52 and still stuttering but i embrace it and it humbles me. it makes me who i am, and everyone has some sort of disability....

I agree with you that I wouldn't be who am I or have the type of mindset I got if I didn't have a stutter. I do like the man I've become and how it shaped me for the most part. With that being said, ...

Speaking and communication are not the same thing. Yes all living beings communicate to each other but we are the only species that can speak. The fact we can speak is the reason we evolved past oth...

i was thinking about the same thing yesterday evening like how this thing makes me so much more unique than anyone, not to feed the ego, but with time this became an inherent part of me. and i am the ...

Speaking is far from the “most human thing.” It does not separate us from other animals, because it’s simply how we communicate with one another. Other living things communicate with each other in the...

I feel this. I have somehow developed a voice that people have told me sounds like Tom Delonge's singing voice (Tom from blink-182). I have heard many times that it makes me sound/seem gay. I don't mi...

Agree with this. I like OP’s voice. To OP: most people don’t like the sound of their own voice. Mine makes me cringe, haha ...

You don't have a strange voice, you have a normal voice. Like you, I have a slightly sweet, non-rude voice, and I've been made comments and teased about it in the past. Many men mask their insecuritie...

You want to change it cuz speaking is probably the most human thing you can do. Speech is the thing that separates us from animals so even a mild stutter can cause big issues. I have a severe stut...

Interesting. I have a physical disability part of my identity. I wouldn’t change that. But stutter yes, and mine is mild....

i am pretty much sure that my stuttering is more of a psychological than a physical disability...

It's js how we gotta live bro we gotta compromise. But there are a lot of actors and stuff who used to have stutter but now they dont...

The stutter definitely gave me character development. I am also grateful for it, but I am also ready to let it go ...

I’m glad I stutter.

I’m glad I stutter. Sayings like “you are not your stutter” or “you are more than your stutter,” while well-intentioned, are not helpful to me. My stutter is an important part of who I am—an often fru...

I totally get you. You say that you've lost sight of who you are, but you haven't! Like you said, you have the passion, you have the self-love. Stuttering aside, you know how much of an amazing, capab...

Here's some advice from someone who has probably two decades of experience on you: You can't run away from life. Sooner or later it all catches up on you anyway. Go into all those feared situations wi...

Right. Like for example trying to say "I'd like one of these apples!" And instead I go, "I'd like one of those ap- the uh, the uhhh, that thing--" I'm so ashamed of how my stuttering is (may be) perce...

Literally this. Soooo much brilliant advice on this sub. For me, same as many have said. With time, you care less and the stutter is just like whatever. Unfortunately I had to live through it to know ...

Stuttering has really affected my true self

Stuttering has really affected my true self this is a throwaway account so thats why my karma's so low, I just need somewhere to vent. I'm a teenage girl in highschool and I swear, I'm naturally conf...

I simply forget I have a stutter. I don’t care anymore. I’m 38 and proud of my stutter. It’s not my whole identity, but it has shaped who I am today and how I value my existence on earth. In other wor...
