holy sh*t she stutters a lot, i admire that she found the courage to writte a book about it...

There was one day where I just woke up and said "I refuse". Simply put: I refuse to let this limit my potential. I refuse to let this stop me from making friends, getting jobs, excelling at things I'm...

How did you manage to get ownership of your own stutter? I know this is what I need to do but it's so damn hard....

@PrinceofTruth No point in treating a fellow stutterer like that. He's right in a sense. We have a **choice**. Yes stuttering can have sucky effects. But we can choose to either remain down in the dum...

PM me my friend. It really isn't. It is what you make it, I'd love to try and help out. And, my stutter isn't the worst but it still affects my daily life in a major way. I just choose to look at it ...

I feel like my stutter has made me humble in a way. I can't lie I could have seen myself being a ego filled dickshit but growing up with a stutter has really let me understand more people and that no ...

It shows me who the good people are in life. The kind of people that have the patience to wait while you stutter and value the content of what you have to say, are the good-hearted people in life. ...

It has made me a more observant person, by listening more (and speaking less), and a more empathetic person. But mostly it has (at times) made me proud of myself for how far I've come. Ten years ago I...

Pretty good conversation starter. Not that I often want conversation. People are generally really interested in my stutter and sympathetic towards me, which gives me hope for humanity. More importan...

Not a fan of negativity, so, what's the BEST thing about your stutter?

Not a fan of negativity, so, what's the BEST thing about your stutter? I'm 23 years old and have been a lifelong stutterer. Obviously we're in a very special club and most people will not know the con...

Congrats! you could keep yourself from thinknig about your stutter too much?...

The confidence definitely doesn't come first but you will have these little glimpses of confidence here and there. You may have a day where your fluency and stuttering is nonexistent and you talk grea...

Do you feel your increase in confident is the greatest contributing factor to your current level of fluency? Do you think the confidence came before the comfortability or vice versa? These are all thi...

I'm 35 now and, long story short, it got better on its own so there's hope. It was really bad as a child and in elementary school, it almost went away in high school, but came back and got pretty bad...

21/m here stutterer for 12 years. I never really went to a speech therapist, just that one time when I was 13/14. My parents where concerned that sometimes I had blocks and stumbled upon my words. Ba...

I don't know if it was being afraid of missing anything but i knew that no one was going to make it easier for me on purpose. My dad always told me the squeaky wheel gets the oil and here i was just a...

There is no cure, only control/comfort. But when you have people like Bruce Willis, Sam Jackson, Joe Biden, etc... who have accomplished so much despite having a stutter, i think it's safe to say you ...

Toastmasters is great. I dont know if they have that organization in turkey. Practicing public speaking and learning to accept yourself and keep from thinking negative worrying thoughts help me the mo...

My only real thought when it comes to suicide: It's better to live for one more second than to die right now. Anyway, I've developed some shortcuts and quick fixes (taking quick breaths in immediate...

I agree man. No one really cares. None of my friends cared especially when I told them. Most found it fascinating as well. I onlybthink of it as a personality trait. We can have heaps of great speakin...
