I love it to. That's exactly how I am. The first few sentences are stutter filled but as i present it gets better. It's nice knowing I'm not the only one! You're welcome!...

I love seeing his fluency improve as he gains confidence and becomes more comfortable as the speech goes along. Thanks for sharing....

I think one really important thing to remember is that speaking fluently would not make you any more "worthy" or "better" of a person. That's an easy trap for us to fall into and its something I have ...

Well actually for me it's the opposite. When I speak loudly and raise my voice, I am more fluent than normal volume speech. I actually get excited and start talking very fast without incident. Normal ...

Covert stutterers are pretty common. I personally can't handle it. It's just a bad way to live. I've found that people are mostly understanding, and if they're not, then they're not the kind of people...

Yep. 1-1 is much easier to manage, though I'm often so relieved simply to be rolling along well that I go on much longer than I need to, even after having had my stutter relatively under control for s...

I avoid this subreddit actually most of the times because I don't want to be confronted with my "issue", I subscribed a long time ago when I was just new to reddit, but this came floating to my front ...

I'm a high school teacher with a moderate-to-severe stutter. I mostly have 9th and 12th graders this year, but I've taught every grade level from 6th to 12th over my career. I open every year with the...

My advice to you. * If you are teaching adolescents; Don't get worked up over them laughing about you stuttering. I recommend you make jokes as much as possible and be as funny as you can. Then if th...

I've had a pretty good few weeks trying to control my stutter. I've been far less anxious compared to the past. Grades have been really good which I think has made me feel calm thus positively impacti...

High five, fellow tall and stuttering brother! :D And you're right, those scumbags never make it to college. And if by any chance they do, I quietly note their names down in my "People whose lives I'm...

It seems like you think you're stuttering because your mind is telling you you're going to. But more likely (as is the case with me, personally) your mind is telling you're going to stutter on a word ...

A waitress complimented my boots and asked me where I got them. But both "amazon" and "online" were way too difficult for me to say, so I instead lied and said I didn't remember. It was a big failure....

Similar to HS really. Most people just are a bit confused by it the first time they hear you stutter then just accept it. Occasional laugh the first time (I just stare them down for a bit). You just d...

yeah i get that...did people know that you stuttered? Not one person, aside from my parents who half way dont believe me, know i stutter...ive gotten so good as word subbing that its second nature. it...

I can't speak for every college in the world, but you would be surprised just how little people care. My stutterering has decreased quite a bit in the past year. People are just nicer, more approachab...

I enjoy that you are critical to what Im saying, since you learn most from those who dont think like yourself. Thank you. For me, stating that something is because of a brain difference makes me mad. ...

Today i overheard a handful of kids looking for a specific onion in the grocery store but could not find it. Being the culinary champion i am i found the onions they were searching for and said "hey i...

I said nothing about this being a spontaneous event. It has taken me my whole life doing this. I dont think I gain anything of value by thinking stuttering is a brain difference (even if it may be). A...

It's not really this subreddit in particular, but there is something about being in community with other stutterers that makes my own stutter sound more "normal." I attend a stuttering support group o...
