

Y’all I just pulled the Mitch McConnell meme after like 4 words of a 100 point college presentation Rip my grade, idk what to do anymore. I can have perfect slides but it doesn’t matter if I can’t pre...

I took a public speaking class, and I purposefully stuttered a bit more than I usually would so I made the presentation seem longer. We had to do ones where it was 5-15 min long. Use it to your a...

I know your pain, and I'm truly sorry that happened to you. I live in the U.S. and have also been rejected after admitting I stutter. People say it makes a difference if you admit it, that it helps, b...
