This is so encouraging, keep it up 🎉

The resume or application may contain a section titled "Personal Interests" or something similar. There write "National Stuttering Association".

This presentation resonates with me a great deal. By my early 30’s (I am now 71) my stuttering had become such a serious problem at work that my financial survival was in jeopardy. I recognized that “I had to do something”, so I read widely and deeply, including medical journals, and learned that some physicians had found by accident or trial-and-error that certain medications helped some adult stutterers. To make a long story short, I used that information and “became my own doctor”, and found that a combination of Prozac and Clorazepate greatly helped me. (Had Paxil been available then, I would have taken it instead of those two meds). I later recognized that I was suffering from ptst early trauma and 1,000 cuts trauma. The meds I was taking were in reality treating not only my stuttering, but those mental conditions as well. The second half of my life has been much better than the first half. I greatly wish that I had recognized my problem earlier and taken action then. WARNING: Clorazepate has a sedative effect, and I once fell asleep while driving on an interstate at 70mph and was almost killed. I had a second traffic accident that could have ended badly, but did not.

There is no force of this earth that is as powerful as love. It can make a ship float on dry land.

For many people who stutter, probably the majority in the case of men, stuttering creates even more difficulty in employment than in our personal lives. And the job interview is often one of the most difficult aspects. I don’t know what to say here. I do know that even within the same occupation, companies differ one from another in the degree to which communication is verbal. Perhaps try to find a company in which the verbal communication is less than the others. Another strategy is to “get your foot in the door” by becoming an intern or contractor. The benefit of this is that the company can then see with its own eyes “what you can do”. This may be more important than you realize; a company is taking a big chance anytime it hires someone it has not worked with before in some capacity, and may reason “the devil you know is better than the one you don’t know”.

Great to hear your story, Jia! I had a similar experience while attending UT @Austin. I had to present results of a team project. I only had 3 minutes and it took me 1.5 minutes just to say my name. This was before the effective speech therapy I took in 1988.

It's crazy how few likes and comments on this powerful video after five years. However confidently stuttering feels like a contradiction.

I had a homie that had a serious stutter. Since my grandma was old school she gave him several phases to say. It helped him out a lot. My other homie grandpa called him Stutter box . He is a good friend and he's married with kids. 😊 I always waited for the thought to be complete.

When is next Zoom meeting?

Hey! Did Tim Flynn star in an episode of the MTV show “True Life”? If so, he’s been a MAJOR inspiration of mine, since 2007.

Hello there..

I stutter too guys. The key is to let them know early on that you have stuttering. This reduces the anxiety because you're no longer hiding it. Please, you have to go and approach random people. Tell them you want to work on your social skills and if they don't mind having a short conversation. Trust me guys - get out there and build up your confidence. Oh, and MOST people don't even care - you'd become likable instantly for being honest.

I know this is three years old but I just found you and wow, does this resonate !

Thanks for Sharing! Regards from Mexico! Amazing job!!

Thank you Dr. TRACEY for sharing your story. Yes, I agree 100%, every thing we want is on the other side of fear.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing!

Be straight forward honest and direct. The only person we can control is ourselves. If they don’t want to deal with it then move on. Id rather have it end quickly then having it drag out.
