Eminem, whose music Ed Sheeran credits as helping him with his stutter, joined the British pop star on stage recently in Detroit. Ed is on our list of Famous People Who Stutter on our website!
Elwood: I had a good friend in the Air Force who really had a stammer. After two beers his stutter went away. So when we would go out to the English pubs at night he was under so much social anxiety and other stuff that it was impossible for him to do anything until he had two beers, then he was cool.
James: Mel Tillis would be proud.
Janet: My dad stuttered throughout his life, except when he played his guitar and sang. Or yelled! We preferred the singing!
Maggie: Yes. I attended the Successful Stuttering Management Program in 1997, and advertising played a huge role in our therapy. In fact, it is the singularly most significant thing I learned at the SSMP and have carried with me for 26(!) years. I do not usually advertise now, but the humbling act of advertising changed how I view myself as a stutterer. The changes that happened in my psyche stuck.

Chris: I have done this many times and got kicked out of job interviews within 30 seconds. Finally I found an employer who understands and gave me a chance at a job. When it was time for a career change with the same employer I had to convince them I knew the job. They let me job shadow the dept and then they found a spot where I fit the best. Now I am happy with the position I am in and I still have my hard days at communicating but I have found ways to help me communicate to users at the company.

Julie: But you also don't have to disclose if you don't want to! It's personal preference, and just because you don't self-disclose doesn't make you any less confident!
