I've been lucky, the only instances I've even made fun of is when people genuinely don't know what's going and make a joke to break the awkwardness. Usually, I have to explain to randoms that I have o...

You couldn't have spelled out your problems any better. You're stutter isn't what's going you back, but its all the beliefs you've just highlighted which are killing your life. There are surely things...

My stutter has completely defined my life thus far... When I was a kid I decided the best way to combat my stutter was to simply not talk. If I wasn't embarrassed whilst speaking, I would never feel b...

The earliest I remember is being made fun of in kindergarten. It remained bad till middle school, that is when I got professional help. That was when good days started outnumbering bad days. Growing u...

Scandinavian here, started stuttering when I was approximately 6 years old. Speech therapy is free so I could take advantage of that throughout my childhood/early teens. Was mostly just good for confi...

Hi! I too started stuttering around age 12/13, weirdly enough it was also after I had watched A Fish Called Wanda. School was tough but now I'm in my twenties it has gotten a lot better/I've learnt to...

Haven't traveled the world yet, but I certainly wouldn't let something as trivial as a stutter stop you. Before you yell at me, I'm a long suffering stutterer too. But you are an able-bodied, independ...

I say go for it! Just do it. Even it no one ever listens to it or even likes it, the process will likely be a good experience. So do it for you and f&*# what everyone else thinks. That being sai...

So, I'm trying to start a vlog.

So, I'm trying to start a vlog. I've been dying to do music reviews forever (sort of like Anthony Fantano). However, I have a moderate-severe stutter. I've been getting more and more confident about...

Aside from more fluent speaking I learned to be more open about my stutter from the clinic. Before I would do anything to hide it. From the clinic I gained an appreciation for being more open about it...

I'm glad you have such a great attitude! Do you ever tell new people that you stutter before you really converse with them or do you just address it if they ask about it? ...

First of all I would like to say that my stutter still there but nowadays I am not afraid to speak. I am able to make phone calls, ask a clerk for directions ( sometimes) when I can't find an item o...

I also do pat myself on the back when something goes right. But is there really something wrong with that?!?! I dont think so. The way I see it is a NBA player doesny make every shot he takes but when...

This is probably the most difficult yet most simple thing at the same time - you have to get use to the situation where you speak alright. For me it was the tutoring/teaching experience I had, that ...

Why I'm leaving r/Stutter...

Why I'm leaving r/Stutter... My stuttering used to impede me a lot. Other kids wouldn't talk to me, and they wouldn't let me play the telephone game. I never talked in class. I learned to overcom...

You're right. I guess it's just hard for me to feel sorry for people that don't stutter and are still afraid of public speaking because of what I've been through. I try to encourage people by it rat...

Thank you, i think my stutter has taught me that disabilities aren't a joke and it is why i am the person i am today. Who knows, maybe if i spoke normally i wouldn't be as gentle and caring and would ...

Ya.. but sometimes I am amazed by how I still get by sometimes.. I wont lie that it doesnt effect my life, but I do like to give myself a pat on the back at times too... When I was younger, I did not ...

Good on you man. I used to be bothered by public speaking, then about halfway through college I decided that I didn't care what they thought. I was going to give the best damn speech they had ever h...

29yo here who has stuttered my whole life, and yes, it does get better. Luckily for me, my mom is actually a speech pathologist, so she's always helped out and been very understanding. I'm really so...
